Dear Family,
Transfers
were this last week, I am SO HAPPY I GET TO STAY IN PAPILLION! I was
really nervous, because everyone thought I was going to be booted!
President even said my time as an STL was coming to an end, but some how
I snuck one more transfer in.. I am so lucky.There is so many great
things happening here and I am grateful Heavenly Father gave me another
transfer here.
A lot of things happened this week so I will try and hit the high lights!
Wednesday
might have been one of the best days of my mission. We has a lesson
with our investigator Kris, it was an amazing lesson. She lives next
door to a member and they are really good friends. She was there for the
lesson and we taught her the Gospel of Jesus Christ(which is my
favorite lesson to teach)! We set her for baptism! She seriously is so
prepared it is crazy. I don't even feel like I have to say anything in
the lesson, because the spirit teaches her everything. She is so close
to the spirit and wants to learn more and change her life. After we left
the lesson, we had the opportunity to go to the temple. Sister Fuller
taught this amazing lady at the beginning of her mission and she
received her endowments. I was able to do the family name mom sent me.
How cool is that? We set someone for baptism, got to see someone receive
their own endowments and I got to go through for someone who had passed
on. It was amazing. As I was sitting in the temple, I realized that
this is why we do missionary work. I wish so badly that everyone could
understand what we understand and have the opportunity to experience the
temple. We take if for granted way too much!!! I know that we go to
church, read our scriptures, pray and so that we experience the
blessings of making covenants in the temple. You all better go to the
temple more often!
This week we got to take out the new missionaries again on their
first day. Miracles always happen when we take sisters out. I took this
sweet sister out and we were struggling finding people to talk to.
Sister Fuller took this really shy sister out and they saw some really
neat experiences.. long story short I got the copes called on me and the
new sister hahah I felt bad for the new sister. Heavenly Father always
come through though and at the last minute we met someone she was able
to give a Book of Mormon to. Heavenly Father knows what each of us need
and what lessons that we need to learn haha not that I think she needed
to get the copes called on her but that she learned a great lesson of
patience on her very first day. It will help her so much throughout her
mission!
Yesterday, I spoke in sacrament meeting and other than that it was a
wonderful day! Amy and Kris came to church. They both loved it. I was
so grateful. Kris text us after and said she can't wait to learn more.
We are going to the trail center this week with her! Speaking of the
trail center, we got to go with Amy last night. I love with trail
center. The spirit is so strong there! I am learned so much from taking
investigators there. The pioneers faith is so inspiring. It is such a
wonderful conversion tool. Amy loved it. She is still praying to know is
she should be baptized. I know she will, she just needs time. She has
such a special spirit.
Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful week. I love my family and I
am so grateful for all you do. Be good and remember what is most
important! :)
Love, Sister Page
