I went on exchanges with Sister Taylor this week! I swear we were friends in the premortal existence because we clicked so fast! We had some solid lessons and we got a few return appointments, so it was a really successful day. We also ate at all the missionary favorites. We went to FAT Shack and got some fried twinkies and fried oreos. Then for dinner, we had 1.50 scoop. Needless to say I thought I was going to die. Is it any wonder why the average weight gain in our mission is 20 pounds?
Jerri received her endowments! It was such a special day to see her make more promises with God in His holy house. I just love her so much and I know I needed to come to Greeley so that we could be friends!
We went on a micro-mission with Emily this week! Sorry, I don't have a picture, but it was super fun! She is putting in her papers soon, so it was just so good for her to get excited about her mission by experiencing first hand what missionary life is like!
Sunday was a delight! We had two members bring friends to church! Also, Laura spoke in Sacrament! One of my best experiences in Greeley has been seeing her come back to church! I am so proud of the progress she has made and I can't wait for the day she and her husband are sealed in the temple!
Yesterday, we went on mini exchanges with our sisters in Fort Collins. I went campus contacting with Hermana Gledhill! It was a blast! It made me miss ysa because I love how open young adults are to talking with you. We got them 3 solid potential people to teach. Then me and Sister Abraham went to contact people up near HORSETOOTH. We saw turkeys, deer, and horses. It was beautiful and of course Sister Abraham kept me laughing!
I will just end with my testimony. I have been reading the Book of Mormon, the Saints book, as well as the talks from this past General Conference! As I have read, I keep pondering the ninth article of faith:
9 We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God
I know that the Restoration was not a one time event, but that it continues today. How lucky we are to be a part of building the kingdom of God.
I love you all!
