I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving! We truly have so so so so much to be thankful for! We have so many blessings. This week I was especially hit with gratitude for my family. I love you all sooooo much!!!!! You are the best! I was introducing myself the other day and showing my family picture and Claire and Sonny's new school pics and I just went off on how my family members are my best friends! I love you guys!!!!!
It has been a great week! Busy, Hot, and Good!!!!! I love it!!!!
We met a really cute girl named Penny this week. She is so great. We met her last Monday and have met with her 3 times since. She loves the Book of Mormon and she is praying everyday. Her prayers are amazing!!!!! She prayed at the end of the lesson the other day and to be honest I don;t remember what she said but I remember feeling the Spirit so strong. It was amazing! She was sick yesterday but still came to church... She is wonderful. She is so sweet and she has such a great desire. I love her!!!!
Big story... so this kinda started awhile ago. You might recall me writing home about a sweet girl from Texas named Bree.... She is AMAZING! When we met she told us that she used to be a member but she removed her records a few years ago... Well she lives in our apartment building so Sister Pomeroy and I started visiting her and building a really good relationship. Now Bree is one of my dear life-long fiends. So is Jessica a awesome girl that she lives with. Oh I love them!!! Well we have seen so many miracles with Bree. I have seen her change. Her light and countenance has change. She is so happy and so giving. She is such an amazing example. I love her! She started going to church again. She came to conference with us. She has a light! Well then she started asking us wonderful questions. She also came to baptisms. She has helped Erika and Sister Liu so much. She also came out and did missionary work with us. She is awesome! Well we started talking about baptism with her and she said she knew that she would have to be baptized again but she said just not right now.... Well this week was a big miracle..... She did some research and found out her records were never removed.... SHE IS A MEMBER!!!!!! She said when she found out she was shocked but laughed. This month is the 5 year anniversary of when she thought her records were removed and this is the first year she hasn't had hard feelings about the church but that she has actually had good feelings!!!!!! AMAZING!!!! We watched the Testaments with her and she told us that her favorite part is the end when Christ says the dad's name because she said that she knows that Christ knows us all by name and that His love is so individual. She knows of His love for her. It was AMAZING! She knows it! AHHHHH! This really has been a big miracles... miracles have happen every week with her. This is a blessing I will never forget.... I am so grateful I could meet her and that we could become dear friends. I LOVE HER!!!
Also, sweet Erika is so wonderful! Since she got baptized she really just has this light. She has a desire to share the gospel. She is amazing! She prayed in sacrament yesterday. It was beautiful! She was so nervous but it was great!
I LOVE THIS WORK! I am so grateful that the Lord allows me to wear His name. I am so grateful to be His representative and to represent His church. I have become so much closer to Him. I have felt Him so near me. I have felt the peace that has come from His atoning sacrifice. I know that He lives. I am so grateful that Our Father allowed Him to suffer and die so that we might all live again. I know that Heavenly Father loves each one of us. He hears our prayers. I am so grateful for Him.
I love you all so so so so so soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!
Until next week!!!!!
