Haha, I HOPE you love me more than
all those nasty things combined!
That is AMAZING our ward is so
missionary-minded. I can't wait to get involved once home again and help in any
way I can to join in the effort to find people for the missionaries to teach.
Hope you have a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY come Wednesday...How perfect for transfers!
Me with Sister Osmond and her trainee (yes this Sister Osmond is Donny Osmond's niece) |
ALOT!
Thank you also for the quote from
President Worthen! Covenants are
ESPECIALLY conditional on our part!

This week after our meeting with Lun
Cheng, and finding out that he already has a testimony of Christ ("Without
Jesus, everything would not make sense...") we went out to the buses and
as luck would have it, we ran into a former-atheist, now-baptized LDS student
from China in the YSA Ward named Xi Lu (who we have
been trying to contact FOREVER!) I have a feeling he will be VERY instrumental
in helping fellowship Lun Cheng.
We also met with Julia and had to
drop her date for now because she will be out of town with her family for the
next two weeks, but really wants to re-set it! It was a very powerful lesson
about "The Family: A Proclamation to the World" (it being one of the
revelations she has trouble accepting regarding "women's roles"), but
after explaining it more fully and relating it to her role as a daughter of
God, she felt better about it.
One of our less-actives, Linda,
invited us to her wedding!!! She and Paul, a non-member, had been living
together but were both finally married by the bishop in the church. Afterward,
we met a lot of Paul's family, who were interested in learning more, he asked
us when we were coming over again! Yay! I truly hope that we can help this
family prepare to make covenants that will eventually lead them through the
temple.
Sorry this is ridiculously short :(
There is so much we need to do today to get prepped for Wednesday...You remain
forever in my prayers! Bah! Only 6 emails left!!!
Love you more than I love eating with
an appetite!
