Dear Family,
This past week was pretty good. I will break it down for you :)
Monday - P-day!! It was awesome to talk with the family, and then we had FHE with a group of amazing people!! The are all recent converts/investigators, and we just got to spend the time with them. It was so great!! We taught about what family home evening really is, and then talked about how it works with Sunday. We also committed the Elders' investigator who was there to come to church for 3 hours. He was having a hard time with that, and said he would be there! It was great!!! We also have dinner with a great family that night! They really welcomed us in, and took good care of us. It was awesome!!!
Tuesday - We had Zone meeting. There we got to know the missionaries in our zone a little better :) The elder that is from Guatemala has been through some hard things. It is amazing the work that he is doing. I know that the Lord prepares and helps his missionaries. I get to see that miracle every day :) We were also able to stop by and just see some great people! The less actives that we see are truly amazing! They do so
much for us, and are just great!!! We have been teaching Australian twins every Tuesday, and they are fun.
They are members, but have a hard time connecting things in the gospel, so we are helping them :) It is a lot of fun!!
Wednesday - Once again, able to see great people!! We have had a wonderful time getting to know people, and working with them. There are a lot of older people in our ward, and just getting to talk with them is great!! I love what they have to say to us!! It is amazing to hear about all of the experiences that they have had in their lives. Something that I cant wait to do when I am older with the missionaries :)
Thursday - Weekly Planning. Still not one of my favorite things to do, but it worked out! We have been able to almost have everything sorta planned out for the week. It is all working out in the end. We weren't able to see one of our investigators though. Which was very sad. They had to reschedule, which is okay. Things will get there. We had dinner with the Bermuda Dunes Bishop that night, it was great!!! They are such a cute family!! It was funny, during the dinner they acted like a family and then were apologizing for it. I was laughing! They have 7 kids, and the kids acted like kids, I was having so much fun being in a house with kids again :) I loved it!!
Friday - We went on exchanges. It was fun to be able to work in my area with a different sister. Made me realize that I know my area a lot better than I thought that I did. It was a comfort to realize that. I needed to know that because of transfers coming up. We were able to teach Daniela today, and committed her to being baptized on July 5th!! It is awesome!! The Spirit was so strong! We taught the Plan of Salvation, and it was amazing!! I love how we can have to Spirit there for us when we need Him!!
Saturday - Saturday was going to be a really busy day, but we ended up spending it in the house. At 5am I woke up with huge stomach pains, and in the course of 4 hours, I threw up 3 times. It was a long day. I ended up having a fever of 101.1*F. Luckily, I was able to sleep that night though :) So, in the end, it all worked out :) (Upon questioning Chaylee assured us that she is feeling much better.)
Sunday - It was church, and after the hard day on Saturday, we pushed though the 5 hours of it. It went well though. Felt the Spirit, and gained strength from it. It was pretty cool! We found out about transfers, and Sister Kelly and I are staying in the desert for another transfer!! I am so excited to work with her again!!
(When asked who she was teaching she gave us the following list:)
Things are going great!!
I love you all so much!! have a great week!!!
