I wanted to start off by talking about this lady named Star Galvin. She isn't a member, but has had a lot of missionaries over in the past. She lives on this farm and has these 2 beautiful horses!! We get to do service over there once a week, and i absolutely love it!!! She used to live in Texas but moved here to be closer to her dad, and she owns an online business selling cowgirl nicknacks and stuff. She makes all of her things and then sales them. She does all her business through Facebook and it's pretty cool! When we go over to her house for service we are so excited because we get to do manual labor!! Cleaning out the stalls, chopping down trees, and hauling manure everywhere. I love it! I chop all sorts of trees down with an ax and it's a ball!!! Then she takes us out to eat and we talk a lot about the gospel! It's a win win situation!!
Connie's Baptismal date is June 15th, but we have to move it back to June 29th because the Robbins will be out of town and they really want to go to it! So we'll wait! Whats cool is she will be getting confirmed on Syd's Birthday!!
I don't know if I've talked to you about Kayla, but i will talk about her anyway! She has these two darling daughters, Micah and Lena. They are just full of energy all the time! They are always running around the yard and it's so funny! But Kayla is so awesome and loves us coming over! We are meeting with her again today and i'm super stoked!!
I've been out for almost 2 whole transfers now and it seems like it's only been a week!! Ah man, it hasn't been that long, but by how my testimony has grown I feel like I've been out for much longer. I always go back to the Book of Mormon. The Keystone to our Religion, and how much that book has influenced my life. It truly testifies to me every time I read it. The two things that I have grown a love for this past 3 months is reading the Book of Mormon and Prayer. Between the two of those i have gained my trust in the Lord!! I honestly know that Heavenly Father listens and answers our prayers! I love our Heavenly Father so much!! I feel like Heavenly Father is constantly giving me a bear hug and picking me up when I am down, or tired and think i can't go much further. I know he grabs my legs and puts one foot in front of the other and pushes me right along. I love this gospel of Jesus Christ. Without him we are nothing. Without the Atonement me will not make it back to heaven. The ultimate sacrifice from a perfect being was performed in order for us imperfect souls to become perfect and return to our Heavenly Father! Isn't that just amazing!?
I hope everyone has a great week!!
