Hello!
 
So it seems like this past week just flew by!

So we began the week with Billie! She is investigating the church. She had decided to get baptized March 4 but she said that she wants to push her date back. We had a feeling that that would happen due to one of our previous conversations. She is having a hard time believing that Heavenly Father loves her because of her past. She wants to be happy but doesn't seem to know how to apply the Atonement. So we taught her more about baptism and how the Atonement can help her forgive and forget what has happened.

Again we went back and did service and cleaned stalls for a lady in South Slope Relief Society.  :-)   It was fun! We had to run and corner one of the goats so that we could put a collar on him. He wasn't too happy about that!  The poor thing hurt his ankle during the chase!

We have been getting to know the families in both wards and a lot of the young women are also wanting to serve missions so we have invited them to go with us to lessons and such! They can experience some of what goes on in the work! It is great to see these young girls and their testimony of our Savior and how they want to share it with others!

On Thursday we went on Exchanges with the Sister Training Leaders! It was so good! I went to New Plymouth which is about 20 minutes west of Emmett! The exchange was short due to a busy week but I learned so much in 9 hours!! I was with Sister Clegg.  She is from Provo Utah! She has only 6 weeks left and she reminds me of the Princess from Brave!! What I learned this week was not only from my personal study and prayer but from her - is to love ourselves and not to be so hard on ourselves. The mission can be hard and Satan has his own work too. We taught a lot of people and the town has only 1,000 people in it a lot less them Emmett! So FUN!!!

Friday we had district meeting and we talked about asking inspired questions to help our investigators teach themselves, to answer their own questions!  We also talked about how important it is to know what we teach. We are to become converted before we can help others in their own conversion.

After DM (district meeting) we did service! We went to another Sister's area and we picked up branches and pecans! Then we went to Lee C.'s house and washed her dishes and cleaned the house. She is having back surgery in the next week, so she wants to have things in order for a little bit.

This has been such a good week! My Faith has grown, my desire to serve has increased and my love for others!!

Learning to love change has become apart of me!

LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Called to Serve!

She said she thinks they will all be getting I-pads on Temple Square...  We will have to pay $400-450 for it and then it is hers to bring home.
