Sister Tuckett at Temple Square

Hey there!!

So we had lots of crazy awesome experiences this past week!

One day we had just come back from meeting with the Bishop from East Valley (Bishop B). We were just driving along and singing our little hearts out when Sister Pritchard said "we need to talk to her." Me, "WHO?" I didn't have any idea who she was talking about. There was this lady that was walking on the side of the road. We parked to catch her but she turned the corner on the other side of the street. So we got back in the car and seriously drove past her 5 times trying to find a place to park! lol This lady gave us a couple of faces, like what are these crazy girls doing... hehe. We finally we found a spot and tracked her down! We talked to her for a little bit and invited her to learn more. She said that she wasn't interested, we gave her our number and left. Even though she didn't accept our invitation we knew that we needed to talk to her, She has our number so hopefully sometime down the road she will have a change of heart!

We had another lesson with the C. family! We invited them to be baptized!! They have a baptismal date for April 11! We are so happy and excited for them!! The kiddos are 12, 10 and 8! They are looking forward to that special experience! BJ (12) he said that he already feels like he is baptized.. how cute is that! Heavenly Father is preparing his children!

We also went tracting in this little trailer park and no one seemed to be interested, they all KNEW about Mormons! Then we met this cute older lady! She was sweet and happy and invited us to sit with her. After a couple of minutes she said "Now let's talk about your religion." Sister P. and I looked at each other like - uh oh! She began talking about how the church is a lie and lots of false things... We just sat there taking it. She said that we were brain washed and that our families are cursed and are going to hell as well as us. It was sad and heartbreaking to see how hard Satan is working on our brothers and sisters. The most hurtful thing was that she said that we have NO way to receive revelation from God. We both thought about it afterwards, expressing how it strengthened our testimony not destroying it.

One of our dinner appointments fell through at the last minute so we ended up calling our WML (Ward Mission Leader) from East Valley. They lovingly invited us to join them for dinner and they took us out for Chinese food! It was so good! But the conversation was the best! We talked about how much Heavenly Father loves us and knows each of us! And much more, but it was nice talking about why we are here on earth and that we are willing to sacrifice our time and talents to serve each other. To help others remember the decision they made before they came to earth!

What a great week! I love this beautiful valley!!! Emmett is the best!

Love you ALL!!

Sister Tuckett LOVES her Emmett, Idaho!

These were taken last week on their p-day (preparation day)

The district went for a hike.
