Hello!

Well hello there!! 10 months has come and gone... SOO crazy! BUT here are the happenings from the week!
 
1. We got lost BUT ended up at the NASA Jet propulsion lavatory!! Ummm did that just happen? I wanted to take a picture but there were guards everywhere.
2. We had a GREAT lesson on the Holy Ghost in our new member/who ever lesson on Tuesday. It is always fun for me to come up with analogies for everything while people are talking. I got a few on Tuesday.
3. The lesson carried over to our lesson with a less active, Sharon. She is amazing! She is on day 29 of not smoking!! She wants one bad but she is doing great! We talked about the Holy Ghost and how much we all need it. She shared that she remembers even when she was younger in a hard home situation feeling the spirit comfort her. The spirit is real and I LOVE being able to teach with it! Mainly because there is no other way :]
4. With another less active we got to talk about the temple. He met with bishop on Sunday and got a limited use recommend. SO excited for him!! A few of our recent converts and recently active members are making a trip to go do baptisms at the temple. I'm excited for them to feel our Savior's love there!
5. When we met with Alice this week we talked about the importance of the Book of Mormon and her reading it. She used to be doing really well but it has died down a bit. She said she will read while she is helping her sister with her hip recovery... she has been out of town helping her and comes back today, we are planning on seeing her tonight.
6. We finally got a FULL lesson in with Beverly. She is a less active lady who talks a LOT. BUT this past week we were able to see her and have a lesson on all 10 Commandments. She even had said that she had been praying that we would come. (LOVE those experiences!)
7. We have 2 new investigators this week! Lydia and Jacob. Lydia lost her mom recently and is having a REALLY hard time coping with it. She got a hold of missionaries because her son Jacob has met with missionaries before apparently. They came to church yesterday and Annabella came too, her 8 year old daughter. They all really seemed to enjoy church. Especially when the kids got to meet other kids their age. We took them on a tour of the chapel and have another lesson on Tuesday!
8. A got a flu shot! Nothing too exciting but hopefully I wont get sick now :]
9. At the Ronald McDonald house we volunteer at the lady we mainly work with has been asking a lot of questions lately but this past week she came up to me and was like, "I need your advice..." She went on to tell me about a CRAZY thing going on with a friend and her. I hope I was able to help her and put a few plugs in about praying about it and such. We will find out what happened this week.
10. Favorite scripture this week... Doctrine and Covenants 98:1 "Verily I say unto you my friends, fear not, let your hearts be comforted; yea, rejoice evermore, and in everything give thanks;" I KNOW that as we trust, Heavenly Father will send his comforter... He will. This week I had some worries so I decided to fast and pray about it. I don't think I have ever felt my Heavently Father and Savior's love so quick. I know they were there to give me the strength and comfort. I know they are still here giving it to me too. I owe everything to them and am FOREVER thankful for my live and the experiences I am having.
 
Love you all!!
