Yes I got what I needed I bought a dress and some shirts. They are really cute!!!!!!
Oh my goodness mom this week has already been
amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Monday was
sister Clawsons birthday and that was a lot of fun the ward really took
care of her. One of the less actives that we are teaching bought her a
present but what they did not realize they had already given both of us
the best present the day before. They came to church!!!!! Granted we had
to bribe them a little bit but they were there. And they were early. Oh
I was so happy I have really grown to love their family. We are
reteaching the wife because she has been less active for quite a while.
But she is doing so well. She is now telling him that they should read
and she already has the clothes for next week all ready for church.
Their kids are not baptized and one just became a new investigator. On Monday
he told us that he wants to get baptized and go on a mission. And he
wanted his own set of scriptures to read. I am just so happy. I really
feel like they are a big reason why we are here in Rhyl and why I still
feel like I am needed here. They are just so great.
Yesterday we
had a lesson with our Investigator Rhys(Reese). And we were able to help
him realize that he has had the answer to his prayers and he is now
praying for a date to be baptized. I am so excited!!!!!! I am also
working on helping one of the YSA in the ward with some of the same
feelings that I have every so often. The feelings of your heart and
brain disagreeing with things and questioning your faith. I hope that I
will be able to help him. I constantly have to pray and ask if this
church is true. Which I can see as a good thing because I am constantly
seeking for the truth, but it can also be hard. But it helps me grow.
This morning we had a miracle call that one of the former investigators in this area was at church on Sunday
and has decided that he feels like it is time to start making changes
in his life and start taking the missionary lessons again. His wife is a
less active and has been waiting for this for a long time. Sister
Clawson and I both saw them at church but had no clue who they were and
were going to talk to them but they left before we could. I am just so
thankful for all of the many miracles and blessings that we have been
able to see!!!!!!!!!!!
So guess what!?!?!?!?!?!?!? We were at an investigators house last
week for lunch and she made sandwich's. One of the sandwich's was smoked
Salmon. But it looked like raw salmon. I was not a huge fan but I ate it
anyways to be polite. We also went to a members house for Tea and she
had some friends over who were not members. One of them is a former
investigator that may become an investigator again. He is 80 years old
and the only reason he stopped taking the lessons is because he likes
his money and did not like the law of tithing. He threw the elders out
because they brought it up. Well while were there I was talking to him
and then we were told to go into the dining room for tea and as I walked
passed him he tapped my bum. I was the most awkward thing ever. I had
no idea what to do so I just ignored it. It was so strange.
Wanna hear a funny story??? Sister Clawson has a blanket just like
stephanies. And she brought it on her mission just like Stephanie. It
reminds me of home I love it!!!! I love being here with Sister
Clawson!!!!! She is such a wonderful missionary. She is constantly
teaching me. This ward just takes care of everyone and I feel so blessed
to be here.
Yes I know Sister Clawson keeps reminding me that today is my 6 month mark.
Love you mostess hostess toastess!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
