Hello to my most wonderful family 🙂

How are you all?? It sounds like you are all very busy and enjoying the rainy yucky weather.. Speaking of which… I uh got sunburned today in the sunshine! I wish I could send some of this sun to you in a mason jar or something.

Ok all these babies!!!!!!!!!!! MAN!!!!!! I wish I could there for the babies. That is one thing that gets me.. I am kinda hungry… Yeah for babies!!!!!!!!

What are some things that you want me to tell you about when we Skype?? I want to have an outline for our sype sesh….

Well…. This week was ummmmm….. Great? Hahaha this week was a big challenge. Lets just say I learned a lot and was tested quite a lot.

I was actually sick all this week with a head cold or something. It was pretty bad. Also all of the people we are teaching that were progressing are kinda falling through. And our Branch is having some struggles. There is some gossip going around and our BP resigned basically.. WELP! The lord will provide a way. That has been the motto of my life for the past little while and will continue to be for my whole life.

Anyway we found out that Sister K. is leaving at the end of this transfer for true. And so we are trying to cram in 7 weeks of training in one week!!!! WOW!!!

This week we taught somone while they were in the shower….. And also someone hit a possum and were hanging on to it by the tail and hanging it out the window of their car…. Hahaha only in this place. 🙂

Something wonderful: The highlight of my week was yesterday. In the morning we went early and were helping our inv. to get on buses and stuff and T. refused to go to church and his g-ma said if he went to church he’d be kicked out of the house… Pretty much Satan is working real hard. But it was a rough morning and I was sick and the Branch was having a hard sunday. Anyway needless to say I was feeling a little heavy in my heart. But I was trying to look for the good in what was happening. Anyway I asked my District Leader to give me a blessing and the moment the elders put their hands on my head I was flooded with peace and it was such a special blessing. I am actually feeling loads better now. I have such a great testimony of the priesthood. I am so grateful to be surrounded by righeous males holding it.

Anyway this week I read an article called the 40 day fast and it was amazing. It reminded me about what I have been taught about aligning our wills with Gods and changing ourselves for the better. I know I have come a long way from who I used to be and I know I have much further to go. But I am grateful for the experiences and blessings I have had all throughout my life. Thanks everyone for your love and support I can feel it. Somedays it is hard to keep going but there are so many great things in life.

I love the gospel and I am commited to always keep learning and moving forward.

Sorry this compute is being silly so I won’t be able to write each individual but just know that I love you all so much and I hope you have a great week 🙂

Love always, Sister Emily
