Week 74

Lani and New Comp Sister Peterson

Lani, sister? and Sister Peterson at Stake Conference?

Hello Everyone!

 

Transfers happened and we were not expecting any change! Ha! Sister Nelson and I were lying low :) BUT Heavenly Father had a different plan. Sister Nelson got called to go out to Souix City and I am now with Sister Peterson from Colorado :) She is a visa waiter going to Brazil! She has been here for 11 months so far and if she doesn't get her visa this transfer, she will serve in Nebraska for the rest of her mission! :) She is so great! She has been so patient with me despite my running around like a chicken with my head cut off because Sister Nelson did so much. I miss sister Nelson...but I am so excited for her. She is an incredible missionary and a great friend me. isn't that the best? when Heavenly Father give you a life long friend?  I love her and am so grateful we got to laugh together, cry together, learn and grow together! bah! She is so great and is going to continue to do incredible things in this mission for the Lord.

 

This week has been so great! We began the week with getting to teach one of our investigators named Amber! She is so great and she is set for baptism! Oct. 25th! :) She is afraid to read and pray about the Book of Mormon, but as we continued to talk, the spirit was present and she felt it! I am so grateful that the Spirit is the teacher, not us. :) Hopefully we will teach she and her less active boyfriend James at the Pulleys this week!

 

Heather Ainsworth has been coming to church and has been progressing! She is a less active in the ward. The sisters are taking such great care of her and she is changing. The atonement is real! and works.

 

We had stake conference yesterday and it was incredible! Elder Godoy from the seventy came because our stake presidency was changed. Where do I begin? It was incredible! The last testimony the Stake president gave was about the divinity of the Book of Mormon. How has everyone's Book of Mormon reading been going? I had the thought that Brother Bartlett (the old stake president) is the man he is today because he reads the Book of Mormon everyday! This Book of Mormon is so true. It is changing my heart and I desperately want to help other to have a change of heart as well! I was reading in Alma 5 today! Alma loves these people so much! He wants them to repent and come unto Christ! I invite all of you to read Alma 5. The Gospel does change our hearts.

 

I love you all so much. This is the greatest work we can every be involved in! I know the Savior lives. He is the reason for everything! Having faith is Jesus Christ will help us overcome every hard thing.

 

I love the gospel of Jesus Christ! It is true. If you haven't been reading the Book of Mormon, Alma 5 is a great chapter to read. Repentance is real!

 

Have an incredible week!

Love,

Sister Call
