Dear Family & Friends,
Wow! This week has been the
best/craziest week of my mission! We have been blessed to teach more
lessons than I have ever before this last week. Saturday Shanin
Holland was baptized and the spirit was super strong. She brought her mom
and friend Amanda who are now taking the lessons and have baptismal dates
in September. What is interesting is to see how much more
confident Shanin is now. When we first started meeting she
told us she would never "get up in front of everybody and
talk about her testimony." After she was baptized she bore her
testimony of what she knew to be true and how she came to know it.

After
receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost on Sunday she helped us teach her mom
and friends and she taught principles and bore testimony with out any
hesitation. She is really coming to love young women’s and knows that
they love and care for her. It was a great Saturday and Sunday!
Also all four of us missionaries here were asked to speak at church on Sunday.
My topic was D&C section 4. This last Sunday were 23 either investigators or inactive members
we have been working with here in the Ward who attended church on Sunday.
The classes were full, and it was great to see so many of our brothers and
sisters attend and are able to feel the Spirit with us. In addition
to speaking we sang the missionary medley as a musical
number. Then after church we all ran to a senior/disabled
living center and did a musical devotional there. Busy, busy,
busy, I love it!
We have been so blessed to be able to
serve here and have so many miracles occur. We are planning on the
baptism of Kaelon Moore on the 25th with the Arnett family who
the sisters are teaching. In our area the investigators we are
currently teaching are Kaelon Moore (baptism this month) Lexi
Billingham, John Kuhr, Nick Larsen, Daecha and Dennis Moore, Emilie Moore,
Gary Cooper, Michelle Stuber (Shanins Mom), Amanda Martin (Shanins
Friend), and Michael Stephensen (Shanins Cousin). They all have dates
for September that they are working for, and the majority is looking very
solid for being baptized next month.
I love you all and thank you for your
prayers, encouragement, and love. Have a fun, safe week.
Love,
