First off, the mission office had our apartment address wrong. They had our complex office as our address. So the apartment office got all of your letters instead of me and sent them back to you. They said there were quite a few, so.....I'm sorry! When you get them back, know how much I wanted your letter. We were getting kind of worried about not having gotten mail in three weeks!! All is good now though, if you send it through the mission office address it will come to the right place... for the next couple weeks, then mail will get interesting since I'm extending to tour the mission and train in different areas. I'll keep you posted on how that's going to work.
We taught our investigator B. the Plan of Salvation and she loved it! She came to church on Sunday as well. She has a date of May 4th, but she's not sure about it yet. She can still make it! We're solidifying the date tomorrow. She's praying about it and reading from the Book of Mormon. My favorite moment from church was when the teacher in gospel essentials class asked B. kind of a tough question. The lesson was on agency and she basically taught him the Plan of Salvation in 15 seconds. Talk about simplify and intensify! We can learn so much from the people we're teaching all the time. We are constantly learning WITH them.
We're focusing on members this week. Members are key, and the demographics of our area make member work especially important. We have pretty solid relationships with some of them now; quite a few of them are building solid foundations with their friends, and we have a ward activity this weekend that several ward members are inviting friends and family to. This ward is amazing! The work moves at an amazing pace and so does time. It's all we can do to keep up with it. Heavenly Father doesn't truly need us to accomplish his work. He could accomplish it in other ways, but we have the opportunity and blessing to participate in this amazing work!
Sister P. and my GPS have a serious love-hate relationship. When she loves it she calls it Tompkins, which is what I call it. Tom Tom = Tompkins, yes? But when she is not happy with it, she calls it Doris, as in the evil hat from “Meet the Robinsons”!
It’s been hot one day and cold the next here. Very windy, too....we've been pulling Marilyn Monroes all week! No snow though. Lot's of rain. The only thing I don't like about the weather warming up is that the mosquitoes are going to be out soon!!
My plan for preparation day is basically whooping the Elders at volleyball. We're having zone fun day and I made sure volleyball was happening! :) I hope I haven't lost my touch! :)
