This week was pretty busy and crazy. P-day was very uneventful. Tuesday we drove an hour to surprise study the sisters in Adna. It was a great experience. I learned so much from each one of the sisters who shared their studies. Its so true that when you listen to someone's testimony it kindles your faith even more. It helped me come to love companion study even more. One the way there and back I kept a tally record of how many times TiWi told Sister Brewster to check her speed ( she's a speed demon haha). Before the end of the night she 22 check your speeds. It was the funniest thing. I love Sister Brewster. I'm never board. She's the best.
I gave my 4th training on How to Begin Teaching in a district meeting Wednesday. Apparently I had missed something the first 3 times I'd give a training on the same topic. This time was really great though because I decided to approach it from acompletely different direction and I used the scriptures to present the entire 25 minute training. Because it was the scriptures it went well and we were all taught something.
Friday we drove to Lacey and caught a ride with some sisters the rest of the way to Tacoma to MLC which was amazing. It was so powerful. i was surprised the things we discussed there. It was a legitimate counsil. We talked about things from how we could encourage cleaner apartments to church attendance pre-baptism requirements. It was an amazingly spiritual even to watch how such young children like ourselves were able to discuss with the spirit so strongly present. We were then given some very powerful trainings on a few topics which will be relayed again at zone meeting this week to all missionaries. It was just so powerful. I can't wait for more MLCs! Afterwards we ate lunch and Sister Blatter made me take a picture with the AP's because she thought our height difference was hilarious and "precious" (see http://calledtoservewa-
Saturday was a fun day. We started the day with a great lesson with the wonderful Tyler who is quickly progressing towards baptism. He's really outstanding. So prepared. At 5 we had a sisters activity in which we chilled and watched "Meet the Mormons" and ate ice cream and drank red, white, and blue Jones sodas. Lots of fun.
Sunday was amazing. The entire ward had a fast to help us find a family with 4 baptismal age individuals who speak english, live with in our ward boundaries, and will be baptized on 7.25.15 Bishop Brulotte talked about this at the beginning of sacrament meeting and you could just feel the spirit so strong and the unity within all the members. During testimonies a member from Virginia shared her testimony about how she knew we would find this family because they are out there. She said she'd be calling to check in and see how it goes and she would be joining in praying for them to be found! It was amazing and continued into Relief Society when the sister that was teaching announced that if anyone had been holding onto friends waiting for the right missionaries that we'd arrived and they should hand them over. All the women gushed with excitement about Tyler's baptism and everyone is just on fire it was so amazing!
Well that's about it for now! I hope you all are doing well! Until next week read the Book of Mormon!
Love you all!
