May 8th, 2017


Hello Everyone!,


I hope you all had an amazing week! We had so much that went on this past week. We had the opportunity to do service for the Elderly. They were all playing bingo and I realized that was Sister Jones and I in 50 years! haha we had a good time. They were so friendly.. except when I got told I look like I am 15!? haha.


We are moving to Lindsay this Friday! We are so excited! We are going to have some chickens and a dog! Well, okay they are the members but still! They told us we get farm fresh eggs and a dog named, Spike.


I finally got a nickname this week from Grandma! She is an older women who loves all the missionaries. She gives them all nicknames and she said I have been her hardest one yet to find a name for. I have been here for 7 weeks! She finally found it is " JOY!"


That made me so happy, she said I always have a smile on my face and I brighten her day. Sister Jones is "GRACE" we go to together really well you could say!
On cinco de Mayo we had Chinese food. It was really good but kind of a let down. We wanted some Mexican! However, we went to the Ra-matte (flee market) afterwards and had fun talking to people there.


We have two baptisms coming up this weekend! One for Della, who hit rock bottom in her life and the one we found at the park who had been talking to her Dad about being baptized just five minutes before we showed up. The other one is, Bianca, she is just so prepared! She is spanish and just accepts everything we share with her so well. She even said the closing prayer in church yesterday.They both did awesome with their interviews and are set for the 13th!
Our Recent Convert Travis, wanted to make a reading plan for both the BOM and the Bible. We made a two year plan with him and he is so excited!


WAHOO!
We also had exchanges with the Porterville Sisters, Sister Jeffrey and I had so much fun! Love the work field, love the work!

Alma 26:3-4
3 Behold, I answer for you; for our brethren, the Lamanites, were in darkness, yea, even in the darkest abyss, but behold, how many of them are brought to behold the marvelous light of God! And this is the blessing which hath been bestowed upon us, that we have been made instruments in the hands of God to bring about this great work. 4 Behold, thousands of them do rejoice, and have been brought into the fold of God

How great is our calling! Love you all :)
