    I am so sad I have such a short time to email!! SO GET READY TO RUMBBBBLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEE! WELCOME TO SISTER WHITES WEEK IN 10 MINUTES!! WOOOOOO *audience goes wild.

    Okay piece of news number one!

1.Companion....still a child of God

2. 4th of July was AWESOME! We met THE NEW MISSION PRESIDENT! President Olsen! They were shaking in their boots! This is their first time being a mission president and apparently all of their children just moved to be near them and WOOP they got their mission call! I miss the Mcdonough's but I am excited to get to know the Olsen's. Sister Beames, two members and I wore matching patriotic cat t-shirts while we watched fireworks (provided by the wonderful first Methodist memorial church) in the back of their truck. It was both a hilarious and eventful holiday.

3. I was a stinker and Heavenly Father told me to stop being a whiner and get back to work...I did! 

4.BUT THEN HE BLESSED ME!! An investigator (his family are all members), Johnny Green who has been going to church for 45 years accepted a BAPTISM DATE!! *insert clapping 

For the 18th of July! I feel so blessed to be a part of it!

5. Blessing #2 April this wonderful lady we have been teaching, we were having all this trouble with her deciding if she wanted to get married or move out. But we called the APs and they said she can get baptized even though her boyfriend (a truck driver who is never there, and if he is he sleeps in the truck) owns the house. YEAH!! She has been texting us all week telling us how excited she is to be baptized! She said in her prayer yesterday "Thank you Lord for sending the Sisters, they make me feel so loved" ITS BECAUSE WE LOVE HER! APRIL IS GETTING BAPTIZED!!! WOOO!!! *standing ovation-pan shot of audience shows audience members crying.

        Over all this week has been VERY trying, but my amazing Father in Heaven has truly been opening up the windows of Heaven and been DUMPING out blessings on me for sticking this trial out. Even though I am not always sure what I am supposed to be learning from my companion hating my guts (but then suddenly being my best friend at the drop of a hat) but I can feel my self growing spiritually. What started out as praying constantly out of desperation, has become a desire to constantly be talking with some one who I know with all of my heart thinks I am the most charming, adorable, faithful and pleasant to be around lil' thang you did ever see! (God thinks that about me in case you didnt catch that)  

      So go ask Him for some blessings, because He is WAITING just HOPING you will ask!
