Sister Owsley and Sister T |
This week has been madness... in a good way. We have been so
busy and I just love it so much! haha are we shocked, not really :) We have
been teaching so many people and have been getting so many lessons we are
having a hard time keeping up. On the other hand though Satan is working really
hard to stop people from progressing and really embracing the gospel but it
only means that this is true and its the right thing to do!.
Monday: nothing really too exciting happened we played games
down at the church building and what not.. we did get the car back for this
past week which was fantastic! We also met with the Fosters and challenged Gabe
to actually take the lessons and then decided on baptism he said he would and
we were so excited!
Tuesday consisted of a lot of changed plans which kind of
stressed me out but the Savior knows what he is doing and it all worked out. We
went over to Connie's house she is a non-member who we go over and do service
for and she is so sweet to us. We talked with her about God's love for us and
how much he really cares for her. She is a member of another church and
she was really opposed to us talking about religion but after we have gotten to
know her some more she has really opened up. Lisa unfortunately cancelled on us
:( boo! and The spencer's had to as well, and Madison wasn't home when we went
by darn it! Agency man what are you going to do? We did have dinner with the
Clarks though they are a part member family that we have been trying to get to
church the funniest thing was we had Deer stew and Sister Tiongson was a little
( a lot) weird out by it. It was really funny. We also got to meet with the
Stinson's again it has been a long time since we have been over there and it
was really awesome to go and talk with them.
Wednesday we had Zone Conference in Jerome so we were gone
most of the day. it was a long day to say the least. We were gone from 7 a.m.
to 5:30 p.m and we were inside all day! Uhgg but it was good we did get a lot
out of it and we able to take a lot of new things home and ways to improve our
work so it was worth it. The best part of the day though was we came home and
went right to a lesson. We went to a members house and they set up an
appointment to meet with one of there friends and her mom there names are
Jackie and Jennie (her mom) and they are awesome and she sat through the whole lesson Jackie had a lot of questions she really
has been searching for a religion for a while and she feel like God has been
leading her here. She is awesome and we committed them both to be baptized and
they BOTH SAID YES!!! it was amazing!
The Highlight of Thursday was we went over to see Courtney
Thursday evening and she Was really stressed out she had been having a lot of
panic attacks because of her tumor and she was really stressed out. I was
talking to her and telling her about my experience a few weeks ago and I
brought up a priesthood blessing and she had gotten one a while back and she
told us how she felt like she needed one everyday and so I told her that the
blessing wasn't just for that one thing that it is for her life and it rally
helped her. we did have the elders came over and give her a blessing of comfort
and it truly did help her! she is awesome and it has been so amazing to see her
turn to the Lord in such a critical time in her life and it has been a huge
blessing to me to see it!
Friday was Perfect outside we did some service for sister
Parsons and cleared out her whole front yard and It was awesome because we got
to wear pants!! haha we also went to lunch with the Watsons and They told us at
lunch that they were planning on coming to church this Sunday! and they did .
Sister T and I had to keep out mouths from dropping on the floor! Best Feeling
ever!
Saturday we had to finish some planning and lots of
paperwork stuff not really fun but hey thats the work part of it right?
Sunday was truly amazing we has 3 investigators at church
who had never been before! and We had 2 Less active families at church as
well one of them there son got the Aaronic priesthood it was amazing!
Truly the Lord has blessed us here and he has given us so
many of his children to bring the Gospel to and it has blessed my life even
more! Love you all and hope you Easter week is beautiful!
This is a video that our Mission President Sent out to us:
Watch and feel the Spirit of knowing that Christ is our Savior and that because
of him we can live again!
Love,
Sister Owsley
