This week went really well! We had some struggles but, all-in-all, it went really really well. We had some really good lessons this week with the DeBoards and the Gross family. And the Gross' came to church on Sunday! Granted, they were late and they left during Sunday School, but they came! We're finally clearing that hurdle!
We had an amazing lesson with Heather this week! We had the lesson at one of our returning less active's house and it went so well! They were able to relate to each other on so many levels that we'd never anticipated! It was incredible!
Tsahai is making so much progress. We all fasted for her this Sunday that she'll have a miracle happen that will help her quit smoking. I've been praying so hard for her. But she seems a lot happier and our lessons with her have been giving her the added boost to keep trying instead of giving up. We discovered that she absolutely loves the Mormon Messages, so we've been looking into a lot of those for her. I've also discovered a love for Mormon Messages as well. They are so good! It's so nice that they're so short, but they seem to be just what you need when you watch them! They're awesome!
We met with Kaitlin this week and watched Meet the Mormons with her! She absolutely loved it and wants to watch it with her husband this week, so we're super excited to meet him! I love Meet the Mormons. It's such a good movie! It was funny watching it this week because the Navy football one made me reminisce about all of the football games that we went to as a family. Good times, good times :)
We had a pretty good lesson with Ana Rivera this week. Sister MacKillop was able to teach her in Spanish and it was so cool to hear the lesson in Spanish! I could follow most of the conversation, so I'm that much closer to speaking it! In a month, she'll be able to change her work schedule, so she'll be able to come as well! We also did service for Chip and he was a lot more friendly with us! He still declined joining in on our discussions, but he's warming up. He made us some pretty fantastic biscuits and gravy for breakfast after we weeded his yard. It was so good! My taste buds were singing!! The awkward moment was when he said that I looked just like his wife... I just laughed and said that it's so funny that I have a twin.
Last night, we were able to have a really good lesson with the Roses and we got to know them better and taught them the Restoration, so we'll hopefully be able to clear up any questions that they may have and get them ready to go to the temple! They had such a nice home and they gave us a ride back to our bikes in a really really nice Mercedes. Like, super nice.
I love the work here! It's so nice (despite the hot weather) and I truly love being able to spend this time serving my Father in Heaven. Thanks for all your support!
Love,
Steph
Sister MacKillop had some pretty epic crashes this week... They had to be documented. None of these were staged and, please, don't do this at home :)
