Nope, Still Mondays

Just for the past couple of weeks we've been emailing on Tuesdays, the library was closed because of no power yesterday, and last week was Memorial Day. So feel free to keep checking on Mondays!
That's awesome, and weird, that so many people graduated! It seems like they still have a year left! That is awesome to know that they are doing so well, especially Nate and Roie...:) haha. It's awesome to see Jackie stepping up like that! She has definitely grown out of her shy stage. Let me know when they all get their calls! :) That is going to be awesome!
I love the Rix's story, it couldn't be any more true. Fear is the opposite of faith, so if you live by faith, you shouldn't be worried when the moon is angry! :) I just barely read this scripture also, "perfect love casteth out all fear" so we have two tools to use against it, Faith and Love! And of course both are commandments of the Lord, to Love everyone and God, and to have faith in Jesus Christ! No problem right? :) I do need to work on both of those. Tell them they are awesome!
I am running and doing my push ups and sit ups, and I hit a wall with those, I can't do more than 30 push ups! It's bugging me... I hope that when I'm careful not to eat too much and continue to exercise, I will have that muscle! Instead of coming home extra skinny!....;)
About the Howells, nope... But it's alright. I'm sure something will come, sometime......in the future......when I get home.....haha naw, if I do, cool, if I don't I know people still care about me! But I have been having strange dreams lately, I thought at first, maybe they are visions! But after last night's dream, about me being in the army, I thought, naaah. Maybe one day.
Well this week has been a little ruff, we are having trials and it doesn't seem like the area is getting anywhere. But we do have an awesome investigator, he is fifteen and is super excited about learning the gospel. He has a rough background and he doesn't know the gospel too well, even the Bible! He lived with his grandpa for a while, until he died, he then stayed with someone else, who wasn't in the right frame of mind, so they moved him to live with his uncle. He learned much from his uncle, but not much about the gospel. But then his parents wanted him back, and now he lives here. His parents aren't church goers, and they don't seem too great, the way he describes them, but his testimony is growing fast and strong and he is progressing fast. It's interesting because he seems like a role play investigator, but he isn't acting. He is definitely a golden investigator. He has a baptism set for the end of June, and I'm most likely being transferred out in the middle of June! It's horrible, but I know that he will stay strong. He had to give up some friends who were a bad influence, and he is reading the B of M, even in the bus, where kids have made fun of him. He is awesome, and I am super impressed by him!
Other than that, I just need to keep working harder, and the Lord will direct my path!





Love y'all and keep being blessed! :)





PS It is now hurricane season! Good thing some elder left a rain jacket that fits me!! :)
