| Reunited with Tesan for the Day! |
This week was one for the books once again! As always! :-)
The highlight of my week though was being able to go down the hill back to CHINO (the promised land) for a baptism of one of Sister Ysasaga's investigators on Saturday! And I got to see my sweet friend Tesan! It was like seeing my family again. The reunion was sweet :)
We started talking to each other as if we had seen each other just yesterday! It was wonderful to be at a baptism with her... seems like yesterday we were at HER baptism!
Teaching is going good for us here in Apple Valley!!
We were able to see C twice this week! She has been struggling for a while and has started to meet with us a couple times a month. Honestly, the problems she feels that she is having are common among all of us! We tend to forget the little things and the little things is what makes the difference in our spirits. If we feed our spirits as much as we feed our bodies... we would feel the difference!
We saw G and M this week! They are approaching their year mark of membership this year! We see them usually every Tuesday and every Friday! They are awesome. M has autism but he is so knowledgeable... everything in the gospel clicks for him. We are going through the Book of Mormon stories with them. It is hard to find time in their set schedule to read on their own, so we are helping them. They are awesome!! We all made our own Title of Liberties this week after Moroni's!
When we were at Shannon's this week - her friend P was there and he was just recently released from jail.... recently as in a few months ago... don't worry! :) He is so nice! Anyways, he found a Book of Mormon while he was in jail and started to read it! He has read the Book of Mormon and loved it!! He has been trying to find time to come to church with us to check it out but he lives really far away so the situation isn't ideal and he doesn't have a car. But we were able to teach him the Restoration this week. It wasn't the best way I've taught it because we only had a few minutes. But we feel what we did explain to him he understood... he got it and he said the closing prayer! It was awesome!!
We had a couple lessons with D this week. We are still teaching out of the For Strength of Youth Pamphlet! This has been amazing... her comprehension and reading skills have increased so much from going through this pamphlet! I am so happy! It is amazing to see the change in people. The big and small changes!
We had MLC on Thursday! I came down with a cold on Wednesday night at the end of our exchanges with the Ranchero sisters. I got a blessing Thursday morning because I felt like complete trash. It was a struggle to keep doing missionary work on Thursday and Friday but Saturday morning I was healed!! Literally no traces of my sickness! #MIRACLE!
Okay that is all I Have time for!! I love you all and I still absolutely love being a missionary!!! <3
Love Always,
Sister Holt
