October 22, 2012



This week has been an adventure! So last monday after we left the library our car broke down.... the battery was dead so we jumped it and went to Wal Mart then when we left wal mart it was dead again! luckily I have experience with cars that dont like working... RIP Donny.... So I said to my companion we need a new battery... but we got it started again and it was great but I knew we still needed a new battery cause this was not going to work. So we went to the church to play some volley ball for a few hours then we came out side... it was dead again but this time it wouldn't jump and I said yup we need a new battery. But the elders didnt have time to help us at all so we had to get the car towed! luckily I brought my AAA card with me or else we would have had to find another way cause we are so far away from lubbock the mission office didnt really know how to help us. Seeing the Felix our car on the tow truck brought back many Donny memories. We got a new battery and it was all good... or so we thought! the CD player was broken and we couldnt fix the fuse for like 3 days so I used my talents from my Featuring Beulah days and we made up songs to sing while we drove around! It was a hoot!
Then the week just got better! we had a lesson with Hope! we taught her the plan of salvation which was great! she is already reading Mosiah! and she understands everything she has read! When we asked if we could start the lesson with a prayer she was like yea I'll say it! It was an awesome prayer and after she was like ya that was my first time praying in public! it was awesome! then at the end of the lesson we asked her if she would commit to repent everyday and she was like I actually read about that so I have been doing it the past few days! she is just so awesome! Funny story about her lesson. I was putting the spirit world picture down to teach her about that and all the sudden... I was on the floor!!! I didn't know what had happened! one second im on the chair next im on the floor! aparently the folding chair decided to fold up and drop me on the floor! So me and my companion start laughing and Hope and Sis. Fields are wondering if im okay and Elder Fields is just staring probably thinking holy cow these are the girls teaching people? oh it was hilarious!
We have had trouble talking with chelsea this past week so we decided to ask her if she would teach us Tae Kwon Do. So we met her at the church and she started trying to teach us. Thank heaven for those times in Young Womens we took self defence classes! I was trying so hard to do it and she looked at me and was like Sister Rose I would point and laugh at you if you were in my class.... well thanks for that confidence booster chelsea!
We got a few refferals this week that seem pretty legit that we are excited about! Oh I just love the mission so much! this is seriously the greatest thing of my life and wouldn't trade it for anything! Its crazy how much I have learned about the gospel! Im almost done reading the Book Of Mormon and I started in the MTC and its crazy I actually understand whats going on! right now im in 3 Nephi when Christ is preaching to them its amazing! I totally wish I would have read and understood this earlier in my life im pretty sure my life would have been so much easier! not that it was hard to begin with but still! I love this gospel so much and I get like way to excited talking about the Book Of Mormon now im pretty sure I might scare people off because of it! This church is true and it will bring y'all so much happieness just read the book of mormon its so awesome! Even the war chapters im like holy cow I cant put this down! its crazy! love y'all so much! I love getting your letters and i'll try to write back!

So thats Felix getting towed, me being Rose on titanic and the best sign ever!
