Howdy y'all! so compared to last week this week was the best week of my whole life! Well maybe not I hear the week I was born was pretty cool but other than that this is totally it!
First let me tell you just the best story in the world. So as y'all may know at Sonic is was the summer of shakes! And there were rumors going around that the 18th was the last day so me and my companions were waiting till that day to go and try the peanutbutter bacon shake (sidebar its delicious) Anyway so this particular night we decided to go to the drive thru for some reason dont really know. So we all order our shakes and we get up to pay and the lady said " well ladies today is your lucky day someone decided to pay for you" SAY WHAT! they told us it was the guy in the orange shirt so we were waiting for them to hurry and hand us our shakes to go over and say thanks you. But then he drove away! we have no idea who it was! thinking back we should have paid for the people behind us! But it was just so awesome, we may have all started crying... it had been a rough day and it was just nice to get free ice cream.
So as you may have been able to tell last week was not a fun week for me, I was going through a really hard time so I asked for a priesthood blessing from one of the elders. I am so gratefull for the priesthood many times in the blessing I knew that it was directly from God and he was helping me. Since then I have had so much energy for the work. ITs completely different from last week! I have also been praying to have the spirit lead me more in the work and I have seen that happen so much this week! I'll just tell y'all one example. So we were knocking and we get to this house and I just start talking about how the gospel can bring familes closer together thru Christ. and I mean a lot of talking and im sitting there in my head like umm sister Rose I think they get the point you can shut up now... anyway we made a return appointment and went back. When we got there it was a mom and her 4 daughters and she said that she has been praying and telling God she is ready for her family to be more united in his gospel but doesn't know where to start then we came to her door! The family is so awesome they came to church and loved it! The little girls are so cute the youngest one Sydney (which BTW has blond curly hair so basically my best friend) anyway she loves to sing and asked if we would watch her concert. She sang us some wonderful songs and I started crying I was so happy... it was awkward and embarassing... but it happened...
anywho this week really was just fantastic! I loved every second of it! We also found 2 other families that seem solid that we are going to start working with.
y'all are awesome! Love ya so much!
