Well I'm just loving the work here!

Sister Bradley and I taught at a zone conference this past week- it went waaaaaaay better than the last time! It went super well. We were really happy about and grateful for it. 
Then afterwards, I went on an awesome exchange down to Indiana! We taught institute, and that was an adventure, but it went well. Grateful for the guidance of the spirit on-the-spot like that :) 

Exchanges are the best. I had three of them this week- two were in Indiana. Great stuff. We have awesome sisters!!!

Sister Bradley and I had an FHE at the house of a member and invited some other members and one of our recent converts, Maria. It was awesome! It was a great chance for them to all get to know each other better and grow in the gospel. I am always so grateful for the incredible members we have :) 

As a missionary, I feel like my humor has gotten so much worse... We always just laugh at the dumbest things- it's not even that funny, but we almost lose it every time. 
One particularly unfortunate example was during the sacrament this week. I accidentally dropped the water cup and it just bounced down onto the seat next to me. I don't even know why it was so funny, but sister Bradley and I almost lost it... It wasn't even that funny!!! But it was absolutely hilarious....

On a more spiritual note, three of the recent converts in our branch are going to the temple on Friday for the first time, yay!! And were going too! They got their recommends this past week and it was so wonderful and awesome. It's going to be so great going with them!

My new favorite sentence in PMG is on page 62 where it says that "through our faith in Jesus Christ, he can heal us, both physically and spiritually." How sweet is that?!
Faith is a real power. And when we have that faith in Jesus Christ, miracles can and do happen.
Jesus Christ isn't just some guy that lived in Jerusalem thousands of years ago.
He is a real and living person- our savior- and he plays an active role in our lives every single day if we let him help us. 
It's so awesome. 

Sorry I'm not super spiritual right now. Ha I'm just so happy, and I just got back from having a blast downtown :) so life is good. I love the mission so much. I'm so grateful for the guidance of the spirit. I'm so grateful that the lords hand is in this work. I see it every single day, and I love being a part of it!
Love you all :)
