This week was AMAZING!!!! On Friday we got to do another church tour with our other investigator, Marsha! :) She even came in a skirt! She decided to do that on her own, because we want this to be an amazing experience, we just say wear what you are comfortable in but that is presentable, you know. :P Anyways, she came even though she wasn't feeling the best, because we couldn't reschedule so she came. A member came with us, Sister Adams, the tour went great! We sang her 'Joseph's first prayer' for her at the end, because she wanted to see it and I caught her wiping away a tear. :) It was beautiful! Then we asked if she'd been praying about a specific date to be baptized and she said she hasn't but she feels good about it,(being baptized) so I'm SOOO excited to commit her to a baptismal date. :)

So yesterday, Sunday was amazing! On reason it was awesome, was because Janelle, one of our
investigators came to church, again, now two weeks in a row!! :) She's amazing!

The lessons on Sunday were amazing! They were all about the family and teaching the Saviors way. :) <3 And I just wanted to take some time to thank my amazing Mother and Father! :) <3 Thank you for teaching the Saviors way: calmly, listening, talking, helping, loving those you teach (:P of course you would love your kids :)) .  It truly did make a difference. Continue to teach repentance, and how it is not a bad thing, its' a beautiful, wonderful gift.  So don't give up on us Mom and Dad. :) I haven't and will never give up on you to become even more Christlike. :) Thanks for being there for/with me and teaching me the things that I am now teaching others. Thanks for listening to me and understanding me, and hearing and connecting with me as I am growing older. :)

Also one thing that I learned yesterday is the one way that can really help strengthen the family, is strengthen your marriage.  And that it's very important to do that because Satan is working very hard to attack and tear apart the family as much as he can.

Everyone, please take time to pray and thank your Heavenly Father for the families which you have.  Step back and really look at how they have helped you in your life and helped you become who you are today. :) Also take time to go and thank them personally, it will be amazing and it will help your family grow together, even closer.

I love you all and I thank you for everything that you do for me, You're all the best! I love and appreciate all of you and the difference you have made in my life! <3 Never forget that you all helped me to be where I am and who I am today. <3

Love,
