Faith, Prayer, Fasting, and Bread :)





Monday: after we wrote home last monday we went shopping, washed the car, got gas, and made bread and oreo cookies :) It had been forever sense I have baked so I just had to! Our home share looked up Heidi's Bread recipe and the oreo recipe from our blog. So nice of her! I love sister Peel :) After we made bread we played Mormon-opoly (Mom Dad.....find it....It would be a great birthday/christmas gift) So fun! Then we went and had dinner with the Rex family (Bishop and his wife) She loves us and feeds us too much!

Tuesday: we took the bread to Hailey's mom.....a little recap....Hailey's mom had not given Hailey written permission to get baptized. Sister Mathews, Hailey, and I have been praing and fasting and praying and fasting. After that we walked around and talked to people. We went to this one house that a member referred us to. We knocked on the door and asked if he would like to hear a message about our Savior. He said I am christain I don't believe the mormon's are true. You worship Joseph Smith. Read Galations! He is a lost soul......In Galations it talks about how there is no other gospel. Which is true! We have the full gospel here on the earth! DUH!!!! Later after Dinner with the Hiner family we went and visited with Camille she is a Recent Convert that moved into our area. She is so sweet! She has a beautiful Baby boy! with the biggest Cheeks ever!!!

Wednesday: We went and had a meeting with every missionary in our stake. They fed us lunch and they had a few speakers. One speaker really hit home. I am here on a mission. It is time to forget about home! Ya'll will be there when I get back! Things may change, But I am here to serve the Lord! That night we taught our first Book of Mormon Class. It was so much fun! only three people showed up but it was still fun! That night Hailey brought us her permission paper signed by her mom!!!!! IT was amazing!!!!! The Lord really will answer prayers when it is the right time and place :)

Thursday: We walked....for over two hours.....we meet a lot of people and had a few appointments set up. I pray that more people will come out of the wood work.

Friday: We had a training on the Easter video...the Easter Video is so amazing! IT will be online on the 28th of this month! also......little  hint.....go look on youtube on April 5th.. :) IT will be amazing!!!!! After that we went and filled the font. it takes 3 hours to fill a font....just to let ya know haha so worth it! I had to play the piano for the baptism....never doing that again I got so nervous! Everyone said I did great but....I still wont do it again...Hailey is baptized!!!! :) It was so awesome! Her boyfriend baptized her it was so amazing! She is just awesome! Her mom came and we hope to start teaching the mother the lessons soon :)

Saturday: BLITS!!! Our Zone leaders said that we were going to do something amazing......we had all the missionaries in our zone (7 sets) come to San Jacinto and walk around talking to everyone! We assigned people areas and we got......(wait for it!!!)......14 Referals!!! 14 people that we can go back and talk to about the gospel!! It was AMAZING!!! Can't wait to help the other area's out!

Sunday: Hailey got confermed :) It was so amazing :) I didn't cry! I waited tell I got home haha :) We also had a killer fireside! President Mullen came down and talked to our stake about how they can help us find people to teach!! It was so powerful! :) I love President and Sister Mullen :) they are the best! The spirit was so strong! As a mission we repeat often the standard of truth by Joseph Smith and then sing We are as the Army of Helamen. ( Do it with your families!!!) It brings the spirit! at the end the songs sings "and we will be the Lord's missionaries to bring the world his truth!" AWESOME!!! You will cry :)

Monday: Today why this email is so late is because we went on a hike....it was long and hot and we didnt finish haha :) A sister wasnt feeling well so we chose to stay behind with her. It was so beautiful! We found Snow!!! and we made a snowman :)

So far so good this week :) No Sickness!!! and I pray for you all! the power of fasting and prayer and bread (so serves) really makes a difference in our lives if we allow it!

I love the Lord!
