We got to go to the temple on tuesday for Zone Conference! I was able to do a family name that katie did the baptism for, my mom did the initiatory and I did the endowment! The work of salvation is definitely a team effort all around, that is why we have companions, why we have families, why we have wards, and why we need to rely on the Lord as our team captain. =)
After the Temple we had a meeting. I was asked to sing at the meeting with Sister Warren! It reminded me of high school choir when we would sing together! =)
We had 36 lessons this week!!!!! It's a Colony record! We were able to teach 19 RCLAs (recent convert or less active lessons) and a ton of lessons to investigators with a member present! Of course it isn't about the numbers, its about the people, but the numbers show how many people we have the great priviledge of working with and loving. =) The Lord definitely has lead us to where we need to be, because we actually had a lot of lessons fall through, but the Lord showed us someone else who needed us more.
On Friday we were able to take our friend Katie on a mini mission! She came out with us all afternoon and evening! She is so cute! She is going to make a wonderful missionary! I remember the times that I went out with the Sister missionaries in Cougar Mountain ward!
We are moving to live with Sister Jones today! She gave us a tour of her house the other day. She is so welcoming to us! She even got me a pink key chain to hold the key to her house =) She has put a lot of work into preparing our room and bathroom for us, she also bought me a pack of allergy medicine because she has cats.
Jaderious is not sure of his date anymore, we are praying hard that he will be able to overcome the influence of the adversary that is telling him not to be baptized.
Joshua recovered fully from his surgery super fast! He is doing great! hopefull he will recieve the priesthood soon and a calling.
We are still working with Helen (the referral from dallas 6) and she now has a baptism date for June 27th!
This ward is so amazing! The bishop invited us over for a BBQ today with his family and another family in the ward for memorial day! We were also invited over to another member's BBQ that we will go to an hour after the bishop's! I never want to leave this ward!
The rain has not stopped! aparently by this time, it is usually in the 90s, but the rain is keeping in us the 70s and 80s! =) Heavenly Father is very merciful to me! I have no problem with all of this rain at all it helps me feel at home. I am sure the people who live on the usuallly pretty dry lake are not loving it as their yards are all flooded! looking down towards the lake we can see the tops of the pavillons that cover picnic tables, all we can see are the roofs poking out! It is so strange, one hour will be sunny and clear and the next will be storming with thunder and lightning!
