Well Hello my fellow mates!!

What a week! :) I haven't read your emails this week yet so I don't know how you all are yet...but I trust you had a good week and that all is well!!!

So...new changes! I am in Mishawaka, Indiana. It is about 3 hours North of Carmel and it is a great little town! (Allie..remember when you guessed Michigan?...I have some of it in my area!)  Lots of Indian history here and some classic "Hoosiers"... I will explain what that means when I get home!  It is way different from Carmel. Carmel was the NICEST area in Indiana.  Mishawka... ummm lets just say there are a lot more humble people here? I love it and am excited to see what miracles Heavenly Father has in store!

My companion is Sister Evans...President surprised me and I am training again. She is from Salt Lake and is the sweetest thing! I am really excited about the time we get to spend together! Sister Hofheins stayed in Westfield..she promised me she would make sure Tim got baptized still.   (I have his phone number and address just in case!) haha!

I really like the Mishawaka ward...the Bishop was born in JEROME! :) Weird? Our ward mission leader served his mission in Jerome!  haha! Who would have thought! 

The work is going really well...we are pulling the "we are new missionaries" card and getting into all the homes so we can learn who everyone is as soon as possible! We have a lot of work to do...the chapel was very empty yesterday when we went to church. We have seen God's grace so much though this week! We found some awesome new investigators and Nora (who was investigating the church prior to us coming) committed to get baptized this SATURDAY! She is the sweetest thing! She is 18 years old and I love her already! Her parents are really struggling with her decision to get baptized...so will you all pray for her parents heart to be soften?

Overall this week has been a MAJOR rely on the Lord week! It was hard to leave my Westfield....and  now we have so much to learn that I just turned it all over to the Lord.  I have grown in testimony of the Atonement! I gained so much strength from the Savior that me, myself, and I could not have had. I am so thankful to have someone, my Savior who can give me strength. I need him and I am so thankful that He IS ALWAYS there! I love this work! I am motivated and inspired to go to work! I plan on being a instrument in the Lord's hand this week as much as possible! 

I love you all! You really do all mean the world to me! I can not thank you enough for your prayers and the things you do for me!

Love you so much!  I am ALWAYS praying for you!

Love,

Sister Clegg the 3rd
