Holy Smokes!
It's THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
HAPPY DAY OF THANKS! 

Man...I don't really know where to start ....but I do want to start with saying I am so thankful for Thanksgiving! What a beautiful holiday! A day of Gratitude! There is nothing more important in life than acknowledging what God has given us! :) 

Well, last week was a very "humbling" week for me. ...Story time.....so we had a fireside with all the YSA's in the ward on Sunday night and as we were finishing up and heading home. We may or may not have had a snow ball fight with all the members! So, we were all going at it and before I know it Sister Hunt was down. I ran over and she had gotten hit in the eye/head area. It really hurt her and so we went home and I tried to be the best nurse I could be...but she was so light headed and felt like she wanted to throw up. Well, long story short...she got a minor concussion and that was not her first concussion she has ever had so our mission nurse told her to rest. So......that meant she slept and I had about 50 million different companions last week. A member would go be with her while she slept and I tried to continue the work as much as I possibly could and members were my companion as well. Boy did I rely on the Atonement, because missionary work "by yourself" is pretty hard but, WE DID IT! All because of Christ. It was a humbling time and I learned a little more about the Atonement. Sister Hunt it all good now and her normal weird self! Thank goodness.... I missed her! :)

OKAY MIRACLE  OF THE WEEK!! 
So...I don't know if you remember me telling you about Sitan?? We taught her my first week on Purdue...She was the girl from China, who didn't even know about God and our lesson with her was absolutely incredible! She was so hungry for truth! So, we had a return appointment with her and she even had a baptismal date...but when the appointment came...she did not. We called and texted her and nothing. Well, we continued to every once and a while text her..and nothing.Well, I prayed every night for a month that we could find her again! AND GUESS WHO WE FOUND JUST YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!????? What a miracle...we were just talking to students on campus and we saw her and nearly grabbed her right then and there! What are the odds???  There are thousands of students on campus...but the Lord answered a prayer! God lives! YAY! We taught her and she said she lost her phone and got a new number...so we are back in business now! mmmmm...miracles! I LOVE THEM! 

Well, I just love life! It really doesn't get much better! I miss you all but, the "sacrifice" of being away is the least I could  try to do for the amount of blessings I am receiving! I love my mission! It has been a special miracle in and of itself! I love you all and am so thankful for you! You are the best! :) I love my Savior. I love Heavenly Father with all my heart. I have a testimony of what I am doing and that it is true! Because I have been given much,...I too must give! :)
Love you!!!!
Have a wonderful week and please pray that someone will be on campus over break that we can talk to!!! haha Love you! 
Love,
Sister Clegg :) The third.... :) 

P.S. CONGRATS ASH ON THE RING! Proud of you girl! You are the best! Another one bites the dust........ oh boy! haha Love you!
