Hello My family! 

How are you all? You all sound like Basketball and the seasonal activities are keeping you busy! That is so great! I am so happy for Torrey and Andy that they got baptized this last weekend! They made the best covenant in the world! :) I am so proud of them! Baptism means so much more to me now - what a special day! :)

Uncle Alan- Happy Birthday tomorrow! I hope you have a wonderful day! I love you with all my heart and I miss you! I pray for you and your family every single day. You have influenced my life in more ways then I could say. You are the best "Uncle Dad" there is! :) 

Boy...May I just say this was one of the most rewarding weekends of my mission!? The spirit was overwhelming and it was humbling to think how the Lord and Heavenly Father are willing to bless us with as much as He has! :) Watson got baptized on Saturday and that was soooo special!! The spirit there was undeniable and he bore his testimony at the end. He talked about how he knows this church is true because of the Book of Mormon and "our eyes".  He said the "eyes don't lie" in his cute Asian accent! It was so sweet! He could see the light of Christ and he really does shine with it now! :) Love that!

Watson, Sister Hunt, and I

Another miracle was that Ivy came to the baptism and she is sooooo excited for her baptism now! :) She is incredible! She was perfect from day one! She is getting baptized this coming Friday. Sister Hunt and I found her together and she never has had Word of Wisdom issues, and fell in love with The Book of Mormon instantly! She truly was what missionaries pray for! She was rubbing her cheeks because her face hurt from smiling so much! Talk about someone receptive to the truthfulness of the gospel!

We then continued to be blessed and had three investigators come to church! Ivy, Katie, and Peng. All are doing great! We had some wonderful miracles! I cannot speak really about the way I feel but, I just want to say I know God knows us and loves us, with such an unconditional love. He blesses us when we do what we are supposed to! We truly have been given a "gift" and I know that the ultimate gift is Jesus Christ. There is not a day that I am not influenced by that gift! I hope I can be the best "receiver" of the gift and take good care of what has been given. I love My Savior, He is my everything!!! I love you all and am so thankful for you! You are incredible and I love and miss you! Thank you for your prayers and thoughts! I can feel them and they are working! :)

Love you! 

Love, 

Sister Clegg the 3rd

P.S.

Answer to your question- Over Christmas break we will be assigned to our sister's areas during the break...we have clearance to come back and forth to teach the students that will still be here but, we are mainly going into the other sisters areas. (Back to good old TRACKING!!) haha!! I love it and can't wait!!
