FAMILY!
Holy! I feel like you all grew up 5 years this week! :) Brenny's senior night and my little baby sister is entering the two digit numbers! WHO SAID YOU COULD GROW UP? You all sound like you are all doing good and I miss you all!
This week was awesome! Wow! :) Ivy didn't get baptized like she was supposed to...but, I know she will. I actually had a really touching experience with her. We were talking on the phone and I asked her if she would say a prayer over the phone and she said one of the most heartfelt sincere prayers. She wants direction. I won't forget the conversations we had in that moment in time. I will tell you all about it in person. It is one of those that paper does no justice! (Lets face it...that is the story of my mission and trying to explain what happened everyday!?) Please pray for her will you? She just NEEDS TO GET IN THE WATER! I have tried everything and almost from every angle, but I am not giving up! The Lord knows her....we will continue to press forward! :)
Okay so random event but...Sister Hunt and I were able to go play soccer with the Purdue soccer team this week! haha! We are teach a girl from the team and she said we could come play with her and the girls and President gave us the okay ...so we did! :) (Erika is the investigator we are teaching on the team!) Did I play??? NOOOOO! haha!! I fetched the balls for the team and so they never stopped playing the whole time! (they kept me running!) haha!! I was the ultimate "ball girl"!! I loved it! Sister Hunt did incredible and it was really fun! :) We actually had some really good gospel conversations just by simply introducing who we were! There is no way that we would have been able to have the conversations that we did if we were just on campus with the whole soccer team. It was so cool! I had a thought after we left that those girls would accept the gospel or let missionaries in one day down the road (or hopefully ASAP) because of the "unique" encounter they had with sister missionaries while attending Purdue. It was a cool thought. If Sister Hunt is leaving this transfer then I need to learn how to play soccer real quick! haha!!
So, that was really fun! :)
We are having a lot of grace right now! We had another girl just "walk" into church yesterday and we now have a new investigator. That is the 3rd time that has happened! Three weeks in a row! I don't know why or how..but I am thankful and will continue to recognize the Lord in EVERYTHING! We are being so blessed!
I think what I want to bear my testimony this week of the scriptures! I have found so much comfort, peace, clarity, and direction from those sacred words of the prophets. I love those records of the Savior. I know they are true and contain the path for eternal life! I love them and I take that hour of personal study so sacred and special to me! It is the best time of the day! (Well ...maybe...it all is pretty dang good!) I am thankful for scripture!
"If you want to talk to God... pray! If you want Him to talk to you...open up the scriptures!"
I love you all! McCall have a wonderful Birthday! Expect something in the mail! I love you and wish I could give you a big bear hug for your birthday but, I will in my heart! :)
I love you!
Love,
Sister Clegg
Mosiah 3:17 and 19 :)
