(The title of my letter is that because we decided to "weekly plan" outside this week and well...the sun is bright and the morning is .......hot. (Dad you will get that reference.) haha but...lets just say I got a little burnt and tracing for the rest of the week was a pleasant experience!! :) We also found out that sister tua doesn't burn, she just gets darker! :)
Happy Birthday this week to Bey Bey, and Austy roo! I love you both more then ever! You both are such wonderful influences in my life....how did I get so lucky to have you both?
Ummm Where do I start? It was such a good week! We literally had such a solid day...every day! We were so blessed...we found so many new investigators and lots of really good lessons!
Favorite miracle of the week- So, we went on exchanges on Wednesday and I was with Sister Clayson in Crossroads..and we were on our way to teach one of our investigators name Patricia, she is so sweet. She is 68 and her hubby is in a wheelchair and can hardly speak. We found them tracking and they are just so sweet. Patrica the whole time we have been teaching her has said that "she knows the things we are teaching are true" but, she said she would not convert. so we had been over there like 4 times and this time it was basically just to 'make it" of "break it"... so I was basically telling Sister Clayson that we were going to drop her. Well...Heavenly Father made me eat my words! haha I loved it! :) We went and taught her and invited her to church and she said she wasn't sure because of William (her hubby) and this whole time I didn't even think William could talk and he put up his head and said that he wanted to go to church!!! Well, you first should have seen our faces but then second seen Patricias! She was so surprised and was so happy! She said they would both love to! So we came and helped them both into their car on Sunday morning and they followed us to church and they both stayed for all three hours. William with the few words that he specks said he wanted to come next week! :) Whoo! It was awesome!! :)
Update on peeps-
Cherry was supposed to be baptized this weekend but the doctor told her they are inducing her on Thursday....so that maybe a little delayed! haha I guess iI cant be too mad about her having a baby right? We also got to hold her snake this week and that was the creepiest thing in the world! Cherry is going to let us watch the snake be fed tomorrow....ewww...;0
Keli- doing great..she was smoking 20 cigs a day...we have got her down to 10..so there is some progression. Pray for her....
Doug, Zach, Izzy, JT, and shekila are all doing great....moving right along.
We also got to go to 'Mormon Night" at the Indians Baseball game with our ward mission leader on Saturday night! That was really fun....the game got delayed because it started pouring raining! It was really fun!
Some temple dates...Lots of you are asking... Open House will be from July 17th through August 8th ..the dedication on the 23rd. The youth are working on their celebration dance and we were just told that the sister missionaries are going to be able to do some tours and be really involved in the temple open house. I am so glad because I am close to the temple so I hope I will be used a lot!:)
Well, This week was one of the best weeks ever! I just thought about so many times how blessed I was and how thankful I am to be a missionary. I wish you all could see the way the Lord prepares people when there is a temple being built. Less actives, actives, and nonmembers. His work is hastening and He is preparing people to except the gospel. I am just "showing up" and He is doing the rest! how thankful and grateful I am! :)
I love you all! Have a wonderful week of June! Go share the gospel with someone! :)
JOHN 8:29
Love,
Sister Clegg
