Dearest loved ones!

What a week for you all! Harry..I am so happy for you! You are such a great kid...it will be fun to go home and see you pass the sacrament! :) Things like that are actually really what matter most!! 

This week was awesome! We had MLC this Friday and it was really good. Sister Tua and I had to give a training and we (us and the elders) made a song to mix it up a little and it was so fun! :) Sister Cleveland said she was going to put it on the facebook page...so be looking!  It is pretty funny... you will never imagine what I was...but I was the background dancer!  It is quite a sight to see!!  

MLC was so good....President is a wonderful man...he is such a coach!! Always knows how to fire us up! :) We have interviews with President this week and Zone meetings so that will be fun! :) 

The peeps are doing great! Cherry had her BABY!!!! :) We had 5 people at church this week and were incredibly blessed! 

I am sorry this is short...we have very little time...sorry! I love you all! You are the best! :) 

Love,
Sister Clegg


Letter 2:

Okay....we got more time...so I can get be a little more detailed!

It was a little delayed because we were sitting in the library and all of a sudden these two chicks just started beating each other up and then things got real!  It was intense...Sister Tua and I just sat there in awe....we are totally fine but, it got a little cra cra! :) whoo!!  #onlyincrossroads

haha wooo...okay I will try and welcome the spirit!! :) 

Saturday was a very pleasant surprise and I saw an Idaho number show up on our phone and I was driving and so Sister Tua answered it and a very familiar voice said..."Is Sister Clegg there?" Lone and behold it was President Boren! I about died! haha We made plans that night and we went out for pie...it was so special to see him and I was reminded so quickly how blessed I am to have a Branch President like him. He is such a good man and I am so thankful for that tender moment in time. That was an hour  I will never forget! :)

I love you all so much and I am so thankful for this gospel. It brings so much peace in a world full of craziness. I also am so thankful for being able to serve in Crossroads! I have seen some crazy things but, boy no one can beat the people here. They instantly love you and take you as one of their own. They are so incredibly humble and have huge hearts. I have and had lots to learn from these people. I love them and I am so thankful for what they are allowing me to become. I read a quote by CS Lewis this week that I absolutely loved... 

"Give me all of you!!! I don’t want so much of your time, so much of your talents and money, and so much of your work. I want YOU!!! ALL OF YOU!! I have not come to torment or frustrate the natural man or woman, but to KILL IT! No half measures will do. I don’t want to only prune a branch here and a branch there; rather I want the whole tree out! Hand it over to me, the whole outfit, all of your desires, all of your wants and wishes and dreams. Turn them ALL over to me, give yourself to me and I will make of you a new self---in my image. Give me yourself and in exchange I will give you Myself. My will, shall become your will. My heart, shall become your heart.”

Our purpose is pretty simple. It is to allow Christ to kill the natural man. Let that part go and give it all to our loving Heavenly Father. He can create more than we could have imagined, its just are we willing to let go of the one thing that halts our progression. The natural man. As the good old folks from crossroads say.."Let go, and Let God" 

 I love you all. I know Christ can transform us all. I have seen it... I have experienced it...and continue to everyday. 

Love you! 

Love  

Sister Clegg
