Hurrah for Israel!

Some times you win sometimes you 'lose'.
 
we had a pretty amazing week.
 
Kaylee (thirteen year old genius) Is doing very well! We had some great lessons and we brought a few young women. Wow! those girls have testimonies the size of skyscrapers! They seriously need to be missionaries (well, technically they already are member missionaries, but 'Full time set-apart door knocking life rocking missionaries' is what I meant).
And this one gal who had come to church a couple times with her friend asked if we could get her a bible. we said, sure! and when we brought it over she was like, do you have a book of Mormon too? OF course we do! So we have been teaching her a bunch too. How cool?! I'm telling you, missionary work is so fun! :D
 
Hmmm.... OH we had this one lady who was CRAZY like 'hootch is crazy' kind of crazy. We knocked on her door and she was all like, "WHAT do you WaNT?" -Well, we're in the neighborhood and we're meeting new people and sharing a scripture with them. Can we share one with you? "As a MAtter OF FacT I Had Bible Study THIS morning!" -That's wonderful! We were actually going to share one with you from the Book of Mor- "NO! Don't YOU Read THAT BoOk!" -What? It's another testament of Christ. "THOSE AREN'T THE WORDS OF CHRIST!!!" -hmm... But- "DON"T HARASS MEEE!!!" -whoa! we weren't trying to harass you. have a good night. (SLAM*)
Great stuff huh?!
 
Sunday was good, testimony meeting is always good. (Most times) It's always fun to sort of see how the testimonies all have an underlining theme. The theme was how the gospel is exciting. Really cool meeting. a bunch of youth got up and bore their testimonies and it was just really great.
 
Speaking of great, HEATHER!!! What amazing news! I hope you are reading this, because if you aren't then... this would be silly, but Wow. I am so happy for you! This is such a wonderful step in your life. But remember that it is only the first step. keep on enduring.
WOW!!!
 
well, that's all for me right now I think... yes.
 
So! thank you for your letters and emails and prayers and well wishes. I love you all!
 
Be well.
 
Have fun!
 
Follow Heather's example!
 
I love you!
