Hey Everyone!
We got to go to Glenwood Springs for
our Mission Leader Counsel! It was so much fun! I love driving out west.
I love Glenwood Canyon! So beautiful. The worst part of the trip was
that we were in a van full of elders. Sister Gage and I were the only
sisters and let me tell you, they stunk really bad. I don't know what
was going on, but he smelled like stinky feet. I had to crack open some
coconut lotion.
We
got a call from President Murdock kind of freaking out a little asking
if we are okay and where we were. We were on our way to Glenwood Springs
for a mission leader counsel. Well we told him we were fine. He then
says, "Sister Gage, your dad called me. And he is really worried." Both
of our stomachs dropped. But he said that her dad has had some scary
feelings about us and was really worried. So worried that he over
nighted a letter to her to make sure to tell her to be careful. Ever
since then we have been on our toes a little more. Bishop recently had
us give up 2 young singles to the elders because they are dirty and talk
dirty. I have a feeling that was what could have been worrying Sister
Gage's dad.
This
week I had a lot of experiences where I felt really inspired to do
something. It was neat. I felt like we needed to bring someone to a
lesson who we never brought before and it was perfect. We stopped by
someone randomly who we didn't plan and who has never invited us back
and they want to go to church now. I love those things!
We
are trying to think a little more out of the box to try to find new
investigators. We are averaging 2 new investigators a week and want to
jump it up to 6. I know it's possible. We really need to rely on
referrals from members. We have some ideas with doing missionary
fireside. There is an amazing CD called, "The Missionary Next Door". I
want all of you to order it right now and listen to it, make your kids
listen to it, and make your friends listen to it. It's amazing! Sister
Gage had me listen to it and I almost refused because I thought it was
going to be boring or stupid. It was amazing! Please. I want you all to
have it in your homes! I guarantee your kids will be more involved in
missionary work!
Well I love you so much! Thanks for all your prayers and love and support! You are all amazing!
