this week was a good one! it honestly has been a blur but i’ll
report on what i can remember haha.
• we have been teaching erin almost every day and she is SO
ready to be baptized! she is so smart and knows more than we could even teach
her haha! she is so eager to get baptized saturday and we are so happy to be
there for her.
• we had a few lessons with ryan again this week. he is still
preparing for baptism in july, but we are taking it one step at a time with
him. because he was a former youth pastor, he knows a lot but he is slowly but
surely gaining understanding!
• also we received a ton of new missionaries! one of my former
companions, sister nuttall, was down in lansing picking up her new companion
from the airport so we were able to meet up and get some chick fil a!

• we have been working to use facebook more to share messages
about light and hope through Christ! you should check out our video :)
and
if you like what you see, go check out the page Church of Jesus Christ in South
Central Michigan :)
• we had a very powerful and spiritual mission-wide devotional
last night with president and sister gentile. he is in the mission presidency
and is absolutely wonderful. they shared the experience of their 19 month old
daughter having cancer. it was so powerful to see how the Lord strengthened
them in this challenging time. he made note of a few specific things that
helped them through that time and how it will help us in our challenges.
1. God is Omnipotent and in the details
2. put your faith in the eternal Christ- not in earthly outcomes
3. He weeps with you—out of compassion and understanding
4. all these things will give you experience and shall be for
your good
5. He will hold you
6. look outward—be God's hands
7. gratitude is empowering
8. seek the Lord's will
9. ask in faith; then go and do
love y’all!! we shall see what happens with transfers this next
week :)
