Tomorrow is
transfer day and we are getting A THIRD SISTER!! AHHH! We are so excited!!
Except for the fact that our apartment is teeny tiny so all of our three beds
will look like one giant bed because there is no room in the apartment haha but
this is going to be so great! I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store
for UTEP West(:
We taught Monica
again this week and she committed to a baptism date!! Ahhh! I am so excited for
her. She is definitely one of these "golden investigators" everyone
talks about. Every time we teach her she tells us how "The gospel just
feel like home." I hope I am still here to watch her be baptized. She is
going out of town and wont have time until January to be baptized so fingers
crossed I will still be here.
Oh speaking of
baptisms. Our other investigator that was supposed to be baptized on the 7th
wasn't going to be there on Sunday to receive the Holy Ghost so we had to move
his date back until the 21st which was really sad but he is still getting
baptized and that is all that matters right?
This week during
person study time I realized how much I truly love the mission. I love being
able to see people the way our Savior sees them. I love being so spiritually in
tune with the spirit to receive revelation for this area Heavenly Father has
placed me in. I love teaching people about the Atonement and how it can change
their life.
I was reading in 1
Nephi 17:51 and I absolutely love this scripture. It says 'And now, if the Lord
has such great power, and has wrought so many miracles, among the children of
men, how is it that he cannot instruct me, that I should build a ship?" I
love this verse because how true is that. The Lord as brought to pass so many
mighty miracles why should we ever think that he wouldn't help us accomplish
the things he has asked us to? Or why should we ever think he won't help us
overcome a trial we are having?
He is a God of
miracles and wants to help each one of us return to live with Him again. If he
can do all that he has done why can he not help us? Or why would he not help
us? "For behold this is my work and my glory to bring to pass the
immortality and eternal life of man" (Moses 1:39) He glories in us when we
are becoming more like him and when we are overcoming our trials. So why would
he not help us overcome them? Trust Him. Turn to Him and let Him help you. He
can and wants to help you succeed.(:
I love you all and
hope you have the best day of your entire life!(:

FUN FACTS:
1. Our
investigator that is on baptism date asked our district leader if he could date
me.... haha so that was funny.
2. Our zone
leaders dropped by for a random "visit of love" and brought us a
GIANT SUPER THICK carrot cake which I am convinced we will never be able to eat
all of it.
3. Sister Ingold has a 100% rate
of guessing what is going to happen with transfers.
