Sacrifice

Hiya!

Thanks for the pie recipe! We've got some Elders in our district that are going home at the end of this transfer and they have requested that I make them apple pie. So we will see how that goes. We did have a really good week. We taught a lot of lessons, and we still have 3 baptismal dates, and they are all really solid! We are working with really good people! Miracle story though! We are working with a part-member family. The family is less active, and their 11-year-old daughter was never baptised, but she has a baptismal date in June now, and her family is already preparing for her baptism! It's great! And, they all came to church with her yesterday! Her less-active parents and her younger brother all came dressed in their Sunday best, and we were floating on air! We were so happy! :) It's amazing to see the change that the gospel makes in people's lives. All for the better! :D

You have had a busy week but it sounds like it has been loads of fun! I am really excited for another move (it's about time!) I kinda like the change, and especially as a missionary you have to get used to change and adjust quickly, so I have been prepared for this for a long time! 

 

The weather has been sunny and warm for about a week now! I hope it continues, but I heard that they are forecasting rain tomorrow. :/ Hope it stays away! So, just to share something really quick. I have recently been studying 'Our Heritage' and it has been really good. I read today about the sacrifices made by the people to go on missions and to build the Nauvoo temple. No matter what we are asked to sacrifice, it won't be as hard or as great as the sacrifice made by our Saviour for us, so we should be willing to sacrifice anything to repay him for the kindness and love that He showed by His sacrifice. 

 

I hope you guys have another great week and I am looking forward to hearing what happens next week! Love and miss you all! :)

 

Love,

Sister Connery :)
