Dear family and friends,

This week has been pretty good! A few ups and downs, but a good week overall.

Nova and Alex are still looking really great for their baptism on July 25. We found out this week that Alex actually has his own place, so they won't have to rush everything to get married first before they get baptized! Nova is awesome! She is really determined to turn her life around and really wants to be baptized as soon as possible. She is also still helping Alex to cut down on smoking and drinking coffee which is really awesome of her!

Libby is doing great as well! Sister Delim and I got to teach her about the Restoration this week. It's so crazy because she seriously doesn't have hardly any understanding about the Bible, but her testimony about the Book of Mormon is so amazing! She has been through heaps of bad stuff throughout her life so far and the gospel has been able to touch her and make her a better, much happier person! We set a baptismal date for her for July 11 and she was so excited! I can't wait for her baptism!

Felicity is also doing well. We taught her about the Plan of Salvation and the Gospel of Jesus Christ this week. She's so cute! When we were teaching her about the Plan of Salvation she started asking about her baptism and if we could move it back a couple weeks because she didn't feel like she would be ready by July 4, so we moved her date back to July 25, which is fine because now we will only have to go over there once a week instead of twice.

I FINALLY got to see the Meet the Mormons movie yesterday!! It was awesome and really uplifting! I def cried during it...

Last thing for this week. My companion is seriously really great! I for sure have a testimony that there is a reason why we were put together. This week she was able to help me realize that sometimes I have a tendency to be a bit hard on myself. I have always been that way and have always had really high expectations of myself, but I was able to realize this week that sometimes that isn't very healthy. Lucky for me though I am in the best position being on a mission to be able to work on it. I love the gospel and I love my Savior. The church is true!

 

Love yous heaps!
