October 24, 2011

This week was crazy crazy busy and fast. We had specialized training in Regina on Thursday so we got to go down on Wednesday and stay all day Thursday. We stayed with a member family in one of the wards that have 4 little girls! It was so fun to be there. In the morning they put on a singing show for us...they all have beautiful voices, I was very impressed. It was fun to be with the zone for training. We talked a lot about using members and finding. We are implementing a survey as finding ideas!! We ask people to take a quick survey...there are a couple different topics that we use...and so far they have proven very effective!! It is so great. Sister Roper and I were super busy the rest of the week! We taught all day every day pretty much. We had two really HUGE lessons with two investigators...hopefully they will be setting baptism dates for themselves this week and we can go from that point! But we hit some of their concerns and really got down to it. It’s amazing what can happen when you listen and follow the spirit. We’re really excited about it. A couple of sisters that have been home for a while came up for a sealing of a girl they taught and saw get baptized...it was fun to have them here. The couple who got sealed in the temple bore their testimony in church...Arianne is really good friends with the wife and it really hit her. She is SO excited to go to the temple! I love her excitement for it. She is coming as fellowship to a couple appointments with us this week!! It should be SOOO good...natuuuurrally.

It’s gotten quite chilly around here. No snow yet...but we have scraped our windows a time or two and have shivered as we came back inside...it's a sign. Last week we bought all of Sister Roper’s big winter gear...it got her all excited. :) Bring it on.

Things are great...things are really really great. We are sooooo busy and have been sooooooo blessed its crazy! I love it.

I hope you are all doing just as well and even better. Love you all so much.

Be good. Remember who you are. Live it. Love it.
