I
don't have a lot of time to email today! Transfers were great- Sister
Winters and I are staying together, and so are the elders, but we got
another set of elders! So now there's six missionaries running around
campus...we're taking over U of M! We also have 3 new baptismal
date-sets!! Literally every single day we've seen miracle after
miracle...Heavenly Father has prepared so many people to hear the
gospel!
We
taught Jeanne about the Word of Wisdom and she loved it! She's a nurse,
so she understands the health benefits, but she also loves her coffee
to get through overnight shifts and her glass of wine at the end of the
day haha...but she said she would give it all up! Her biggest concern
was what her family would say, but she told them she was getting
baptized and they were fine! They were a little sad it wasn't the
Lutheran church, but as long as she's happy and improving her life,
they're all for it.
Vivian
is doing so well! It turns out one of the students in her program is a
member of the church, so they've been talking a lot about the gospel
together. He's married and has been telling her how much the Church has
blessed his family- she really loves how family-centered we are. She
agreed to be baptized next month! We watched Meet the Mormons with her
and a few of our other investigtors and she cried- some of the stories
were really relatable to her and gave her a lot of strength. She's the
best!
Laura
has officially been a member for a whole week! She is SO amazing. And
going on a hecka lot of dates. She's embraced the gospel so incredibly,
the ward is so lucky to have her! Hope everyone has a great week, Happy
Valentine's Day!

of the week: "Oh my gosh, I'm the worst. I'm like the white guy who
told Rosa Parks to go to the back of the bus." -Sister Winters
