Howdy!
Hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas, what better of a way to celebrate the savior's birthday than on a day we worship him! So awesome! Love this gospel!
Monday was just another plain Jane P-day, we played some basketball with the zone and just chilled. It was fun. But Monday night we came back to Medina and had an appointment with Melissa and Dustin. Elder
Marks and I had tracted into them a transfer ago! And we haven't taught them till now. And they are honest seekers of truth. They are so awesome! We taught them the restoration and they both want to be baptized, along with their daughter Journey! They are way cool!
Tuesday, the landlord came and inspected our apartment... haha missionaries before me were pigs... I'm not a mess I promise! But the apartment was dirty, so she was a little mad with us. But we had been trying to clean it as much as possible! She came and after she left we took a couple hours to just dejunk the place. We ended up taking out 10 gargbage sacks full of stinky blankets and trash out of the apartment! So it was pretty cluttered up! We taught Jeremiah the laws of fasting and tithing. He is kinda steering in the wrong direction as of
progressing in the gospel as of now. But we are working with him. We saw Susan and Marques! Last time we were there Susan was telling us she had concerns about race and the priesthood, so we addressed it the best we could. Then today we had an article we were going to read and she said she didn't want to read it because the problem is in the past and that she has moved on and it doesn't bother her anymore. And now they will be baptized January 7th!!! So awesome!
Wednesday, we taught Jackie Pletcher about the plan of salvation, she loved it! But we will end up dropping her cause she doesn't come to church. Then we had exchanges, Elder Jaynes came up to Medina with me!
And we had a really good time! Elder Jaynes is so cool! We went to the Bible study at the Gateway to Heaven again, and they showed us their baptismal font... haha it's like 10' deep! It was crazy! I couldn't help but laugh!
Thursday, Elder Jaynes and I had a good day of tracting! We handed out 4 book of Mormons, and our goal was to have a lesson with every Book of Mormon! We met it! We had a lesson with every Book of Mormon! It was so sick! Then we had district meeting!
Friday, we taught Mike the Word of Wisdom, he has some problems with it but he said he will be willing to give it up if he gets to become a member because of it. Mike is so awesome! I love going to their house! They are so nice and so inviting. I know he will overcome his stumbling block. He's a great guy.
Saturday, Christmas Eve! We went to Pittsford! We had a huge mission Christmas conference! It was a lot of fun! Got see everyone in the mission, it was a really good time! Had a really spirit felt devotional at the end. It was a really good conference!
Sunday, Christmas Day! We opened presents in the morning and had an hour long church! Then spent the rest of the day at member's homes! Then at 6 o'clock I got to FaceTime home! It was awesome to see my family! It was just what I needed! Missions are literally the best! I'm loving mine!
I love you all! Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! Hope you had a great week and one to come!
This church is so true! The knowledge we have of prophets and apostles is amazing, only if people knew what they are missing out on. Haha!
Love,
Elder Judy
