Things are going well this week. It was a holiday yesterday, as you know. Today we had some new missionary training and then we decided to come email and look at mormon.org since we can do that now. It is pretty sweet. ya'll should check it out. I like it. I love the videos.
It was pretty sweet. The other day we had about 20 minutes before an appt. I felt like we should go see L. J.. She manages 7 Sonics in downtown Houston so she is super busy. We found her in the area book and she was super amazing! We just weren't able to get in to see her again. Anyway, we went. She let us right in and unloaded some info on us. It was cool because she said, "I don't know why I like you guys, but I do. You've started me on this journey (of forgiveness, repentance, etc). I didn't feel that there was hope before, but now I feel there is hope." It was way sweet! She said she always drives by the church and thinks, "I need to go there." So she'll come in one day. We are planning on giving her a tour of the church and committing her to baptism. It would help her a lot.
S. B. came to church again! We've been reading the Book of Mormon with him at his home and he gets so excited every time. He joined the church about 11 years ago in Florida but hasn't been active in like 11 years....well, he's come to church 2 out of the last 3 weeks. He likes it. It makes me so happy since that was one of my goals....to see him in church. He is pretty cool.
J. P. (from A. ward) called me Sunday night...I was super surprised. She told me that J. (her husband) was planning on getting baptized at 3 on Saturday and asked if I would be coming and if I could sing in the special musical number. I was so happy! Sister W. and I started teaching him. They've come to church every Sunday since May. Her parents are super active in south Houston and I'm so excited. They have such a cute family! So anyway, the gospel is still true!
Hmmm...what else? I don't even know. Things are good here. I am planning on sending a box home next week....it has random stuff in it.
Oh..did I tell you about NASA and how we get to go? Well, if I didn't....we get to go on the 31st....if I did tell you...I'm still way excited about it. :)
I've finally memorized The Living Christ document. I've got it down pretty well now. I'm really excited. It is full of doctrine and awesomeness about the Savior. I heart it.
I love being a missionary, as you all know. It is the best thing ever! Even when the tag comes off, I will still get to be a missionary. Just not full time, which will be sad. That is why I just won't do it for another little while.
I love all of you! I hope that you have a good week and I look forward to hearing from you next week.....OH! Except that we are talking about not emailing next week so we can go play volleyball/have some fun...if we do that, I will write you a letter....deal? :D
Love,
Jackie
