Well Hi everyone!
This week was... kind of a blah week.
It happens.
No investigators at church this week, Brenda didn't show and
Jenna was sick (or hungover, we're thinking...) but Sister Carambelas and I
taught Gospel Principles! We talked about The Church of Jesus Christ in Former
Times- the church that Christ established when He was on the Earth. The lesson
gave six points that the true church must have, or else it doesn't work. I love
that we can see all of those points in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints! For a great lesson, so check that chapter out :) We had a great turn
out in the class of ward missionaries, and a man who was baptized a year ago
that we are teaching the new members lessons to. Sister C totally beasted in
teaching- after all, she wants to teach high school history in the future! So,
we had fun. then in Relief Society we played conference bingo and ate a million
starbursts. What a great Sunday!
Probably the most interesting thing that happened this week
was Jenna. I think we stopped by to see her three days in a row. She is really
struggling, going through terrible withdrawals just for trying to decrease her
intake of alcohol. On one of these visits we helped her as she threw up outside
of her front door. Man, we just want to help her so much! She has been through
so much and really needs so much help! All we can do really is pray for her,
and try to find her some rehab program. Oh, and teach her that God loves her no
matter what! So please keep Jenna in your prayers!
We finished teaching Brenda the Plan of Salvation, but it's
still slow going. She's taking everything in and trying to reconcile everything
between her mind and heart. We still have a long way to go! So Brenda is in
need of prayers as well, because is struggling to accept some of our teachings.
We had a great zone conference this week! And guess what? I
guess our car looked clean to Elder William, the vehicle coordinator, because
we won the golden plates!
Which is weird because the inside of our windows were smudgy
and we didn't vacuum, just shook out the mats. But I'm happy! We did scrub the
car with those window cleaners at the gas pumps before running it through the
car wash!! Haha
Well, transfer news is this Saturday, so I'll email next
Wednesday for P-day. Who thinks I'm getting transferred? Lets get those
predictions written down! I only wish I already had an answer :/
Love you all! I am so thankful for the support you send my
way and for your testimonies that you share with me. I know that I couldn't do
this if I didn't know with everything in my being that this is right and true!
I know that I have found happiness and peace through the Gospel of Jesus
Christ, and I want everyone to know (and accept!) the Gospel to have that peace
too! I hope you all are looking for simple ways to share what you believe
everyday!
You are all AWESOME! I love you!
Love, Sister Hailey Brown
Ps- here is a picture of Sister Carambelas and Sister
Garrett sucking up green jello out of star shaped ice molds. because they
wouldn't come out of the mold :)
