Hello Everyone!
It was a birthday this week!
It was awesome :)
We had District Meeting, and one of the sisters let it slip
that it was my birthday, so they all sang to me and we went out to lunch after
to Macaroni Grill, where they brought me a little cake with candles and our
waitress sang happy birthday in Italian. She was amazing! Turns out that is why
she was hired :)
Then someone told our dinner that night it was my birthday
too! She bought a cake and a card and a balloon- and they don't even eat cake!
And they sang again and I blew out all 22 candles she put on it. :)
The next day Sister Cole and I had another mini-party with
all the accessories you sent me, mom! And we ate more cake. Since the members
sent us home with the whole cake! Because they don't eat anything unhealthy,
like cake. :)
This week I spent two days down in the Desert Ridge ward
with Sister Baham, and we did a lot of knocking on doors in the heat. But we
had fun :) But I did miss some exciting things in my ward! Sister Cole met with
two new investigators this week! Hopefully I can meet them soon! And we were
expecting about 5 nonmembers at church yesterday! But we ended up sitting
alone. But it turns out Justin (investigator) and Tonya (returning less active)
showed up in the middle of sunday school, so we had a lesson with them
after church. So someone showed! yay!
We have a lot of good work going on here. Unfortunately it's
being slowed by summer vacations. Too bad we don't get a summer vacation! But I
am so thankful everyday that I live with members who keep the house at 70
degrees or cooler, and that the AC in our car works. Tender Mercies :)
I LOVE being on a mission and serving the Lord, because I
know that I am doing the Lord's work and He is proud of me. I am learning to be
more Christ-like everyday, and we are striving to help everyone we meet become
closer to Christ! Even in the scorching heat, I love this work. :)
I love you all! Thank you for your support and your
love!
Love, Sister Hailey Brown
