Happy birthday to the babe herself! I hope your day is great tomorrow Cate:) Congrats to Shannon & Wes! Tell Shannon she looked beautiful at her wedding!
So my new companion is Sister Nakata from Cincinnati! So fun because she actually knows McKell and Erin from back home! Such a small world. She is so funny and awesome to be around, this transfer is going to be so fun:)
The women's session of conference was so, so great! I loved how all of the talks were centered on Faith in different aspects of our lives. "Faith in every footstep." That is something I want to develop. I know that if we have more faith than burdens are much easier to bear and challenges can be met with hopeful hearts. I always feel the spirit when I get to hear from our church leaders. Ahh I hope you all got to watch it:)
This week we picked up an investigator named George! He is from a part-member family. The other week we were seeing his wife and we asked her if he would be interested in taking the lessons. She said, "you should give him that pamphlet!" So we walked outside and gave it to him and asked if we could teach him and he said "sure!" I thought that was pretty funny. God really does soften people's hearts over time :) He used to not be interested at all in religion, but recently with his granddaughter being baptized it has changed his heart. He said he felt chills when she was baptized and that he knew Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. It was a pretty neat experience!
So we lost the car this week... so back to biking! :) Haha. I can't complain at all because even though this area is huge, unlike my last area, it is much more bike-able!
We had dinner with Sister Tyssens this week who is from Cambodia and she made the greatest Asian food I have ever had. It was like we were at a restaurant hahah. She also taught us how to make homemade eggrolls, buuuut sadly I forgot already haha.
& then Saturday was the 5k run for the Religious Coalition of Frederick! There were a couple hundred runners there which was awesome. My time was sadly... very, very awful haha but the elders actually ran in the tops of their proselyting clothes which was pretty funny.
So that's the stuff I remember from this week:) Dr. Kearl emailed me about my back, so mom expect a call for my MRI stuff pretty soon. I also forwarded you guys what he sent me.
love you love you!:) Xo Sister Stolworthy
