I mustache you a Q

October 26, 2015

Emily you are a rockstar for running a half-marathon. But seriously, you rock! And Ally you looked like a babe at homecoming! I have the cutest seesters:) And thank you Grandpa Reed and Aunt Sandra for the awesome Halloween package. And thank you to the CTR class for the cute letter :) Love you guys.

This week was so fun! Tuesday we had interviews with President. I love President and Sister Christiansen so dang much- they are some of the kindest people I have ever known. Something President said really stuck out to me. He said, "We aren't just planting seeds, but we are harvesting them." I think it is so cool how much the Lord is hastening His work. He also told me that I should brush up on my ASL since Frederick is home of the Maryland School for the Deaf. So cool:))

So Monday was great because we got teach our investigator Lisa about the Book of Mormon and then give her a church tour! She is so hilarious and can chat for days about how much she loves God. She has such a good heart and said that our baptismal font was super fancy so she would definitely pray about what she's been taught haha. I love her.

Tuesday I went to the doctor at the American Spine pain management center and he told me that I need to get a new MRI since mine is about 4 years old so I shall be doing that this Friday.../: I start physical therapy Thursday. I have mixed emotions but I'm grateful I can be refreshed on the exercises that will help:) Tuesday was the Relief Society "Unbirthday" activity. There were a lot of less-actives there which was really great to see.

Then Wednesday we had the opportunity to volunteer at the ARC. The ARC helps adults with disabilities. We got to do activities with those who are in the day program. I loved it so much- my mission just keeps reaffirming how excited I am to do special education when I get home:)

We also taught the 10 year old we are teaching this week about the plan of salvation! I love object lessons:) Then we had the chance to go on exchanges Friday. I got to go to Mt. Airy again with Sister Lundin! I had so much fun getting to be with her. Mt. Airy is very pretty because it is basically all country. It's crazy being somewhere like this because I am not use to it at all! Haha. The leaves are beautiful and are changing so many different colors. We got to visit a lot of less-actives there with a member in their ward. I also got to pet a horse.

We are having sisters conference this Wednesday! Sister Lundin, Sister Rogers, Sister Nakata and I went and scoped out the hike for Sister Christiansen. We will be hiking Cunningham Falls up in Thurmont. It is so pretty:) While we were there they were filming a commercial for the state of Maryland. They said we could be in it but we would have to sign waivers... yes my chance for fame came! Hahah, but sadly we left before filming.

I love you guys so much, and I pray for you all the time! I am so grateful for the Lord, and for the ability he has to change us. Have a great week!:) Love, Sister Stolworthy
