Miracles


This week has been so great! The gospel of Jesus Christ can touch people and it is so awesome to see!
We were able to meet with Jenn this week and it was a total miracle! We had an appointment planned with Perry and Chloe Palmer (member) was going to come. Perry canceled like 20 minutes before we were suppose to be there.. so lame.. but Chloe was already on her way because she lives like the farthest away from us she could. So we told her to meet us at the library instead of Perry's house. We went to visit Shawnee, but she wasn't home so we went to see if Jenn was home AND SHE WAS! She let us in and we were able to teach her the Plan of Salvation. The best thing was that we asked if she had the opportunity to pray about the Book of Mormon and she said she did and then that night when she was in bed she closed her eyes and she saw the word YES flash in front of her eyes and she felt the Spirit so strong. She said she was so excited she couldn't sleep! She had remembered Sister Winsor telling her about how she felt the Spirit when she learned the Book of Mormon was true and she was so excited to feel what Sister Winsor had been talking about! IT WAS SO GREAT!

Also on Sunday the Scheitinger's were signed up to feed us! (yay!) Sister Winsor and I were running a little behind though.. typical.. We showed up like 10 minutes late and right when we pulled into their driveway we got a text from Sister Scheitinger that said they had picked up Nikki, Becky, and Katie for dinner. Those are our investigators! They had picked them up and brought them to dinne.! I cried a little because that was just such a happy moment! We were able to have dinner with them all and it was awesome!

Becky and Nikki came to church again this week! (Yay!) They thought it was good! Nikki even volunteered in Relief Society to bring lights for the Young Women to use. It was so awesome! Nikki is progressing super well right now. To reach her baptism date on the 16th of December she needs to be done smoking by Saturday. She's already cut down two and a half packs, but this last half will be hard. She got a blessing on Sunday and is determined to do it. I have no doubt that she'll be able to! Will you please keep her in your prayers? Thank you!

This week was awesome! I hope all of yours were too!

Thank you for all of your prayers, letters, and love!

Love, Sister Grant

Hey fam! This week went by crazy fast. Honestly, time just needs to slow down. I'm not quite ready to go home yet. Don't get me wrong. I'm excited to see all of you, but I'm really sad to be leaving. I'm trying to soak it all in while I can!  This week was a super one! We had exchanges and both Sister Bretz and her trainee, Sister Anderson, came to Roseville. It was so much fun! I was able to spend the whole day with Sister Anderson and she's awesome. I swear when I had been out for 3 weeks I said maybe like 3 words a day (okay maybe that's an exaggera tion). I was so nervous and it took me a super long time to get used to the missionary way, but Sister Anderson was bomb! She killed it the whole day! We studied the Plan of Salvation together. Wow. I love Heavenly Father so much! He loves so much. His plan for us to have joy and to return to Him with our families (aka the Plan of Salvation) is literally perfect. Jesus Christ makes it all possible to

Loving the MTC and a Testimony

Dear Mom, Dad, Collin, Kenna, and Katy,  (letter written on Sunday, June 4th) Record Katy's setting apart! Then you can type it and send it to her. Sister Warren did that and I think it's a great idea. How is Katy? I honestly can't think about her leaving because it makes me wanna cry. I know that I had such a bad day (the second day only - every day has been better since) I'm worried about her. I know I shouldn't be and I'm trying not to, but it's hard not to! I've really learned to fully rely on the Lord. He has felt these exact same things we've felt. He will help us through them. We taught our first investigator (an MTC one) on Monday. I was terrified. We taught her the Restoration (which I have learned a lot about). Her name is Patty and she had a son that died. We shared with her some trials in our life and how we know God had helped us through. Parents, the spirit was so strong! I didn't even need my notes. I just spoke from my heart

Best Exchange Ever

Image
On an exchange with Sister Jenkins. The house of many children. It has been a really good week! Even though we kinda got dropped by Perry. That was sad, but we're trying to see what we can do.  We went on exchanges yesterday and IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! I was with Sister Jenkins again! It was her last exchange because she goes home and transfers are next week. It will be so sad to see her go. She was Sister Reddish's trainer so she is my grandma. She gave me an ugly floral shirt that she's worn throughout her mission and I feel so honored! But it was so fun to be with her. She is super great at talking to people and she is such a great example to me. We visited a lot of their less actives while I was there and we visited this one family who has 4 kids and then they take in their neighborhood kids - so so many kids were at their house while we were teaching about service! It was so loud and chaotic, but when we started to teach about service it was really good and
