I Don't Have a Title for This One



Hello familia!
This week was a blur! It's been good though! 

We taught Connie the restoration on Saturday. She is so sweet. She even made us cookies! To refresh your memories (because it's been a LONG time since we've seen Connie)... Connie was a referral for a large print Book of Mormon. Her granddaughter is a convert in the YSA branch here and is on a mission in the Idaho ❤ Boise Mission. We're now teaching Connie the lessons because she wants to know what her granddaughter believes. We met with her like Sister Grimnes' first week in the field (aka like 6 or 7 weeks ago) and haven't been able to meet with her since, but we've talked on the phone a lot so that's good! But we were able to teach her the Restoration and that's my favorite lesson to teach. It's the best. So many blessings have come from the resoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I'm so grateful that I know that Joseph Smith was called to be a prophet and was called to open the last dispensation! We have the priesthood in our church and can be sealed to our families and we have a prophet to day! President Nelson teaches us things to help us and our families! So many blessing have come from the Restoration! I love it!

Also some time last week was Ohio Statehood day! Sister Nielson, a member in the ward, gave us Ohio shaped cookies to celebrate! They were so cute!

I can't think of anything else to update you on. Have a great week! I love you all!

Love, Sister Grant

P.S. The tower we heard was a prayer tower and now it's used for some company (phones? idk) but we call it the Tower of Babel.

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

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
