Great Week!


Hello mi familia!
This week has been great! We went to the temple last Wednesday and man, oh man, I LOVE THE TEMPLE! We did an endowment session and a bunch of initiatory sessions and it was so great. I just love the temple so much and the best things are inside that will help us be with Heavenly Father and our Savior and our families forever! There is nothing greater than that! 

Also we did service at a member's farm and we found kittens there! They were sooooo cute! I died! 

Also MLC (Missionary Leadership Counsel) was this week and that was bomb! It was so great to be able to counsel with all the leaders of the OCM! I was able to see so many people I loved too! What a blessing! Also it's super fun because we get to carpool with the zone leaders from the Toledo Stake. We all get to party it up in the mini van! That's what we drive. It turned 10,000 miles this week. It's so much fun! It was a blast, but it was weird being in a car with so many boys again! MLC was so great though! We talked about what we want to do with this next transfer and how we can further the work and there are going to be some great things happening! Yay!

Also Sister Bullock and I went to visit a former investigator. His name is Gene. He was going to give us a bike.  To try it out, he gave me a pair of overalls that were cut off to be shorts to wear under my skirt. I naturally put them on! Missions make you do weird things! hah! I love Ohio!

Brother Viola was released from the branch presidency, but was called to be the Elder's Quorum President in the Bowling Green Ward! So I'll still be able to work with him again! I got a picture with him though. He's super kind! 

Hope yins have a great week!
Love, Sister Grant

I love Ohio!

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
