A Few Things Have Happened

Hello mi familia! 
This week was so fast I really can only remember a few things that happened.

First off, TRANSFERS! No, I am not getting transferred and neither is Sister Bullock we're together for another 5 weeks! There are changes for the sisters I serve with here. The sister's area in Perrysburg is closing which means that we have to say goodbye to two of the best sisters ever! Sister Davis goes home on Thursday and Sister Hathaway is going to the Youngstown stake (I love that stake)! They're wonderful! We are sad to see them go! The St. Mary's sisters are staying the same. Yay for exchanges with Sister Pixton and Sister Gutierrez again.  We love them too! And the most bittersweet news of all is that Sister Warren is leaving to go to Akron. She will love it there. It's the best ward! But it's okay that she's leaving even though I will miss her SO much because SISTER GRIMNES IS COMING TO FREMONT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get to serve with my baby again! I love Baby Girmnes and I cannot wait to see her again! And Elder Haderlie is coming here too! We'll be in the same district and this will be the third district that we're in together. I can't wait to see both of them again. Especially Sister Grimnes! yay!! Good things are happening! 

We got in contact with a super solid former investigator. Sister Bullock has talked about her so much and we were able to see her thanks to some great members who tracked her down (in a good way that isn't as creepy as it sounds 😊)! We're meeting with her on Thursday! Yay!

We had a great lesson with Dan on Saturday. We took Bishop Mullins with us and he is so cool. We were all so on the same page and he taught Dan about recognizing answers to prayers. It was really great! Dan wants to be more involved in the church. We know he will recognize an answer! He isn't sure about being baptized. He's never been baptized but he wants to because he knows that it what Christ says in the Bible, but his family is a major factor.. We hope for good things! Pray for Dan and his family please! Thank you!

We went on exchanges with St. Mary's again last week. I had the privilege of going with Sister Pixton and I love her so much. She is an incredible missionary. Her words always sound good. It's so cool! We met a Chaplin at the post office when we were sending letters home. Not only was he a Chaplin but he was a biker Chaplin and he was very excited to see us. What a kind man! He gave hugs :/ BUT he also gave us a copy of a biker prayer! So great! I love Ohio!

We also moved a new family into the ward this week. They're a young couple from Arizona and Brother Motes is playing football for BG in the fall. So that's cool! Sister Motes played volleyball at Arizona state. I hope I can play with her sometime. They're so cute! 

Still helping Sister Noffsinger settle into her new apartment.. lol. The Elders and we read the Book of Mormon with her this week. I love reading the Book of Mormon! ❤

The best thing ever this week! I got to Skype the family (including Kennedi!)! That was so great! I love them more than anything! BEST PEOPLE IN THE WHOLE WORLD! 
I love you all! 
Hope yins have a great, great week! 

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

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
