Hello!
This week has gone by fast! I know I say that every single week but it's because it's just getting faster. I wish it would slow down a little bit.. being a missionary is just so good!

Good week! I don't have a ton of updates. We met with Dan with a member and taught the Word of Wisdom. That went well! He wants to give a talk in church and so we're trying to see if we can do that because he's not a member. He should just get baptized and then he can give however many talks he wants to! Dan is real cool though!

I LOVE BEING A SISTER TRAINING LEADER!  It's just so much fun! We went to stake coordination on Sunday and were able to talk with the zone leaders and President and Sister Brown and President Hamilton afterward! It was so good! We talked about talking to everyone and Sister Bullock and I have really been implementing that. It has been so great! We've been able to talk to like 60 people already this week outside of tracting! What a blessing!


I also had a great exchange this week with wonderful Sister Quinlan! The Toledo Sisters came up yesterday and Monday and we were able to spend the day with them. WE LOVE THEM SO MUCH! They're so much fun. Sister Quinlan is such a great missionary and I was so blessed to spend the day with her! I love her so much! 
It's been a great week! I'm super excited for tomorrow because we have interviews and district meeting and President and Sister Brown's house. It's my final interview with President Brown, and it's my final interview in the Ohio Cleveland Mission. Pray that I won't cry too hard. lol. I'm so bad at goodbyes! I am just so grateful for President and Sister Brown. They have taught me so much! I love them!

Here is my favorite scripture I read this week!
15 And thus he shall bring salvation to all those who shall believe on his name; this being the intent of this last sacrifice, to bring about the bowels of mercy, which overpowereth justice, and bringeth about means unto men that they may have faith unto repentance. 
16 And thus mercy can satisfy the demands of justice, and encircles them in the arms of safety, while he that exercises no faith unto repentance is exposed to the whole law of the demands of justice; therefore only unto him that has faith unto repentance is brought about the great and eternal plan of redemption.
17 Therefore may God grant unto you, my brethren, that ye may begin to exercise your faith unto repentance, that ye begin to call upon his holy name, that he would have mercy upon you;
I am so just so grateful for our Savior, Jesus Christ. I'm grateful that because of Him we have continuous chances to change. He loves us and wants us to feel of His love. We can feel it most fully through repentant and having faith unto repentance. President Brown said this week that Heavenly Father is always glad, happy, and pleased when His children are repenting. Repentance is a good thing! He really does love us and I know that! 
I love you all! Hope yins have a 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
