Toledo Zoo and Detroit MLC

HELLO!
What a great week I had! Here are some highlights!

First off, HAPPY LATE 4TH OF JULY! We went to the Toledo zoo! It was a great time! It's also an aquarium! I LOVE FISH! Also I fed a giraffe and saw an elephant!!!!!! Basically it was the best day of my life so far. I love the 4th of July! 

We also went to good ole Michigan this week for MLC! That was so great! I saw Sister Rice! She's a family friend from home and now we're in the same mish! Cool stuff! 

Tyler is on date to be baptized on September 8th! We think we're going to have to push Dan's date for baptism back. He really desires to know the church is true but has had a hard time receiving and recognizing an answer. He has a lot of deep concerns and questions. Please keep Dan in your prayers to understand and recognize and to have faith in the truth. Thank you! 

We went on exchanges yesterday with the Toledo sisters. We love them so much! I went with Sister Denham again! I really love her so much! I'm so grateful for the people I've met on my mission! We had a great time and took an investigator, Brandon, on a church tour and it was so great! We took Grandma Pat and Michael and they were such good fellowship! 

LOVE YOU ALL! Yins have a blessed week!
Love yins, Sister Grant

ps. I think I've written my address wrong on some of the letters I've sent people (true story) so here is the right one.. :)

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
