Well ... Here Was the Week! And It Was Good!



Well this week was good! SO GOOD!!

I went on exchanges with Sister Bretz this week ❤ My last exchange. 💔

It was so good though! I learned a lot about diligence. She's so amazing! And we had a great time! We did service at the Salvation Army and when we got to the car we had the sweetest note left on our windshield. It was so great!

We had interviews this last week and that means we had some instructions from the Assistants. I loved it so much! They taught us a super simple way to teach the 3rd point in The Restoration- "Heavenly Father Reveals His Gospel In Every Dispensation." It's a lot of new things for people to learn and honestly I've struggled with it my whole mission. Luckily the Holy Ghost is who helps people understand the gospel and when I don't teach the best He is so good at helping people know its true anyway! But it was so good! I'm so grateful I can apply this to my teaching now! Basically it was like teaching and checking for clarification with simpleness. It sounds weird but it was so good! SO GRATEFUL!! I didn't have an interview with President Cleveland though, but he did talk to all of our companionships so I talked with him with Sister Pierce. He talked about charity. That man has so much charity! I want to have that much! I really love you all a lot and I hope you know that. 

Also, highlight of the week: church of course. Other highlight of the week: WE WENT TO A BAPTISM WITH ADAM AND IT WAS AT THE BLOOMFIELD HILLS YSA BRANCH!! I got to see Lucien and Winnie! And Adam got to see the temple because it was at the stake center right across from the temple!! I LOVED IT SO MUCH!! It was too much joy for me to handle! Lucien gave a talk on baptism. He did such a great job and he is doing so well and I love and miss him so much! And Winnie gave a talk on the Holy Ghost and it was perfect just like her. Wow. She's amazing. I'm going to video call her when I get home and read the Book of Mormon with her because I miss doing that. It was so great!!
And Adam went and saw the temple and then we taught him about the priesthood and temples this weekend and it was so great. He helps the ward so much already. He's giving rides and doing cookie splits with us. HE IS SO BOMB! 

It's been so good this week! It will be another good one! ❤❤

Happy early Thanksgiving! #1 I'm thankful for Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father #2 I'm thankful for the Ohio Cleveland Mission and The Michigan Detroit Mission and how President Brown and President Cleveland let me serve in them. 

I'm thankful for all of you! LOVE YINS (I'm also thankful for the word yins)!

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...

The Miracles Haven't Stopped!

Wow! What an amazing week Sister Pierce and I had! We have witnessed so many of the Lord's blessings! Tricia and Christian brought their friend Louy to church and we've started teaching him.  Christian knows the Book of Mormon is true!!!!!! I love those 3 people so much and all of their dogs! Adam came to church!! The ward LOVED him! He loved church! We taught him the Word of Wisdom and he threw away everything that would stop him from living it! He's been studying the Book of Mormon everyday and probably gets more out of his studies than I do!  We love Adam so much! (By we I mean all 7 missionaries serving in this ward!) We stand by the front doors and greet people before sacrament meeting starts every Sunday and when he walked through the church doors on Sunday, we all shouted, "ADAM!" at the same time! He's just so cool! We will probably get to meet his kids this week!!!!!  We started teaching Kelly. She's  Adam's daughter-in-la...

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...
