Week 14: A Californian rollar coaster Ride‏

Hello Family & Friends!

Hope you are having a great day! Haha, heard it is still cold there... sorry about that - we definately don't have frost on our windows in the morning!!

Can you believe this will be my 100 day mark this week on Wednesday!! haha, I am not counting ... there are just page numbers in my journal.. and that is what page I am on ;) lol. already almost MAY!! wow it's flying by fast!

So this week has been a rollar-coaster of ups and downs!... We have been teaching some people and some lessons go good.. and the others..hummum, don't? lolThe Judds are doing good. Adam had to get a shirt to come to church so we have kind of been bugging him about getting one :) and FINALLY FINALLY.. we got the whole family at church... well I am not going to say 'we'.. because really, yet again when Sacrament started they weren't there.. and so I said a prayer to myself that nothing would stop the whole family from getting there.. and sure enough seconds later I turned around and all of them were coming in and sitting in the back, so I went and sat by them. [My testimony in Prayer is sure getting strenghened!!] Jan and Adam still have their baptism date scheduled for the 9th of May, and Jessica and Jacob are praying about it. So we are excited for them. Brother Teter is even coming with us now to teach them.. he's great!

We taught Darla The Plan of Salvation (and yes, I got the right house now). Haha, so I bought a magnetic board and made some Plan of Salvation cut-outs to stick on there.. haha they are really cool and it makes the lesson funner [yes that's a word] to teach! But the thing with Darla is - she had back problems and can't sit down for too long - so she won't come to church...hmmm.. excuses excuses! lol ... arn't the pues comfortable enough??

We had President Interviews on Thursday. I really love Pres. and Sis. Reeves, they are great! Pres. Reeves talked with me about how he is probably going to move E. Varney this next upcoming Monday to somewhere else and he thinks I can handle this area well enough... so ahhh, we'll see how that goes. There is still a 1% chance he will stay though??? When we get to talk to Pres. Reeves he gives us time to ask questions to him... so I asked him a question about there being "other worlds" and all of that stuff... and if there was a Savior in other plans (and not just Jesus). And he said that there was. That this has always been the Plan - but we only have one Savior for us who is Jesus Christ.... hmmm interesting... and yet uncomprehendable! Then I asked some more questions about the Plan of Salvation - Pres. Reeves seriously knows soooo much!!

So you are probably wondering about Brett Moore and the Baptism... welllllll.... I OFFICIALLY HAVE A BAPTISM NOW!! It was great and such a great day! Brett is such a strong person (E. Varney said he has never baptized someone so strong in their faith). Haha, we are thinking he is most definately going to be a Bishop or Elders quorum pres. soon!! lol

Well I've been doing great and I hope I will have more good news for next week. How have all of you been doing? hopefully well! Well I Love you all! Stay safe, keep the love, keep praying!Love
