Hello Family!

 

I am sorry I didnt write last week. I could have carved a stone letter in the time it was taking the internet to load. Thought about it, but shipping stone is quite pricey. Well this past few weeks have been really amazing. President Young had each of the companionships make goals and send them into him. So me and my companion spent some time thinking about what we need to do to see miracles. We set a goal to have 5 baptisms this next 6 weeks. We had names for all the baptisms and felt really good about it. Saturday we got a call that 3 of the kids we were teaching, aka 3 baptisms were not interested anymore. It was really heart breaking. But we are keeping our goal at 5, we both felt inspired to have 5 so we know Heavenly Father will make it possible.

 

So this Sunday we went to church fasting for our goals. We had Kaalyn show up that is getting baptized June 9th, Pam wasnt able to make it but she gets baptized Saturday. Kaalyn brought her little Sister Jasmine. Jasmine was really quite and wouldnt really talk to us. Then During class a guy names Jim and his roomate Craig showed up. It was cool to have 4 investigators at church. So we went to teach Kaalyn last night and at the end of the lesson I felt like I really needed to invite Jasmine to learn more about the church. It was scary cause we were just about to pray and leave but I felt like we really needed to do it. So I asked her and she went quiet, in my mind I was like oh shoot I made this awkward and she doesn't want to, But then she said "Ya I would really like to learn more" We played it cool and set up a return appointment. When we got in the car we were freaking out. I know that my testimony in fasting for miracles and really listening to the spirit has been stregnthened.

 

I saw a way cool car the other day, It was this white little car with a big cirlce on top with a bunch of camera's. IT WAS TOTALLY A GOOGLE MAPS CAR!! So it was taking pictures of all the streets here in grants pass, I was standing in front of the dentist office, so If you look up the address I will probably be in the picture. MOMENT OF FAME!!

 

So another cool thing, Yesterday was the eclipse, It was pretty amazing to watch. I dont know if it was visable in utah I would assume so.

 

Well I love you all and I hope your doing wonderful.

 

Peace and Blessings

Love Sister Rose
