Baptisms This Week!

Mi Familia,

 

Yes, I'm starting to speak some form of Spanish since Sister Thompson speaks it ALL the time, haha! :) 

We did see some really cool miracles at the end of the week!! We've been working with a woman who is less active named Kristyn McNeil. She is really cool. She is starting to go back to church with her parents! She is engaged to this man named John. John is a great guy, and super fun. He is not a member, nor has he ever accepted a Book of Mormon or been interested. A few days ago we got a text from Kristyn saying that John is interested in reading the Book of Mormon, and has been reading one left for him!! It was probably the best text I've ever received!! It was such a miracle!! Also, on Saturday we have FOUR baptisms!!! I'm SO excited, I can hardly wait!!! It is going to be the best day ever, it really is! I can assure you that your prayers have been heard and answered. Our Investigators are thriving!!

I did get the package, and I loved it so much!! Thank you so much for all you sent, you know me so well!! So, to answer some of your questions... Yes, we got to do a session at the Provo Temple and I've since done one in the Snowflake Temple!! I love the Snowflake Temple, I'm going to get married there, haha! :) 

Our Laundry is at home, and let me tell you, it is SUCH a blessing!! 

As for driving, Sister Thompson drove at first but now I'm the driver :) We have a REALLY nice car. It is a 2014, and its super nice. 

As for my hair, I'm sure going to try to grow it out for 18 months, though I'm not sure that I will last!! We will have to last together! :) 

And don't worry about Journal stuff, I write in it almost daily!! :) We shop at a dollar store in Taylor, as well as at a store called Bashes. Its not as big as Wal-Mart, but it suffices :) There is a Wal-Mart about 30 minutes away in Show Low, but we need a member to drive us there and we haven't needed to go yet! And pictures, I'm sending about 16 home this week, so hopefully you will be getting those within a few days :) 

The only thing we've really cooked is Artichokes (Sister Thompson LOVES them...), and Tacos, we get fed A LOT! I love the tablet you sent, and the yellow paper, it makes me happy!! :) Also, the Phoenix Temple dedication is going to be in October so hopefully I will be able to get to that as well!!

Anyway, hopefully this week will be more normal, and more exciting things will happen!! I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for this amazing area, and these amazing people of
Taylor!! Sorry its so short this week!! I love you all!!

Love,

 

Sister Robbins

Here is an excerpt from a message from Sister Thompson, Kathryn's companion:

Sister Robbins and I had a CRAZY day today! I'm sure she will tell you all about it next p day! She is such an awesome companion! She makes me laugh and she is a quick learner! Sometimes a little sassy, but so am I she might have learned that from me! 

She is just wonderful and I feel so lucky that I get to train her! We have a lot of fun together and are waiting to have a "normal" week because things just keep getting weirder! I learn SO much from her every time we do companionship study she is just wonderful! I'm so glad that she decided to come on a mission! 

We have 4 baptisms coming up this weekend and I love watching her excitement as she shares her testimony with all of our investigators. In the mission when we are trainers we are also called their "moms" I could never compare to the real thing but I'm so proud of the consecrated missionary she is becoming. She loves the gospel and she loves this work. I am truly so blessed to be serving with your daughter!

Love you guys keep supporting her!
