Hey Family!!
So, lots of cool things happened this week!! First off, I went rollerblading... in a members house... yep, that was super fun!! We were over there for FHE because she is less active, and her 8 year old son told me to put on his roller blades and he pulled me around the house... it was pretty much legit.. also, in the same house, i shot a blow dart gun.. .oh the adventures that are had in Taylor!! :)
Also, we had Stake Conference this week, and the Taylor stake covers 3 towns, so the conference was broadcast to Taylor from Heber. The broadcast wasn't working very well at the beginning, and so we were all just singing without the music from the broadcast because it was frozen. When it unfroze, it was in the middle of the opening prayer.. so there we are in a stake center FULL of people, singing acapella though the opening prayer.. it was pretty comical! I don't think that sister Thompson and I stopped laughing for quite some time!
This Saturday was so amazing!! We ended up with only 3 baptisms instead of 4, but the one guy, Ervin, who didn't get baptized on Saturday is getting baptized tomorrow night, so that's super good!! It was really cool to see the family of three get baptized!! You could just see on their faces how happy they were, and how much they felt the spirit. It was a really cool experience. Pictures should hopefully be coming soon! :)
Another family that we are working with is Joel, Suzane, and Welcome. Joel is less active, Suzane is an Investigator, and Welcome (Joel's 12 year old son) is a Recent Convert! They are such an amazing family. Suzane is getting baptized in April sometime (hopefully), right after her and Joel get married! I love them so much!! They are just the nicest people in the whole world!! We are working with Joel, trying to help him get back to church, and he is making SLOW, but steady progress. Welcome is a great example to them, he is seriously so strong in the gospel, he really is super neat! They are just a really neat family!
There is another family that just moved into the ward that just got baptized in January!! They are really cool! The mom is really neat! We have talked with her a lot this past week. Basically, both her and her husband used to make, sell, and use Meth. A lot. They also used LOTS of other drugs, and were basically drug dealers. They both have spent a lot of time in jail, but they found the gospel and now they are both great members!! They are so amazing!! They have two kids, a boy who is 7, and a girl who is 2!! They are such a neat family, and I'm so excited to keep working with them as they keep doing baptisms at the temple and prepare to get sealed in a year! Their cat just had kittens this week, and they were pretty much the cutest little kittens I've ever seen, I loved them and just wanted to take one home with us!!
Yesterday for dinner we had Corn beef and Cabbage because its St. Patrick's Day.. it was nasty.. not my favorite thing in the world... but I am learning to like vegetables much more because that all we buy on Mondays, and members always feed us vegetables! Anyway, I think that this is all I have for this week! I love you all so much!!
Love,
Sister Robbins
