December 16, 2013 FAMILY!!!!! <3 How are you?! I hope everyone is doing well!!!! This week has been CRAZY!!!!!! Also AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! We have a baptism next Sunday!!! Super stoked, it's S.S. and she is doing so well! She is progressing a lot and we have seen many things fall right in place! We are trying to pray more, and have found that many miracles have come from it! :) It's really amazing! So! Monday! It was wayyy fun! We went to the Merlion for my greenie! *WHO ROCKS* she is the best! and then we had an appointment with the C. family! Which was wayyy good… being with them really was uplifting! The spirit was so strong in our lesson! We heart attacked a family in our ward, and they caught us as we were running away! hahah but they appreciated it so much! You could tell it meant a lot! I love when we are able to help people feel loved!!!!!!!!! We also met with S. and had our first recent convert lesson! It was really great! you can really tell that she has a whole new light about her! She gave me the sweetest Christmas card!!!!!!!!! It was in broken English and so sweet! :) Also! WE MET WITH F.!!!!!!! I’m so excited about it! She was having a really hard time, but has been praying and reading the BOM and knows that when she does, it brings her comfort! SHE IS GOLDEN!!!! And we love her so much! Next step is to get her to church! This time of year everyone is going on holiday to Malaysia, the Philippines, or China!!!! haha so it's hard to meet with people sometimes!!! But we read Alma 32 with her, and she felt the spirit and was so excited!!! I love her a lot! ALSO! When we met with S.S, we have been teaching her the commandments, it’s gone really, really well!!!!!! She just accepts it, and has a strong testimony of how they can help in her life! And she still comes to church even after her grandma told her she didn't want her to!!!! ROCKIN!!!!! We met with AC! Convinced her to come to church next week, for God, and so we pray that she will come on Sunday!!! She is the best as ever! Love her a lot!!! We went to visit Sister J! I gave her your love, and she loves you guys!!! We met with her daughter N. (who I had a really amazing talk with) and her two sons, R and I (cutest little boys I have ever met!!!) anyway! The daughter is so amazing! And they invited us to a Christmas party on Christmas Eve!!!!! WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!!!! Missionary work is really moving along!!! :) We went to the T. Families home where we watched the New Testament video, and had a very spiritual thought!!! IT WAS SO COOL!!!!!!!!! The spirit was very tangible there! We had our ward Christmas party!!! It was so fun! Then we taught Sha Sha! Genesis followed us and we taught the law of chastity! (All I could think of was how dad had that pic with the bunny) anyway! It was really nerve racking but it was amazing! She really was able to feel peace from being able to keep Gods Commandments! Then church!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We met a super awesome lady on the MRT and she was like, I love that you guys are out here as missionaries!!!!!! SO! We hope to meet with her and teach her about what makes our church different!!!! And we pray that it goes well, her name is Y. :) we also had a walk in at church a lady from Mongolia with her 2 year old daughter who didn't speak English, but we had fun anyway!!!! haha she and I made faces at each other! It was fun :) and the mom wants to meet with us next Sunday!!!!!!!!!!! We are so excited!!!! Another miracle!!! We were invited to the N. family’s home for dinner where they had 2 nonmember families, less active and active families!!!! It was awesome to just get to know all of them, share a spiritual message, and help them to really bring missionary work together!!!!!! :) WHOOT!!! Miracles galore this week! It has been really good and we have thought of a lot of things to do to help get the ward more involved. I am just really excited to work with Sister Proffit and build up this area!!!!! YAYA! Anyway!!! I love you all and I pray for you often!!!!! Keep on keeping on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love, Sister Waldvogel O.W.L.E
