Hello! This week was pretty good!
On Tuesday, we went to MLC. We met up with the Spanish sisters and the Ashland STLs, Sister Kukahiko and I hopped in their car and Sister Richey and Sister Martinez hungout for the day. I had full intentions of napping that whole car ride, but Sister Chatwin is in Ashland so we ended up chatting the whole drive, which was so fun! I love her so much! MLC was good. Lots of random things. We are supposed to refer to the temple as the House of the Lord now. We drove back, then Sister Richey and I had a dinner with a family with some fun kids.
We walked a ton on Wednesday. We visited a bunch of people, then visited with a less engaged member. Then we had dinner with a super sweet couple. They live up on the hill in a giant house on 50 acres. They had a fire going and I could just sit at their house for hours. It was so fun!
We got to go to the House of the Lord today! I really love going there. We then went to chickfila with our district and they all came into our area to try to help us find some people to teach. We spent a lot of time tracting and visiting people. We had a fun member dinner with a sweet lady. She's fiesty and its so fun to talk to her!
I was so excited for Friday because we had so many lessons planned. 3 with less engaged members and 4 lessons with friends. Unfortunately, all 4 of our friend lessons canceled, which was so frustrating because we had found members for all of them. All of our member lessons went through though! We went to this part members house for dinner and they live up on this hill with an amazing view! We saw an amazing sunset!
Saturday was funky. We did some social media stuff. I wasn't feeling very good but we went to a lesson. We came home afterwards and I fell asleep on the floor for 2 hours. When I got up, I felt so much better. We visited with some members, then some referrals we had gotten, then home for dinner. We started playing monopoly, which has been fun!
Sunday was good! We went to church, then did some visits. We had dinner with some fun members and did some planning.
I really liked this quote from President Russell M. Nelson that I found during my study of Come Follow Me this week:
“In like manner, what will your seeking open for you? What wisdom do you lack? What do you feel an urgent need to know or understand? Follow the example of the Prophet Joseph. Find a quiet place where you can regularly go. Humble yourself before God. Pour out your heart to your Heavenly Father. Turn to Him for answers and for comfort.”
I miss you guys lots! I hope you all have an amazing
Love,
Sister O'Barr
