This week was all around awesome!!!! Funny for the week: B.....
walked into L....'s apartment with both her niece and her nephew.
They're about 5yrs old and they both sat down on this Avengers chair
(She was in his lap). He looked at us with a big smile "This is My
cousin, She's also my girlfriend." We looked at them smiling awkwardly
and L.... whispered "Welcome to Arkansas" We BUSTED up!!!! B..... and us
were all laughing... the kids didn't get the joke but they laughed to.
:D Anyways...
We met with a new Family who is SOLID!!!! And we are super
excited to get to teach them. We also went to Specialized Training
aaaaaaaand Drrrrrrrrruuuuuuummmmm Rooooooooolllll WE'RE REALLY GETTING
IPADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!! They showed us one and
described a program that one of the Elders in our mission had written
for it. We're getting them before June, but they're finding out when
they are specifically coming this week. YAY!!! Also we met with that
couple that was struggling and were able to pull them out of the dark
place by answering all their questions and pulling up Mormon.org and
reading the FAQ's with them and watching some Mormon messages on lds.org,
it's amazing how powerful our resources are now a day's :D I love this
Gospel!!! Not just for the nifty tools, but because of it's
perfectness... of Christ's infinite nature... and how much this Gospel
has blessed my life.
Sunday we had a bit of a scare... which brings us to my Subject
line. We were in a lesson with a lady that was really struggling... not
wanting to go on any longer... or anything... It began to rain and then
the Tornado Siren's went off. We all jumped to our feet and looked
outside... it was raining but not too hard... But we helped her get her
little boy in a coat and we ran out the door to go to the safe house.
Sister Broach and I ran to the car and drove to the apartment (down the
street) and grabbed my 72 hour kit, and I grabbed some pictures, and we
ran outside. The Sky was BLACK!!!! And boy was it pouring..... we ran to
the car and drove back down the street to the safe house/ nursing home.
We went in, and in the two feet we were out we were soaked to the
core... But it was all okay. We stayed put where we were and made the
calls necessary. And were just as safe as could be. The main storm
passed and we (Leann, Elders, and Us) went back to Leann's apartments.
We were told to stay inside the rest of the night so we played cards to
pass the time and ate... and watched it rain and rain and rain. The
storm never got too bad, but the best part of the whole night... was
just knowing in my heart that I had nothing to worry about. My
daddy Harold had taken care of everything in the 72 hour kit, and I had
just partaken of the Sacrament, and I just felt this overwhelming peace
knowing that no matter what happened that it was going to work out. I'm
so grateful for this Gospel, for Christ's Atonement that made that peace
possible.
"I know that my Redeemer lives, what comfort this sweet sentence
gives. He Lives." I leave my testimony of this wonderful song that
brought me peace when the possibility of death confronted me... I still
knew, and I do know that no matter what else happens "I know that my
Redeemer lives" and that is enough :D
Love Y'all, Danville Rocks. Transfers are next week and I'm still
clueless as to what's happening... I hope all is well with y'all. Talk
to you soon!!! Have a blessed week!!!
