Umm woah
First of all Lauren ex-groves! you need to write me with every detail of everything! Love sis Milne
OK! i have a new companion!! Her name is sis Krebbs she has been out for 6 weeks. she has been doing missionary work for a total of 2 weeks, her companion had a concussion... BUT she is with me now and i get to finish training her! She is 21, has a bachelors degree in social work, she has a missionary named scott, he is a year younger than she is and they are going to get married! they both know it! i get to hear ALL about it! she LOVES her dog! like obsesively haha she has problems with her eyes i cant remember what its called but one of them doesn't move side to side... so i sometimes think of Sid from ice age... hahah she is super sweet! i have been PRAYING intently to be able to love her! while she was still with her comp that was sick, she came out with us for a couple days and i about lost it... and now she is my companion! The Lord has a real sense of humor! Sister Garten is now in the singles ward, training sister west (my grandaughter) they dont have an apt yet so were all living together! and it really really good! can we all live together forever!! not even playin! sis G is hitting a rough patch and i feel real bad, but im greatful that im there to help her! im the oldest missionary in the apt! Weird!! Sis Krebbs, she was in the band in high school, she plays the flute and picalo? i dont know how to really say it or spell it. thats really awkward!! ok i have to tell you something really really awkward! she has pictures of her and scot together!! super cute and then it gets awkward! KISSING PICTURES!!!!!! ahhhhhh Close you EYEBALLS!! Look away!! hahahahaha Oh My!! so i have been working on loving her. if i can love her with every fiber in my being, i think i can have the patients to endure hahaha this is going to be really fun ok but I LOVE teaching with her!!! like not even playin! Love teaching with her and being a missionary with her! I love it! I love her! she is so good at teaching and leaning on me as i lean on her!!!soooo goooood!! but tender mercy from the Lord. we can teach together! I do miss sis G. but this is good for her. she will grow and learn so much about why i did things the way i did it! i told her that i faked it most of the time hahaha waat!!
Ok this week!!! whaat?? i have a hard time remembering anything but Denis. Denis Peters is progressing SO MUCH!!! we had a lesson with sister pitts and him!! soo goooooood! like oh my the spirit was there. and he said that he is starting to believe! he is starting to understand!! and then we went over again last night. and we were just going to read with him. have i told ya'll about denis? well we flippen love him! we can see him in white ;) ahh! but last night before we went into his lesson we prayed. i said it and for some reason i prayed that he would open up to us! and so during the lesson. oh my its always a fun lesson! haha we checked up on the law of chasity and he was like " WHAT!! I told You i was keeping it!!" haha i said I know!! BUT we will always ask!!! and then we checked up on the word of wisdom! and he likes coffee so we talked about that for a minute. i said. you know what you could use instead of coffee in the mornings? he said. DONT You Say the Book of Mormon! dont say it!! hahah i laughed and said. No silly but that is a really good idea! hot chocolate. hahaha its like we knew each other before this life! so while sis krebs was talking i was looking for a chapter to pull out to read with him. i thought about the baptism covanants in mosiah 18 so im like YEAH!! so we all flipped there and i tried to give a back ground on the story.. (confession. i had NO idea what the story was... so i just said alma. prophet. teaching.... haha) we also told him that while we were reading this to liken unto himself! try to relate! so we read the first few verses. then he was lost. and i realized the story! oops so i stopped and me and sis krebs explained the story. hahaha good thing Denis feels the spirit other wise this would have been bad~!!! BUT it was the story of alma. one of the servants of King Noah with Abinadi!! so we read the chapter. and asked him what he thought! he said it was good. Ok sis milne fun fact. for some reason i make up a ton of analogies! and i tried to do one... it wasn't working it was like something with standing up for what was right. But then a light bulb went on! he said. ok im ganna tell you something. that like no one knows. and you cant tell. so he waited till everyone left the room and he looked around to see who was there and he told us this insane story. it had to deal with him, the military and his mom who has cancer. i cant tell you. im sorry!! But HOLY FETCH!! WERE TEACHING A MODERN DAY ALMA!!!!!!!!! not even playin!! after he told us this. we were like. woah. i didnt know how to act! i wanted to hug him and tell him how brave he was and how incredible that was!! we did... minus hugging him. cuz we cant do that! BUT! like Holy Crap!! incredible! absolutely incredible! just like alma he stood up for what he believed. and like alma. he ran away and hid! so he related to alma. yes we can say he likened the scriptures unto himself! he still wont pray about BoM until he reads the whole thing hahah we're cool with it! he just needs to read faster! we want to be here when he gets baptized :) but he is starting to believe and change. he is changing in front of our eyes!! WOOOOO oh my we love denis!! he knows it. and he just needs to feel Gods love! another cool thing he said was about why he likes to learn about religions. so he took a world religions class in college. and he learned sooo much about religions! but the reason why is because he feels like he owes it to God. God saved his life. just like Alma, the Lord kept him safe and watched over him so that King Noah wouldn't find him! We're teaching a real life Alma. its incredible!! i think i sent pictures of him home to yall! so thats our alma :) but oh my gosh! so amazing! another funny thing that we do. ok its just with me and him... it needs to stop. but if i ask him to pray he says no! hahaha like in the first few lessons we'd ask him to pray he said. No. so we're like if we pray will you pray and He said. NO. and then we asked him if he'd pray about the BoM. (all at different times) and he pointed to the BoM and said NO! hahaha he was nice and we got him to pray. but its like only when i ask he thinks its funny to say no. so sis Krebs always asks him to pray hahaha and he does. He says beautiful prayers! gator prayers are so beautiful!!
Im in love with tira Bacon still!!! and we're going to start teaching her little sister hannah who is 10. i also sent home a pic of her. the little asian girl in church. we drew on the chalk board together!!! hahaha Our funny neighbors are back :) Tom and John haha the twins!!! No they are not the vandenberghes... sorry!! hahaha but such a fun week! i feel like im growning! im just ganna pray real hard to keep this feelign the WHOLE TRANSFER!!! we're trying to work through the members more. I am real good at showing people love... so i need to figure out how to use that love... this is tough!! But oh my gosh! such a good week! Good everything!!!!!!! im nervous for the fall... its coming, a bad day is coming. i know it is. i just dont want it to.. ahhh!! hahaha Im getting fat! and some of my skirts dont zip up all the way... really really awkawrd!! haha dont tell anyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahaha ok ok!
