Well this week has been pretty fantastic!!!
It
was finals week slash when everyone started to go home so it made it a
bit interesting but this week is going to be even more of an adventure
so that will be good! :) Christmas is this week so that's always fun!
Except it doesn't even feel like Christmas really because the work is
basically the same and it's been like 70, sometimes colder so it's just
odd!
Okay first I want to talk about Kyle!!!
WHOO He is so cool! So we had a lesson with him this week and it was
like......ASTOUNDING! I am so blown away. He is a celestial
investigator, not just a golden investigator, a celestial investigator!
He's THAT cool! In our lesson this week, he hadn't read the chapter of
the Book of Mormon we gave him and so we read it with him and it was 3
Nephi 11 and that talks about baptism and stuff so we ended up inviting
him to be baptized on Feb 6
if he knew it was true! (Well, "ended up" makes it sound like it wasn't
planned but it was planned...we prayed about it) and he said he would!
Then he literally said this (sit down before you read this): "Yeah it
just makes sense. I mean, if missionaries came over about 3-4 times and
didn't talk about baptism or ask that question then I would just wonder
what the point was." WOW! Then, oh it just gets better, later in the
lesson he was like, "I just want to get to a point where I don't need
y'all anymore." He TOTALLY gets our purpose! Also, we told him to call
us if he has any questions and he has called us a couple of times but
it's cool because whenever he asks us questions, he doesn't usually ask
us directly, he asks where he can LOOK to find the answer. He's so cool!
He even came to church yesterday and stayed the whole time and seemed
to really enjoy it! He sat by different people and branch fellowshipped
him well!!
Also, we met ANOTHER Baylee!!! This
was a referral from President Johnson (kind of). He got a call from a
girl who moved here (named Baylee) and she is a nonmember who moved here
from Idaho and she was going to take the lessons but moved and she had
been to a couple of YSA activities! She is SO cool! I love her so much!
She's so chill and just great with people and she's just awesome! I'm
excited about her!
The first Bailey and
Charlotte are home now for Christmas! We didn't get to meet with
Charlotte this week but we are hoping to possibly have a phone lesson
with her sometime this week. And Bailey we met with on Monday
and had a pretty good lesson. She is...well we aren't really sure where
she's at right now. It kind of seems as though she's really only
meeting with us for the intellectual side of it. She doesn't seem super
interested in actually coming to know that this is TRUE.
Carlos
got the priesthood yesterday!!!! It was so great! And he bought a suit
and tie for it and he looked real spiffy! Oh I'm just so excited for
him! He is doing so great!
So we went on
exchanges this week and Sister Dillon and I went to Nolansville with
sister Miller (I just LOVE her) and Sister Johnson took over the are for
a day! She did so great! And after we got back from the exchange....we
had like the greatest finding hour ever! Okay, not ever but it was just
really good because we talked to a LOT of people because they were just
all home for some reason and set up lots of return appointments and just
had really good conversations. It was super awesome!
Interviews
were this week and that was SO good! I love interviews! Except when I
got in there I just started bawling and I was like, "President! Why do
Elders get to serve longer than sisters?" And he just laughed at me haha
we have the funniest interviews! Love him! Sister Andersen wasn't able
to be there though unfortunately because she got whatever President got a
couple weeks ago or last week or whenever that was! Poor girl! I told
President that I was sad for her and he was like, "I guess she just
didn't have enough compassion on me when I was sick so she was cursed!"
Haha classic
We are excited for Christmas! It's going to be a busy day though! But fun!
Sorry
that's all I have for today! Not too much happened this week! At least
that I care to write about! I love y'all lots and I hope you have a
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Love,
Sister Myers
1-2
We found these emoji pillows that describe us! I am the weirdo and

happy haha soooo funny. if only you knew just HOW true this picture was
