First
piece of good news... We found out that ELDER JEFFREY R. HOLLAND from
the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles is visiting our mission!!! He is
coming in May to speak to all of us missionaries! WOOHOO!!! I can't
wait! For those of you who don't know who Elder Holland is, here's a
highlight from his most recent General Conference address about
depression. He's the BEST!
One
highlight from this week was the amazing lesson we had with our
investigator, Henry! We taught him at a skate park. It was the greatest
thing. We literally sat on top of the half-pipe and had a gospel
discussion. Believe it or not, the Spirit was so strong! He committed
himself to go to church every week and to read and pray every day! He
also wants to get baptized! He is SO cool!
On Saturday, we
had a dinner with the women at church before watching the General
Women's Meeting at the church. The theme was uniting women worldwide, so
there were globes EVERYWHERE! I was in Geography-major heaven!
The sister on the far right is Sister Pyper, my beautiful new companion!
Before
Sister Carlson left, we made a rainbow cake from a mix my mom had sent
me. It went... okay... Haha here's a picture of the end result.
NAILED IT.
Anywho,
I hope you all are having the best week ever. I probably say that all
the time, but I mean it! All of you are near and dear to my heart and I
thank you so much for your support!
<3 Sister Christiansen
