Called to Serve in Philly: In the Name of the Book of Mormon

Hey every one! This week was SOOOO good! Being a missionary is super great!

We went on exchanges, which was such a blast! The Sister Training Leaders are now the South Bethlehem sisters, so I got to go with Sister Jensen to South Side for a day!! I got to teach some of their investigators, including a lady named M, who I've been dying to meet. We also got Rosie and Suki started on family history! Seriously, such a fun day.

On Thursday we had Zone Training and it was fantastic! It was all about the Book of Mormon, how it can answer questions of the soul, and how vital it is to have a testimony of it. We did some awesome role plays and, you guys... THE BOOK OF MORMON IS TRUE. We are so blessed to have it. God speaks to us through it, so go read it!

We met with Bridget twice this week and she is doing so awesome! Zone Training really pumped us up and we were able to get her really excited about the Book of Mormon.

Church was phenomenal! The spirit was so strong during fast and testimony meeting. And guess what? BRIDGET CAME TO CHURCH! She was so cute and excited! She introduced herself in Sunday school by saying: "Hi, I'm Bridget and I wanna get baptized!" She's golden. Then she gave the opening prayer. It was the funniest thing, she ended the prayer "in the name of Jesus Christ and in the name of the Book of Mormon. Amen". What a sweetheart. I'm so happy to see her so excited about this incredible book. It truly is God's word and we grow closer to Him by reading it. We also had one of our members bring her cousin and his wife who aren't members. We were able to talk with them and find out that they are interested in learning more! It was so exciting. We look forward to being able to meet with them and teach them how their family can be together forever.

I love being a missionary. Heavenly Father is so aware of us. I hope you all have a wonderful week! The Book of Mormon is true. Keep smiling. :)
