Week 24 Exchanges & Lots of Fun

Hey Ya'll!!! 

Can I just say that the weather here has a Bi-polar issue. It will be 80 one day and then drop to 40 the next! Sister Kresge and I have to go outside before we get ready every morning to try and predict how cold its gonna be. We are so off sometimes, lol!  But unlike Canada (Shout out to Sister Fullmer!) Its not snowing:) 

Sister Lewis & Sister Walker

Sister Kresge and I went on exchanges this last week with the OU (Oklahoma University) sisters! Sister Lewis and I had a party in Noble while sister Williams and Kresge lived it up on campus. I think tomorrow we get to experience doing a booth on campus! I am so excited!! But Sister Lewis got to go door knocking for the first time! That was so much fun, and it made me remember when Sister Karauria

took me to my first door knock. What a memory haha:) We had success though and saw miracles!

Sister Williams

So I had to lend Sister Williams my bike this week because last Monday hers was stolen:(! and when they asked the institute to see the camera footage, they told them they are default cameras...haha yeah she wasn't too thrilled to hear that, but she got a new bike out of it!

Ok so the other day Sister Kresge and I were making lunch and she put a potato in one of those fabric potato bags and put it in the microwave. Next thing we know something was burning so we were frantically searching in the kitchen for whatever it might have been...lol it was obviously the potato. We took the bag out and a corner of it was burned and smoking really bad so we stuck it out side, not even thinking that it was windy. We went back inside and cracked the door open to let the smell out. Sister Kresge went outside and said, "Oh, its on fire!" She was so calm and collected I thought she was joking. Sure enough the whole bag was chard and on fire! We quickly set it out with water and threw it away like nothing happened. We are so lucky we didn't burn the apartment down!

"Oh, its on fire!" Sister Kresge

One of our investigators wants to get baptized but she wants to overcome all her addictions first. We are going to do the Stop smoking workshop with her starting this week, and we are all so excited!! It will even help her not drink Coffee and tea!! This workshop is so cool! It relies a lot upon the faith of the investigator, and especially their Savior Jesus Christ. With Him all things are possible. My testimony has been strengthened so much when it comes to using my Saviors Atonement. This gift we have can help us overcome any addiction. I just wish everyone in the world could understand the blessing and power it has. This is definitely one of the reasons I am on a mission:)

Zone Conference - My district

We had Zone Conference this week!!! I love ZC so much!! It just got Sister Kresge and I so pumped and motivated for a great week! We talked alot about conversion versus testimony. We all can strengthen our testimonies in the gospel, but its another thing to be fully converted to the gospel. Are we just changing our behavior for a brief moment, or are we changing our nature and becoming more converted? These are questions we have to ask ourselves daily.

This is your weekly challenge. Sorry if I have given this one already, but its so important:) What is one thing that you can give up or change to be more fully converted to the gospel. Make this change (whether it be reading the scriptures more, praying more sincerely, etc.) and strive to be better everyday. You will see Christ in your life if you will use his Atonement. 

I love you all and have an awesome week!
