Good morning afternoon or evening! whenever you read this hahah.
This week has been pretty crazy and fun! Lots going on!
Monday we had dinner with members who did residency in the University of Iowa and they we within walking distance of the Coralville mall!!! WHAT!? That's right where my dad was when he was in Iowa!! We talked about things down there and had a ton " remember this?" "Oh yeah!!" Remember this? Oh yeah! Hahah so that was super fun!
Tuesday we went to zone conference in a different city and helped the fleet coordinator inspect all the vehicles in that zone and that was fun! Also, Tuesday we were going to have a meeting with Deliah, the lady who was supposed to be baptized TODAY and she was offended by something's that were said at church and she felt uncomfortable about it all so she said "I didn't want to be baptized" ..... What...... Luckily later she called and explained and said she still knows the church is true but just needs some space. PHEW so we are kind of waiting on her. Hopefully she will be at church!! That experience taught us about true success. From PMG: True success is found not in achieving goals alone but in the service you render and in the progress of others.
Wednesday we had another zone conference to inspect the cars. Then later in the evening we went to a the family history consultants house and asked him to teach us about family history because we were sitting in pep boys and got to talking to some guy and family history got brought up. We pulled up family search on our iPads and I was like.... Uuhh... Idk what I'm doing.... Haha #embarassing so we've got to learn that so it doesn't happen again.
Thursday was really cool. So in my personal study I read a scripture I had no idea it even existed. It was in Doctrine and Covenants 131 and it says
7 There is no such thing as immaterial matter. All spirit is matter, but it is more fine or pure, and can only be discerned by purer eyes;
8 We cannot see it; but when our bodies are purified we shall see that it is all matter.
And we met an Atheist as we were tracting and I felt impressed to share that. We have an appointment to meet with him again about what that actually means and how he can feel it. Elder Wallace brought up hope and I felt impressed to go to Moroni 7:41 and I didn't know what it even said and I went to it and it says
41 And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise.
So that was just a spiritual experience. Plain and simple. It was amazing.
And then last night we vacuumed 30 live wasps with our vacuum. Long story. All I gotta say is Texas is rubbin off. Hahaha
Well I love you all and I know that the Lord loves all his children. I hope that you all may each chose to feel that love because it is there and will always be there. Have the greatest week ever!

Literally yesterday I rode on the place between the trailer and truck while holding onto the trailer and quoted Pirates of the Caribbean, "Alas my children, this is the day to remember as the day that you almost caught.. Captain Jack Sparrow!! And I totally thought of boating how me and Britney and Tyler would say that! Haha Elder Judy
