Hello lovely friends and family! This week has been great!
We had zone conference this week, which means that all the missionaries in all of Tacoma and Lakewood got together for trainings and a devotional. And guess who got to give one of the trainings...
Me! And Sister Bolos:
And of course, zone conference always means good food:
This week has also been a great week for finding. We have been working really hard and doing our best to talk to everyone we see, and the payoffs are pretty obvious! Just last night we found 2 new investigators who are both really solid and want to get baptized. I think it has something to do with the Christmas season. Lots of people seem more inclined to talk about Jesus when His name and his picture are everywhere. What a great time of year!
Speaking of Christmas, we took a Christmas card picture, and a little girl photo bombed it:
Here's the good one:
I have been thinking a lot about faith recently. One of my favorite chapters in the Book of Mormon is Ether 12, which you can read here:
The principle of faith is amazing. It is how we know of things that are true when we cannot see them. Faith is everything from knowing that the sun will rise again after it has set for the night, to knowing that the Son of God rose again after he had been dead for 3 days, to knowing that because He is risen, we can be cleansed from our sins and find joy in our lives.
I love you all! Merry Christmas!
Love,
Sister Lemon
