Well I talked to ya'll last on Tuesday... sorry about that
bad email I sent... this week will be better.. .promise :)
Tuesday: Well after our p-day we were able to go and be with
the young women that night! We talked with them and did a question and answer
about serving missions! It was so fun! The youth here are so strong it is
amazing! :)
Wednesday: GREAT day because we were able to go to Ellis
Island! Oh I love that place and being able to serve there and help others find
their family members! It's the best! After that we were driving home and we got
a call from our mission President that one of our investigators has the
clearance to be baptized! Holy Shmoly! We were so excited! :) We weren't
expecting that! So that was fun to hear! :) After that we were able to go on exchange
with the sisters! I stayed in the area with Sister Page and we went and had
some miracles! We stopped by some potentials and we met one guy and he was so
excited! So we picked him up as a new investigator! :) Then we went to see a
Less Active Brother! He seems super great! It was a good little lesson with him!
:)
Thursday: We did our little exchange evals and then we
exchanged back and then Sister Coulam and I had a night of weekly planning and
so that was good! :)
Friday: We had a great day here in our area! We were able to
teach our baptismal candidate in the morning and that was good! He just had a
lot of questions but he is still progressing! Then we met with another Less
Active who hasn't been to church in forever but she was super nice so that was
fun! :) After we went on exchange and I went to Paterson to be with Sister
Ivie! We contacted a lot of people... but it was all in Spanish so I don't
really know what was going on haha but it was fun to be with her :)
Saturday: We played soccer in the morning! I think that
should be my new sport... just sayin! Then we were able to go and study then
exchange back! So then in our area we were able to go to Lincoln Park days to
see if we could contact some people... no luck... :/ but it was good to get
out! Then we went to stop by a Less Active and she let us in! That was super
good! :) She is a sweetheart! Then we were able to go and see the one who was
cleared for baptism! He and his wife took us to a Chinese Buffet! He was so
excited to get baptized and he just had so many questions! :) After that we ran
to the Womens General Conf and that was soo good! We were a little late but I
love the Spirit there! :) My new goal: memorize the Living Christ! :)
Sunday: Was a great day! The less active we met earlier came
to church for the first time in YEARS! It was so cool:)Our baptismal candidate
was there and so was the man who is able to be baptized! We had a great Ward
Conference! I saw some people that were from my old wards who are in the stake
and it is just amazing the amount of love I have for the members here.. I am
sure going to miss them all! After church we actually went to a Presbyterian
church... haha The man who came back to church this week and his wife and
daughter put on a play on there... so we went to watch it! They were so excited
we were there and it was pretty interesting... And that was really our day
:)
This morning though... Sister Coulam fell down the stairs
and got a black eye... that pretty much made my day! hahahha Love her :) and
she laughed about it! :)
But I am so grateful to be able to serve here… this week I
understood the importance of praying for miracles! I have prayed for so long
for an amazing miracle to happen with our investigator who wanted to be
baptized! That somehow some way I'd be able to witness his baptism and look at
this! :) I am so excited for him and to be able to have his family united :) I
know that God hears and answers prayers and that miracles do happen! :) I love
you all and have a good week!
Sister Dahl!
