The Weekly Sunshine Update
Family!
Sorry some of these pictures are from the days before Sister Pelfrey but I think they need to be shared still. Also, the picture of the three of us with a girl in the middle is Megan an investigator we have been teaching. She is already on Helaman and prays every single day now! She went from being agnostic so realizing that God exists and that she feels so much better when she reads the Book of Mormon. I've been with her since the beginning but she's moving to Connecticut (home for her) and will possibly be stopping by Cedar on her road trip! I hope you all get to meet her! She has impacted my life and it was a blessing to be a part of her to teach her who she really is. This last week we got to meet ELDER BALLARD! He came to San Diego to see his two daughters (one of them being my mission president's wife Sister Clayton) and he requested to see all the missionaries! He brought together all the Bishops, Ward Mission Leaders, and missionaries together in the same room and just laid it out as it is. It was so cool and the work is going to pick up so much in our area because of us all being on the same page now. He wants us to break down the walls that separate the missionaries and the ward from working together. We should be actively a part of the work that goes on in both and there should be no separation between the two. He told us that all our answers can be solved in our ward council and to call down the powers of Heaven to God's work in our areas. We have seen the miracles come already. We taught a man for the first time yesterday named Mohammad and he has already committed to baptism. We are finding those that the Lord has prepared to be taught. Are teaching pool is picking up and we are lots more successful with the ward. I am in love with this ward and they finally trust us with their friends. One such member brought a friend to church named Melissa and she's going to get baptized soon as well. Pray for them and for the La Jolla Singles. It is such an amazing place to serve. I see the temple and the beach every single day. Yeah, let’s be honest I'm pretty spoiled on my mission as well. GRANDMA AND GRANDPA! Thank you again for the letter this week and the ten dollars. You pay for me to do laundry every week and it's a huge blessing!!! I love you all so much and have been thinking about you all a lot.
Love,
