shoot dang it i had the best title worked out for this email too............



........... buuuuuuuuttt now i can't remember it haha oh well! :)

another week gone by already??? SO CRAZY. it's been a full one and
time just went by SO fast i feel. Wednesday/Thursday we exchanged with
Marquette so I got to go to MICHIGAN for the first time in my life,
suuuuuper exciting, and it's like a 2 hour drive one-way to escanaba
where the meeting point was sooooooooooooooooooo we spent a lot of
time in the car haha which made for a pretty short exchange but it was
still good!! both of our thursday appointments fell through so we just
went "down to the river to pray" and talked to people down by the
fox(y) river :) which was actually pretty fun. we met some interesting
people hahah :) and it was fun to be with sister reese, she's from
washington too and she's delightful, she's brand-new but already a
pro. so fun. it's still super weird to me that i'm a sister traning
leader haha i don't think i'm doing it right? it's crazy because no
one really knows who we are or what we do so we're just making it
up........... haha. but it's fun :) friday was mission leadership
council, the first one ever that sisters have been invited to,
wooooo...... haha we just like sat there and they were like "so do you
have anything to say?" and we were like "....... nope! sounds good!"
haha but it was good. i really like the other sister training leaders
:) and apparently one of our other responsibilities is to train at the
monthly zone training meeting now, and since the UP is so far away
they don't come to us, we go to them............ so it looks like
we're heading back up to da UP this week! hahaha so funnnn :) but
actually it will be because the UP is hilarious. and the drive goes
RIGHT along the bay (bey) and it's gorgeous. love love love it. you
all are probably tired of hearing about how beautiful wisconsin is but
it is. and we got to teach jill this week! and she is lovely! she had
an lds friend in new york and they went to palmyra together and the
sacred grove and all that and she thought it was really cool and
peaceful, and her friend gave her a book of mormon that she's going to
read this week and then will she get baptized? YES she will :) :)

finding is the struggle of all time but we're still working hard and
praying for a family! this ward is so great and involved and excited
to get to help us so that's amazing :) and we're meeting lots of great
people every day. sister erickson is a champ at staying motivated...
sometimes i get tired or cranky and satan works pretty hard on
me....... BUT church was amazing (aaaaaaas per usual, gosh, Heavenly
Father really knows what He's doing with these commandments!) and one
of the sisters is relief society made a comment that I know to be true
-- she said "The Lord is working harder for me that satan works
against me." And I know that that's true! I always knew God was more
POWERFUL than satan, but for some reason I really liked that she put
it that way -- the Lord is working hard for us! I know that He is. He
loves us too much to not be :) He is pulling for us and rooting for us
and working for us, and let us all keep in mind that this is the
All-Powerful All-Loving Creator of the Universe we're talking about
here :) He who hung the stars and filled the oceans and made ALL
THINGS BEAUTIFUL..... and let us also remember that in His hands, dust
becomes stars :) (corny but true!) So I just love Him. I love Him for
His unending, never-ceasing patience with me, His love for me, the
beautiful sky and earth and all creations, and for the double rainbow
last Saturday and the thunderstorm in Wisconsin :) I just LOVE HIM and
I love what He has called me to do. His love is real, you guys. Go
team! :) :) :) :)


LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU FOREVER
