Have I ever mentioned how much I HATE being sick?
Well.... now you know. This week has been a little
slow, because I'm trying to shake off another cold, but we worked as hard as we
could! (Well, as hard as I could, to my dismay. I'm afraid I'm a
wee bit of a workaholic when I get working.)
Anyways, Karisma. So much progression, and yet so
much.... frustration?! I dunno. Anyways, so we're getting her all
prepped for her baptism, so we're having lessons with her twice a week,
right? Well, lesson number 1 this week was the 10 commandments.
Quick, simple, to the point, yeah? She enjoyed that. Then we taught
her about the Law of Chastity, which was also good. We talked about the
baptismal questions (which she did really good on), and she informed us that
she got through the 2nd chapter or First Nephi! Wahoo! And then the
entire family came for the Ward Christmas Party! Brother Wood had to play
for the party, and he is AMAZING!!!!
But after such an awesome week.....
Karisma didn't show up for church. :(
Oh well, hopefully next week, yeah? :)
We also got to teach Carol again this week. This time,
we taught about the Plan of Salvation. She actually really likes the idea
of the Kingdoms of Glory! She also appreciates how we use both the Bible
and the Book of Mormon to teach. She still isn't praying about what we
teach her though. :( Hopefully soon. At least she doesn't
disbelieve us. But the Spirit is really strong. I love teaching
her. :)
Um... yeah. That's really all of the exciting news
this week. There's not much to report. Tomorrow is Zone Conference,
which we're singing at (again), so that's been taking up a lot of our time
too.
Oh, and so y'all know.... my official one-year mark is THIS
THURSDAY!!!!!!!! EEEEEKKKKK!!!! I can't believe I've been out for a
whole year!!!! How exciting is that?!?!?! I'm so grateful
that I've been able to stay out so long, and for all the experiences I have had
thus far. And I can't wait to see what the next 6 1/2 months bring. :)
(Yes, only 6 1/2 more months!!! how crazy is that?!)
I love y'all, and I hope you're enjoying your Christmas
season!!! Keep the Faith strong!!!
Love,
Sister Empey
