First Tuesday E-Mail!

On Sunday we had sister Susan Tanner (former YW pres.) talk to us. It was amazing and so very uplifting. She talked a lot about the history of relief society and our heritage. That night for fireside we an amazing fireside about choosing what is right because angels are silent notes taking of every action. We also need to lay down our weapons of rebellion and do everything we can so that the spirit can be with us. Without the spirit we cannot teach and that is our purpose. Invite others to come unto Christ.
My companions name is Sister Harding. We have so much in common. She is a very sweet girl and this week has been a good week in the fact that we are learning how to teach with each other. We currently have two progressing investigators ( teachers acting like someone they taught on their mission) and one investigator from the TRC.(Teaching resource center) It is amazing how much love you feel for these people, even if they are pretending to be someone else. One of our investigators, Bob, is having a really hard time in his family life. ( in short, he is separated from his wife who is catholic and he grew up Jewish. They have two kids) He doesn't know if there is a God or anyone that cares because of all the bad things that have happened in his life. We had the opportunity to testify to him that we know that there is a loving heavenly father that has set in place a perfect plan for us and that if he goes to him in prayer willing to act on the promptings of the spirit he will get an answer. We will see what happens when we follow up this week.
The sisters here dress really cute. ill have to send you pictures mom of there skirts. lots of color, like the down east skirts. i am already sick of my clothes..of course! haha. We are going to print out some pictures we have taken and send them home hopefully this week so you can see my district, companion and such. Please send cute skirts. haha.

Sister Urie
