To start off....Monday
night we taught someone I met on facebook. SOLID. Andy is the coolest
guy ever! He has tons of questions and is so willing to read and to
learn! He is working a lot and that stinks but he ALWAYS makes time to
read the Book of Mormon! He was already to 1 Nephi 17 a week later when
we met with him! Andy...he is the GREATEST!
Alrighty I cannot go any farther without explaining
Rachel! So as you know she came to church and was looking for us, the
missionaries, and MY GOODNESS. To sum up Rachel in one word she is
amazing. She met with us and told us that she had already read through
gospel principle and she had quit drinking coffee, tea, alcohol, and got
rid of all her immodest clothes! She is so prepared! She is leaving
this weekend to the UP and is going to pray about a date to be baptized!
But wow....Rachel is thee most amazing person I have ever met. So happy
to have been able to experience this miracle. Heavenly Father is so
merciful! I could go on forever and ever...I love Rachel. She is this
tiny, beautiful, sweet person! Her aunt is a member in the grand rapids
ward and she just said she saw this light in her and wanted it for
herself and her future family! #
I am also teaching this guy named Trevor on
facebook! and he goes to tons of different presentations on how to get
people out of cults and to save them. So he is currently trying to save
me. While I am trying to convince him that this is not, in fact, a cult.
I finally gave up and sent this huge message about how I know Heavenly
Father loves me and that I am not following some fantasy. I know exactly
why I gave up eighteen months to devote all my time and attention to
spread this. Not because so feel good fantasy but because I know without
a doubt this church is true. He then said thank you for your testimony
and was a little bit more civil after that. I was bold. It scares me to
be bold...but it always works. As long as it is bold and loving.
Also MLC this week! GOTTA LOVE IT! I got to see
Sister Carter! Man, I love that girl! Hopefully we can convince
President Jacobsen that we NEED to be together. I love MLC!
Well
mi familia...seems like a lot has been going on back at home. Trying
not to get bummed about it but Heavenly Father always reassures me that I
am where I am needed. And that is important. I want you all to know
that I know that Heavenly Father loves each one of us and ALWAYS knows
what is best.
MUCH MICHIGAN LOVE, Sister Oswald!
random haps:
1. We hauled hay on Friday! It was so much fun!
2.We
met this guy from Saudi Arabia and he was planning his wedding! We then
asked him when he was getting married and he said oh well hopefully six
months...whenever I find a women. Silence. Then Sister Pyper quietly
says...you are planning your wedding....without a wife? Tuens out his
parents in Saudi Arabia are trying to find him a suitable companion.
Mom, Dad....Hope you are looking.
3.After MLC we all go to the office to get supplies and say hi to
all the office missionaries and Elder Tuttle and I were grabbing some
Book of Mormons and there were all these different CRAZY languages and
so we picked out the hardest langauges and we are both going to pray
really hard to find a person who speaks that langauge. Anyone know who
speaks Pohmpenian?
4. So Dad, you know how you take us on our first date and talk
about how we should not give our pearls away and then give us a pearl
necklace. Well we used that for our lesson this week with Leanna! We
talked about how precious we are to our Heavenly Father and then read a
scripture and gave her a little pearl necklace. Just thought I should
let you know...I use a lot of your..."lectures" ;) Walk the line....yep
used that a lot.
