...
started out a little rough though. for some reason i vomited at 3am
monday night. i think its been maybe 7 years since ive done that. boo i
broke my streak. anyways TMI probably right...
well the ward seemed to be over joyed we are staying
AGAIN. brother campbell joked with us maybe they will just request our
records and just make if official, haha.
the
burkes (our ward mission leader and his family) took us out to dinner as
a final goodbye but we ended up staying, haha but i was great to spend
more time with their family. they are one of those families you want to
become in 19 years.
Wednesday was Toms Bday, we celebrated that evening
at the pishos' with banners, cards, cheesecake, and gifts. it was a
wonderful evening and full of lots of joy. that ole man is 79, but still
is just a boy at heart.
im realizing im getting rusty at some missionary
things, havent done them in a while. blah i have so much i need to
perfect. and then you just have to keep it up or else it all goes away
:(
tom had his baptism interview
the
byutv food nanny came! shes so great. never seen her show but loved her
in person. it was a neat missionary opportunity that the stake was
trying to involve the community with, lots of people brought their
friends. also her book sounds fantastic. especially for her bread
recipes. it may be going on a christmas list.
we added a new investigator this week who is
philipino. wish i had the great philipina ladies from stockton ward to
help fellowship her. shes a sweet pea who would love to learn and study
with us. it looks promising :]
we met damien's father... pray for us. he didnt come
across super supportive and we dont want to cause contention in the
family especially with damien's circumstances.
and of course of week was finished off by a beautiful baptism that i
cried through. sister langi and i both got to bare testimony, share some
of our experiences teaching tommy, and perform a musical number.
president and sister lewis even joined us along with many friends of tom
and bonnie.
love,
sister oliphant
