September 12, 2017

Ugh I just love getting emails and updates! sorry mine are not as long anymore, but I try to write the most meaningful things in them. That does sound like a dream, trey walking by and saying hi grandma haha that is just too perfect to be true! I am excited for your next projects! I just admire that so much about you, you are such a hard worker! I do play the piano for church, johnny low plays for sacrament meeting though which is nice haha. Jordan low told me about thae fires, that is so scary. I wish I could give you some of our rain! It rains most days of the week here but I love rain so I won't complain, especially when it is needed so badly in some places.
 The activity day girls are doing well haha I wish there was someone in our ward who had a big yeti van. We baked cupcakes with Dakota and Keegan and the YW lily amber and achol, for the potkuck and talent show we had saturday night. It was district conference for newfoundland this weekend so saturday there was a session from 4:30 to 6 and then we had the potluck and talent show after wards! The turn out was so great, sister fernandez and I were so happy! There was about 20 nonmembers there! Everyone's talents were so good and the elders and sister fernandez and I did that thing where you draw a face on your chin haha and just did I little skit about missionaries it was pretty funny, the yw were dying. So with conference we were on skype with cornerbrook and gander, and all of the members in newfoundland just went to the building that they were closest to. The session on sunday was really good, there was a focus on the Book of Mormon. After some talks President Pratt (he was in cornerbrook) called three people up to bear their testimonies :) one of them was me haha. I knew I was going to get called because I had that same feeling in my stomach that I did when I was called to give a talk in the MTC. It was a little nerve wracking but I love bearing my testimony. in the talk before the testimonies the speaker said "I'd like to talk about the piece of our religion, the book of mormon" In my head I heard "piece" but in my heart I heart "peace". There's a reason we are pleaded with to study from the book of mormon everyday. And if you're not I am pleading with you to start haha. Pray to know not just if it's true but to know if it's the word of God. I just love the Book of Mormon. I love the people that are in it, I love the people that wrote it, I love the people that preserved it, I love the people that brought it forth, I love God for intending it for US! READ IT! Not just so that you will be blessed but so that you can bless everyone around to too:)
I love you all and I miss you all<3
love sister wood
