Best week ever!

Allyson with Sister Fowler - a missionary that was in her MTC district.

Well this week was so great! We were so busy and that is always great in missionary work! We are trying to get 3 people to baptism right now! Crystal, Pamela, and Beth! They are all doing very well! They all want to be baptized for the right reasons, it is just getting them there that is the problem! I think the hardest thing for all of them is coming to church right we were planning on 5 investigators coming to church yesterday and none of them showed up. I don't let it get to me as much as I used to anymore. It is just sad to see the people we teach not want to keep their commitments. But hey, they've got to want it! But don't think my week was sad because it was so wonderful! 

Oh and Sunday we had a broadcast! That broadcast was wonderful! We had Elder Neil L Anderson and Robert D Hales speak! Those two are some of my favorites. They talked a lot about family relationships and being a witness to everyone you meet of Jesus Christ! Jesus Christ is truly the center of everything I do and everything the church is about! I loved the scripture he shared! Doctrine and Covenants 45:9 "to be a light to the world, and to be a standard for my people". Wow, we can be a light to everyone around us! We can bring them the happiness that we have just by being their friend and inviting them to church and other activities!

We had a youth fireside that we went to this week! It was so great and one of the speakers talked about the atonement and how is intertwined with families! People come and go in our lives but our family does not! They stay! We are always there and we all love each other even though sometimes we fight. If you can imagine that love multiplied by infinity! That is how much love Christ has for us! Wow, almost unimaginable for us! That is what the atonement is - UNIMAGINABLE LOVE!

Okay now funny story of the week! So we were driving to Moorseville this week! Actually it was Saturday! Anyways I was driving and a construction crew cut a huge hole in the road and it was raining a lot on Saturday.... So there are not many warning signs for this hole in the road. We hit it and you know how I said it was raining. Well the hole is filled with dirt. You know what rain does to dirt right. So we hit this hole and there is no dirt so it is just a deep hole. The hole bends the rim and we get a flat tire. So now we are on a spare tire while our rim is getting fixed! TADaaaa. We had some fun!

Well I love you all. Hope you have had a great week and I hope you have a great week!

Love Sister Hanson
