Hey,
It's always so good to get to the library and hear about all the crazy things that have happened during the week. I am glad that you are all doing well. Adrianne looks so cute. How is she liking Get Connected? I loved it! I am so sorry about Jay's son. Their family will be in my prayers.
Sister Calder and I have had a good week. We had a lesson with Katarine on Wednesday and it breaks my heart because she and her husband are going through marriage problems and she told us that because she doesn't know about her marriage then she really doesn't know if she believes in the principles of the gospel. We know that the gospel will strengthen their marriage! We have a lesson with her tonight and we hope to help strengthen her faith. Continue to keep her in your prayers.
On Friday we went to the Nationals baseball game. I am glad that Karen sent you pictures. I will send mine as well :). They won 6 to 1 against the Phillies. A reporter lady was taking lots of pictures of Sister Calder and I so you should look at the Church News or the DC news and see if anything popped up. If there are pictures of us could you send them to me? I also bought some stuff for Ade, Jake, and Josh. I will hopefully get them off today.
We are teaching another less active who is a convert of about 2 years. He speaks like he should be in the Book of Mormon. He told us, "When I read the Bible I feel good, when I read the Book of Mormon I feel GRRREEAAAT!" I started laughing. It was pretty neat. We have been helping many less actives and are seeing miracles. There are 2 sisters in the ward that no one has been able to reach but because of the goodness of God, we are now meeting with these 2 Do Not Contacts on a weekly basis.
On Sunday we were in a Why I believe Fireside. I sang in the Choir. Senator Orin Hatch spoke. Many nonmembers came. It was a neat experience to talk with them and share what we know to be true.
I love the support I am continuing to get every single week. I love you all! Hey Mom and Dad can you type something in Spanish for Sister Calder and I? We meet many Hispanics and this is what I say:
Otra missionaries, habla espanol jesucristo. Casa? Telephono? I need Spanish lessons asap!
Hope you all have another great week!
Love Sister Smith
P.S You can send the coat if you want. Its cardigan weather right now.
