Hello!
Hey!! Thanks for the emails today! Haha- Mom I'm not going to lie.. I laughed when you said that it's HOT and it's only like 100! I feel like I'm (kind of) adapting to the TEXAS and NEW MEXICO heat!! haha.
Anywho... I was sick all week... yay! Worst cold of my life- my bottle of Nyquil was my bff haha but it didn't stop the work at all! We were constantly on-the-go this week! I think we filled up on gas like 5X this week! We cover a LOT of ground! We had interviews this week with President Heap- we talked about release dates...weird... and I'll update you on that in my letter home today.
We had a cool experience earlier in the week- we were talking to a man in the park who is an employee at one of the hotels here in Dalhart. He told us that he just put copies of the Bible in the rooms and so we taught him about the Book of Mormon and how it is a companion volume to the Bible! He agreed to put the B.O.M. in all the rooms! Woot woot! Talk about floodin' the earth with the fullness of the gospel!! I'm pumped about it! :)
We went to Tucumcari this week and taught a referral! She met with missionaries a couple years ago and continues to read the Book of Mormon everyday! She has been through so many difficult trials in her life but knows that the church is true! I know she will be baptized in the near future!... Most prepared human of life!!! We went to the TUC branch for church yesterday- oh boy! We've got to get some young folks in there! The branch is going to die off!! haha.
We are working with a lot of life-time less-active families right now... I have learned the importance of being ACTIVE in church for the rest of my life on my mission! It affects generations!! Elder Holland said, "This is the call of the gospel message to...everyone... in the world. Come, but come to remain. Come with conviction and endurance. Come permanently, for your sake and the sake of all the generations who must follow you, and we will help each other be strong to the very end."
I love y'all! Have a great week
Love,
Sister Evans
