This weekend there is a heat wave in California! I happen to be serving in the area that is furthest inland in my mission. Saturday was 115° and yesterday it was 117°! We are melting! When you go outside it literally feels like you opened the oven door! So we don't go outside...unless we have to! Today we are retreating to Ventura to stay cool!
We were so crazy busy this week! I had Mission Leadership Conference (MLC), District Leadership Conference (DLC), Combined District Council (CDC) (I gave a discussion in that one), and two exchanges--one with Sister Keele and one with Sister Jacobsen.
I love being busy! It keeps me working hard and focused on the mission! I love my sisters and have had so much fun getting to know them and encouraging them!
Our people are doing great! Vanessa is getting baptized this Saturday, Sergio has been reading the Book of Mormon daily, Melissa quit coffee BEFORE our Word of Wisdom lesson because "she felt like she should". WHAT?! MIRACLES!!!
I know my Savior lives and is strengthening me! I literally could not keep up with all this without his help. Prayer has been a huge support to me as I try my best to serve others! I am really learning to rely on my Savior, my Heavenly Father, and the Spirit! As my mission plaque says "I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever." Alma 26:12
God is good!
