Hey family and friends!!

This week has been so amazing!!! Probably one of the best weeks of my
mission. I love serving with Sister Wentzel. She is such a hard worker
and we get stuff done! This week we have seen that being exactly
obedient brings blessings. We have been trying to be exactly obedient
and the blessings have come. God is so real!! :)

So this week we has two members come out with us different times who
are preparing to go on a mission. It has been so great see them
getting in the mode of missionary work. I didn't remember how hard it
was until they started coming out with us. It still isn't the easiest
to talk to people in the street or knock on someone's and try to share
the gospel with them but I truly have seen a difference in the past 16
months. The mission truly does change people because we see so many
miracles happen everyday and it helps our testimonies grow.

Last night we were out tracting with Garett(preparing to go on a
mission) and there were these two people standing outside. One had a
cigarette in her hand and the other was dancing. He was really happy!
Hahaha we went and talked to them and come to find out they are
looking to come back to a church and find the truth. Don (the one who
was dancing) is going in the navy to be a Chaplin. It was so good
because we had a great discussion about religion and got to know them
so well!! :)

Oh we had an awesome with a new investigator and his name is Yong. He
comes from China and has no religious background. We were planning on
teaching him just about the godhead and he just kept asking great
questions so we ended up practically teaching the whole Restoration.
It was so awesome!!! The smile that was on his face was priceless. And
we talked to him on a bus! On the bus! :):) it was great!!! We invited
him to be baptized and he said that he can't swim.. It was kinda funny
but we showed him what happens and he said he would be baptized! It
was a great lesson :):)

I hope you are all doing good and will have a great week!! This week I
hit my 16th month mark... I honestly can't believe how fast time has
flown by.. I feel like I am still a greenie sometimes, haha. I am
loving being in State College and a missionary at this time!! I love
you all to the moon and back :)

Love,
Sister Wadsworth
