Happy thanksgiving to all of you! I just want to take a second in the is email and just thank my family for all they have done for me. I truly have the greatest family ever. I'm so thankful also for my extended family, you can get better grandma's and aunts and uncles and cousins, than I have! And also all my friends and especially the 9. I love you guys and am so grateful for you! I challenge each one of you to try your very hardest this week to be thankful in all situations. Even if something really crappy happens I want you to look at the good and find something that you can be thankful for. I'm going to as well and we will see how it goes next week!
Highlight of the week is the first picture that I'm going to attach below. On Saturday Silvia and Rickey were able to go to the temple and do baptisms for the dead for their family names in the Manhattan temple. The group from Terryville came and stopped by the church to say a quick hello and I just can't describe how I feel about those 2 and for the hand of God in helping them. It's just the coolest thing ever to see the people there embrace them and I'm just above thankful for the members that helped. I also got to see my guy kaoudio cause he was driving them! And then also to top off the week.....Reggie from T-Ville was in the city and took us out for dinner. It was pretty dope, just like the old days. OGG.
Update here in Manhattan! Chris is still at kind of a stale mate so please just keep sending your prayers. It's so cool to see how involved the YSA ward is with him! Our girl Paisley is doing awesome! We had a great lesson with her. She is out of town for thanksgiving but as soon as she is back she coming to church and really wants to get baptized! We have only taught her 2 times and she is literally so smart and the spirit is working in her so much. I know because our teaching is not to here smartness level hahaha and she is just eating it up. It's so cool, God has completely 100 percent prepared Paisley! Others are still doing good as well! I will keep you updated!
Nothing too crazy this week other than that other than it friggin snowed on NOVEMBER 15. I was actually pretty upset haha. We are here freezing in the snow and it's not even Thanksgiving! But it was a good week and I absolutely love the people here in Manhattan...it is such a cool place to be.
Much love to all of you. Pray for gratitude with me this week and I'll catch y'all soon! Happy Thanksgiving. Watch some football for me! Go utes
