This Week

Hola mi familia!

This week has been an awesome, faith promoting, hard working week!  We are really putting our all into helping the Lord's work move along.

Saturday night our ward had a CRAZY Mother's Day party. It was so much fun. We have a couple of professional chefs in our ward so the food was amazing, and the entertainment was awesome. There is a member in our ward who sings better than Marc Anthony and Prince Royce combined, and he sang a few songs, plus the elders put together a pretty unique performance... They got permission to do the Hakka and it was HILARIOUS. They did an awesome job. Hope their mothers were proud! They wanted all us sisters to do it too, but it's not exactly the most feminine dance there is out there... Haha.  We respectfully declined. : )

We have really been focusing on growing in faith and working on acting in our faith lately. We had the goal for a family baptism this month, and decided that meant three people. Yesterday we had an amazing interview with our awesome Sister Training Leaders (STLs) and they showed us Matt. 17:20. When we have faith even as a tiny mustard seed, we can move mountains.  Sister Tirado and I were so inspired after this we decided to double our goal and go for 6 baptisms. At this point our district has a goal of 20 baptisms altogether. It is so exciting and  also INSANE! We are working so hard. Hold your breath, people. This is going to be the most rockin' cycle yet.

At a member's house for lunch.

With that goal, we have been focusing on Sandra and family, who are progressing pretty well.  They are ready, but not quite aware of it. She knows she needs to repent and be completely willing to make the sacred covenants (yeah, she's so ready), and she feels like it's going to take a long time to get there. But I know The Lord will work with her and we will be having a baptism this month (plus 5 more!!)

Love you all! Can't wait to talk to all of y'all!

Love,

Sister Dodson
