Another landmark day has passed. Sariah's graduation ceremony was Friday night. We are super proud of her. We enjoyed an ice cream social to celebrate this afternoon. She has been working at Walmart for a week or so now. Her real training starts tomorrow 5 am to 1:30.
Spencer, Jill, & Emerson & Emma (both HS and AA) all graduated as well. Look who else was there! Karly flew out to watch Katie walk. It was so great to see her. When I hug her it feels like I am hugging a part of you. Their family spent the weekend at the beach house.
Trudi let us swim in her pool while she is visiting her grandkids up north. It has been such a lovely treat! Can you believe it was 108 last weekend?!? Thankfully, it was much cooler this weekend for the ceremony.
Tonight at a girls camp meeting, Sister Hill did such a powerful lesson. She blind folded each of us, turned off the lights, played songs that represented different parts of the Savior's life. She asked us to have our hands open to be able to feel. As the music played, an object would be paced in hands to represent the words of the song. There were 5 songs. Sometimes we would smell vinegar or see light or feel our arm be wiped down with soft cloth or feel tears drop on our hands. Straw, thorns, wooden beam, thorns, nail & sacrament cup are the items that were strategically placed in our hands. My words don't do it justice. It was really touching.
My studies this week in the Book of Mormon find me really impressed with how great the Lord strengthens us to meet the task or battle evil. The war continues to rage and we must prayer earnestly and continually to gain the lords strength. With His strength we can do all things. I love you.
Love,
Mom
Hey Mom,
that experience that you had with Hermana Hill had me flipando. (Watch the video). Anyways this Week was really good because we didn't almost get punched by a dude. But really it was an amazing, our friend Nelido, change his date of baptism to the 25th of this month, because he wanted to be spiritually prepared. But it's alright. We don't baptize a less active. The work is going fast here and so is the time. I have been in the islands for almost 4 1/2 months, mucho tiempo! I've learned a lot of things on my mission especially for my amazing companion Heavenly Father, no it's a joke Elder Morris. I'm really glad that I'm here and I really appreciate the chance that God has given me. I really liked the experience that you had with Jennifer that would have been cool to see, I mean touch. I have been reading in the New Testament and I have learned a lot about the life of Jesus Christ. And what he did for us. I love you mom and miss sitting by the table and chatting with your friends while y'all were scrap booking. I love you Mom and I'm excited to hear from you next week. Love Elder Beal
