I hope everyone's week was great!
Last Tuesday I went to Jelgava! Jelgava is a city about 45 minutes away from Riga and it is so cute! We have church members there who come into Riga for church so we went and visited one of them and it was so fun! I love the Jelgava members so much!
This week we had two lessons with new people! Sarmite and Valda. Both went super great! At the end of the lesson with Valda we invited her to pray but she didn't understand that she needed to pray out loud. When she was finished praying herself we asked her how she felt and she said peaceful! We had just talked a lot about peace as well. It was so cool to see how God can answer prayers so quickly. And she said she will be baptized when she knows it's all true!
This week I also started the Book of Mormon over to follow President Nelson's challenge to all the women. At first I was a little sad because I was studying prayer and loving it so much but six months ago as I sustained him as a prophet and as I have studied his words I made the decision to always follow him. So I set my other Book of Mormon aside and started a new one and it has been the greatest thing ever! I have not only come closer to Jesus Christ but have learned more about prayer. I know that as we follow the prophet we will receive so many blessings. I know President Nelson is called of God and by listening to his words we will receive greater strength.
Thank you so much for all the support you give me and missionaries everywhere! I can promise you it helps us every day knowing we have people supporting the Lord's work. I felt the prayers extra strong this week. Thank you so so much!
I love you all and have a great week!
Love,
