We get our Transfer calls this coming Saturday. How gross is that! I am praying that Sister Jackson will be staying with me for my last transfer! We have been working so hard in our area and we have seen the miracles that have come because of our hard work!
Y'all a prayer has been answered! We have been praying for this part member family that the Pricilla and Isaias will get married so that Pricilla can be baptized! And we prayed for that ALL last transfer and guess what.... they are getting married this Friday and then she will be baptized next Saturday!! We are soooooo Excited!!! We love their family. We did family home Evening with them and didn't push them at all towards marriage of baptism or anything and we just left it all up to Gods will and His will is the best way:) When she told us we literally were jumping up and down and screaming "Si, Si! Estamos muy emocionada!" She is literally so excited and so is her husband. he is born into the church and long story short they couldn't get married until now. God is so good. It is the right timing for them and how blessed are we to be able to be here for it. She has been waiting 7 years for this moment. We will send pictures next week for the wedding. She asks, "sisters, how soon after my baptism can I go to the temple to be baptized for my mother??" That question is like music to our ears. She has her temple date planned as well. Oct. 14th is the day. I will be here! They are also coming to General Conference next year in SLC with me:) The Gospel is true and it can bless us so much!
On sunday I am speaking on Charity and I am so grateful. Ive studied a lot about Charity and every time I learn a whole new thing. There is a difference between Love and Charity. With love we can also have hate. I think that's where, "Its a love/hate relationship" comes from. haha The Charity is the absolute pure love of Christ. The Highest amount of Love that you can give to someone. I challenge all of you to look to those you love and ask yourself how you can love them even more. And how you can show them that you have that love for them. 1 Cor. 12:8 and 2 "For with out Charity, we are NOTHING" Everything revolves around Charity:)
I still got to pray about it to see if that is what im really going to be talking about.
We also have 2 other baptisms coming up. Please pray that they will be just as prepared as Pricilla is! Love y'all! Have an amazing week! Don't every give up in the Lord, you just have to remember that it is all in his timing:)
If I get transferred before Pricilla's baptism I will just laugh. I don't think God is that mean. Its happened with almost all of my areas I just pray it doesn't happen in my last area!
Chao and Love you ALL,
Hermana Russell
