Guess what we got for Christmas?

Fun footie pajamas!!!! The members really take good care of their missionaries. Thank you!

This Church is true!

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Christ's church. We do have a loving Heavenly Father who knows us and loves each and everyone of us. I know tha Joseph Smith saw God the Father and Jesus Christ. I know that through the spirit of revelation,Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon and that it was written for our day. I know that whoever reads it and prays and ponders the Book of Mormon will come nearer to God and will know for themselves that the Book of Mormon is true through the power of the Holy Ghost.

Part of my New Year's resolution

to be truly penitent and a humble seeker of happiness. We know that as we are repentant we are applying the Atonement in our lives, we are being humble and submissive to the will of the Lord. When we are seeking true happiness, we are obedient to what the Lord has commanded and what he will command. We know that obedience to his commandments brings the choicest blessings.

It is going to be a GREAT year !

I know the Book of Mormon was written for our day and can be applied to our lives in any aspect of our lives. We all can see and liken the scriptures to us when we study by faith with an open and prayerful heart. It has been a real source of comfort and peace to know that Heavenly Father loves me and my Savior knows me and knows exactly what I'm going through. I know the Book of Mormon is true, it is the word of God,and was written by prophets in the Americas over 2000 years ago. I know that an ordinary humble young man named Joseph Smith was called by God to restore Christ's Church here on earth again and that God gave Joseph the power to translate the Book of Mormon so we can have a further witness, light and knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

To get ready for Christmas...

Our district got together at a members home and made a TON of cookies!

Cookies to pass out to investigators,potentials, formers, inactives,etc. We baked FOREVER! But hey, it was worth it because we were able to talk to more people because we brought them cookies and of course you can't turn us down when we have yummy treats in our hands. hehe It also forces them to think of us in a nicer way.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

HO! HO! HO!

In everyday there are always pockets of sunshine

"Just after the rainy days there are pockets of sunshine. This week was a great week of missionary work. Each day is a new day. A day to be a better missionary; a day to find someone new; a new day of learning; a new day to draw myself and others closer to Christ and a new day of FUN!

CELEBRATION

Lauren turned 22 Nov.27,2010. The members in Duvall made sure Sister Kimball had a wonderful birthday. They didn't forget her. Even the Elders in her district remembered. The family and friends at home also remembered and sent gifts and best wishes.

BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE !

Yes, It's December and it's cold outside.Sister Kimball and Sister Dennison were enjoying many MIRACLES the night of the Duval Community Tree lighting. Lauren often mentions all the "tender mercies" of the Lord that have been bestowed upon her and her companion.
