The Tale of The Travel Back in Time

Hello Family!!! I hope that you are all doing well and that you are not to cold (especially the Christensens). Well this is the ed of another week! Also before I forget we have transfers this next Tuesday. So hold off on any letters or things till I tell you next Tuesday. I am not sure what will happen but I will be sure to let you know. So this has been a really good week and we have been able to see lots of people! So with out further a due here are the stories of the week!

Story 1 The Tale of The Travel Back in Time

First off, no Rachael I did not find the TARDIS and no Morgan I did not bring my timeturner with me. This week was MLC which is the meeting for all the Zone leaders and Sister training Leaders. It is always awesome to go and meet with them and President and Sister Miller. Well the weather here has been very strange. For a few days it is nice enough out side to have a light sweater, then the next day we get 1/2 inches of snow and the cancel the schools. Yes they really canceled school for less than an inch of snow, sad I know. Well the day that we were supposed to drive down to Albuquerque it was supposed to snow really bad. So the AP's told us to drive the night before and stay with some sisters in Albuquerque. So we called a few sisters and we drove down and stayed with them. Well the sisters we stayed at were in my old area Canyon Heights! It was so crazy to go back to my old apartment and see the board with all the investigators on it. I knoew some of them but there were a few that I did not know. It just makes me realize that after this transfer I only have 4 left!!!! I hit my year in March and I don't know were the time has gone. So I guess that it was a travel back in time with a glimpse at the future.

Story 2 The Tale of A Fun Craft

There is a old Navajo lady in our ward named Grandma (she makes us call her that) well this past week we went to her house and we helped her make skirts. It was really fun to help her and really hard.

They were Navajo skirts and they are a lot harder than they look. They have ruffles and it is really hard to sew a ruffle on a skirt apparently. Well as a thanks for helping her she let us take 2 and they are so cute! I think mom can do it much faster, and easier. So when I get home I will be most defiantly be learning how to sew.  

Story 3 The Tale of the Blessing of The Priesthood

We have a elderly couple that we are teaching and the husband has been haveing health problems. so we offered to have the Elders come over and give him a blessing, and they said that they wouyld like that. So we called the Elders and set it up. So we go to there house and start to talk about the pristhood and how the blessing works on your faith. So the elders get there, and they give Bob a blessing. The spirit that was there was amazing and Bob was very grateful for the blessing. We stopped by a few days later we stopped by and asked how he felt. And he said that he felt really good and that he knows that the blessing helped. It is amazing to see how the priest hood can bless peoples lives. 

Story 4 The Tale of the Reason for the Season

Happy Valentines day !!!! I hope that you all have a great one and remember that I love all of you so very much! I miss you all so dearly and think of you often. Russlle M. Nelson said "When I think of the love I feel for each member of our family, I sense, to a slight degree, the love that our Heavenly Father bears for His children. While the family is under attack throughout the world, The Church ofJesus Christ of Latter-day Saints proclaims, promotes, and protects the truth that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children. “The Family: A Proclamation to the World” and our vast family history efforts are but two evidences of how this Church brings hope and help to the sacred institution of the family." I am so blessed for my family and the fact that we are all staying together in the gospel. I feel so blessed to have this chance to help other families find that same joy that we have! 

Well that is it folks. I hope that you all have a great week and remember that I love all of you very much!!! And I hope that you all can remember that you are the children of God. And he loves you and me so much. 

I love you all, 
Sister Chatwin

P.S 2319 WE HAVE A 2319!!!!!
