This week was pretty solid: the students all came back so that town isn't dead anymore and we have a lot of work to do. Although we aren't actually the YSA (young single adults) elders we are going to be helping them a lot because they live far away. I just love the feel of being on a college campus. It is pretty fun.
-Cool story of the week. We were teaching the friend of one of our members. She is way cool but struggles with some mental issues and mild schizophrenia. I felt impressed to promise her that as she read the Book of Mormon those problems would go away. It came true and now she loves the Book of Mormon and her friend has the opportunity to baptize her this Saturday. We are so excited for her!
We are also just starting to teach a family that is friends with a YSA. The mom has been going through a lot and just sent her son to juvy. There has just been so much chaos in her life and it was amazing to see that while we were all with her she seemed at peace and had hope. She committed to come to church next week.
One of the recent reactivated members (q Chains for those of you who know) has been preparing to serve a mission and is progressing sooooo well. It is great to see. Almost all the rest of the YSA group is preparing to serve a mission. I love it! Missionary work really can solve all of the problems in our lives, whatever they may be, because we receive an increased measure of the Spirit, come closer to our Father in Heaven and loose sight of our selves while serving others and seeing how much joy has come into their lives. It's the truth!
