Week 58

This week FLEW by!

 At the beginning of the week i made Popsicles! they were so yummy and sour! 

We did ACTUAL service on Friday!!!! it was soooo amazing! We picked a bunch of weeds, actually we picked a TON of weeds. It was for a mother and a daughter that we met through a member referral. They actually bought the house of members who are now living in Rialto, so they love Mormons! they asked us a ton of questions and invited us to come over for dinner this week =D they are such good people i can't wait to share the gospel with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we watched the "because of him"video with them as we were leaving and the daughter was actually tearing up because she Loves her savior so much! I LOVE SERVICE!!! I love helping others =) I wish people would let us do stuff like this more often.... 

Our investigators cancelled on us AGAIN ............................................................................. are you kiddin' me. . . . . . 

Last night we were talking to a Less active that we are working with, who is doing amazing!!! and is totally coming back because of the spirit of the Lord prompting them to change. anyway.... he was talking about the kingdoms or glory and how he kind of always thought that he wouldn't never make it to the Celestial Kingdom. He figured that was the place where people who served "high up" in the church and did LOTS of Amazing works in this life. YEs... they will be there too... BUT us Normal people will be there too! it was so cool seeing him realize  that he has a HUGE chance in being their with his family.  

we ate dinner at the park! yummy i love popcorn for dinner! Kettle corn MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM! i'm also lovin peanuts alot lately 

There is a really good talk from:
 Bruce R. McConkie, "The Probationary Test of Mortality." 
(delivered at the University of Utah Jan. 10, 1982)

We don't need to get a complex or get a feeling that you have to be perfect to be saved.You don't. There's only been one perfect person, and that's the Lord Jesus, but in order to be saved in the Kingdom of God and in order to pass the test of mortality,what you have to do is get on the straight and narrow path – thus charting a course leading to eternal life – and then, being on that path, pass out of this life in full fellowship. I'm not saying that you don't have to keep the commandments.I'm saying you don't have to be perfect to be saved. If you did, no one would be saved. The way it operates is this: You get on the path that's named the "straight and narrow." You do it by entering the gate of repentance and baptism. The straight and narrow path leads from the gate of repentance and baptism, a very great distance, to a reward that's called eternal life. If you're on that path and pressing forward, and you die, you'll never get off the path. There is no such thing as falling off the straight and narrow path in the life to come, and the reason is that this life is the time that is given to men to prepare for eternity. Now is the time and the day of your salvation, so if you're working zealously in this life – though you haven't fully overcome the world and you haven't done all you hoped you might do – you're still going to be saved. You don't have to do what Jacob said, "Go beyond the mark." You don't have to live a life that's truer than true. You don't have to have an excessive zeal that becomes fanatical and becomes unbalancing. What you have to do is stay in the mainstream of the Church and live as upright and decent people live in the Church – keeping the commandments, paying your tithing, serving in the organizations of the Church, loving the Lord, staying on the straight and narrow path. If you're on that path when death comes – because this is the time and the day appointed, this is the probationary estate – you'll never fall off from it, and, for all practical purposes, your calling and election is made sure.

Lunch with the other Sisters! we have so much fun together =D Sister Magleby from st. George, Sister Young from....?? Highland UT, Sister Buswell from North Ogden. Then ME from Zion =D

Everyone just try your hardest. I promise you you will be happy and that Our Heavenly Father WANTS ALL OF US BACK HOME. ALL OF US. All we have to do is follow Christ's Gospel. 

The CUTEST BABY EVER! This is Sister Tu Brownes baby girl Ophilia!

I love this Gospel. I love my Savior Jesus Christ and I know that he lives. 

Love, Sister Kersey Davis
