Sister Macey Gates // Week Thirteen

This week was definitely interesting haha so basically we put Jesus back on date for the 26th! but he is still just having the hardest time with his family and knowing if he should be baptized or not so we dont know what to do anymore.  But we are still trying! We took him to the adult session of stake conference with us and it was on Hasten the Work haha he actually really liked it! We sang the Armies of helaman/ as sisters in zion song and he said he thought that it was so amazing.  He said he felt the spirit really strong. I told him i would play it on the piano for his baptism and he thought that was pretty cool and really wants that.  He just needs to choose to be baptized!!!!! We have picked up a few investigators, and also dropped a few. We dropped leslie cause she told us church wasnt for her, but we picked up a few too! These two high school girls Joscelin and Prilla. They just wanna know everything haha its awesome.  We actually went and talked to some people in the park and it was all the homeless people and they let us pray with them.  some of them thank us for doing that and that they felt something and to come again, but its kinda sketchy haha The language is coming!! I can understand like 70% of it and on of our investigators Estella shes old haha but she told me that she could understand me so that was so fun to hear! Weve also been working on less actives and thats been interesting.  Sunday night we visited some and i got the worst headache from trying to understand everything haha i asked one simple question, why he got baptized and he went on for 45 min making up excuses and then finally at the end said he wanted to change.  Then Monday! Man monday was not the funnest.  I woke up so sick haha i really do think i have nodes again hahahha i layed in bed till like 11 oclock and then got up to have a shower and do my laundry, and then i just had to lay down again cause i was in so much pain.  We had to go to the store so we went at like 5 and nothing sounded good at all.  but i just got a few things.  We had to teach jesus last night and that was hard. I almost threw up but i never did!! YEAH! We came home and i was so weak i just went to bed.  I had like 20 blankets and i was still freezing cold. I said a prayer to help me just sleep through the night once and i did! I got a blessing after district meeting and it was really comforting.  It just really sucks haha but thats okay! I am a survivor of nodes:) again:) haha well thats basically my week not too much has happened but i do feel my saviors love for me.  Especially fasting saturday with Jesus. Fasting is an awesome thing:) Have such a good week and sorry i didnt email yesterday the library was closed..... But i did get the package mom hahahha it was the best thing ever!!
