The One Where Her Question Changed


Wow. Okay People. God is Good.
This week has been one for the books!
Evelyn made GROUND BREAKING PROGRESS! We had a crazy spiritual lesson at the church. We had i directly in front of the Baptismal font. We discussed the reading assignment that we gave her (Lehi's Dream). We drew out the scene and then just let the spirit guide us by asking inspired questions. Honestly, I could talk about the lesson for hours, but to sum it up, before I could ask her to pray about a date to be baptized, she said, "You know when I first started learning about this church and baptism, I was asking God the question, 'Is this right or is this wrong', but my prayers have changed. I know that this is true, and I want to be baptized. Now my question is simply, 'How and when'". She was so concerned though because she feels like she will not be ready for a couple of months and she knows that I will probably be leaving in the next 5 or 6 weeks. That made my heart grow a THOUSAND sizes!!!
Badam stared school and is still working full time so she has not had time to meet so we had to get a bit creative! We have been teaching her through What's App! We have been sending her little pieces of information about the commandments in Mongolian and she really likes it! 
This week Sister Magleby and I had the opportunity of attending a leadership conference. There were a lot of cool experiences, but my favorite part was when President Brown discussed with us how Jesus Christ enables us to change. I cannot explain the feeling that was in that room when we all thought about our Savior Jesus Christ and shared how he has helped us change our lives. I am so grateful for him. He is my everything.
Have a happy week!

Love, Sis Reay

- Our Conference was in Munich and let me tell you what, this Arizonian could not wipe the look of amazement off of her face as she saw a 3 1/2-foot blanket of snow on the ground everywhere!!!
- The days are getting lighter. BLESS UP! the sun actually came out today and I almost cried.
- My companion got revenge for the snow fight last week by throwing a bunch of Snow Powder at my face as I was inhaling, and it went up my nose.
