Week 17

Mommmmm! Thank you for sending your testimony! :' ) I am so excited to one day tell you all our crazy stories. The baptism went awesome! Her boyfriend was able to be skyped into it which was pretty sweet because he is on a mission in New York currently. I am doing great, Just pushin along trying to teach everyone. I have to constantly remind myself to sing church hymns in my head but Sister Anderson and I like to sing as we walk which is pretty fun... I'm still not that great but no one's ears have bled yet! 

I am soooo excited to hear about Lexie's baptism! You have to send me tons of pictures! I love you so much Mom! also, we were able to go to Goodwill last monday and I got some skirts! 2 of them have pockets! Hallelujah! Also, we were making posters in the YMCA as service and there was this man in a turban whose religion is yoga and nature. He played this really crazy yoga hallelujah music hahaha I thought of you and I doing yoga together :) I love you! Any missionary experiences this week? You should each invite someone to Lexie's baptism! 
I love you!

New companion Sister Anderson


Week 16

Hey Momma! I love you. So we have someone to be baptized next Sunday, and we have a couple of people who stopped meeting with us; but, we are meeting with six or so people so please pray for them all. 

My Blog is sisterhillner.blogspot.com ... I think you can google it. Training is good, Sister Anderson is great, we enjoy teaching and working together! I'm glad JD is doing well in Wrestling. I will pray about your job, I know you are all being blessed. 

I think you should make Lexie's baptism as special as you can, It would be cool if you got her a blanket or a towel to help her understand that the Holy Ghost is like a warm hug that can always be with her as long as she is keeping her covenants with Heavenly Father. Also it would be cool to show her how Jesus was baptized just like she is going to be and maybe read it with her? 

Also, remind her about when she would sit on my lap and I would tell her that the water represents Jesus's blood which He sacrificed for us and how the bread represents His body and how He died so that we can live with Heavenly Father again but she has to do her part. 

The package was soooooooooooo great! I can't even explain to you how much I enjoyed it. Everything! Especially your cute notes and I am wearing the bracelet right now actually :) The Almond toast tasted like home. It was super delicious, the pretzels should be a tradition but I like the caramels better without chocolate :) 

 I love you!
