Birthday Cake

Birthday Girl

Josie and Sister Bush

Hey all you! It's been such a great week! Thank you for all of the

birthday wishes, thoughts, packages, and cards! I love you all! I hope

you are all enjoying the greatest holiday of the year and that you all

eat some apple pie for me!

It has been a great week! We had an awesome lesson with a lady named

Sister Hughes! She is a less active who hasn't been active in about

ten years. It was so awesome to meet her! We got her records just a

few weeks ago so we got to go visit with her! She is so awesome! She's

got an awesome bunch of kids and a family that's hungry for the

gospel! It was amazing!

We also met with Dave this week! He prayed at the end of our lesson

and he prayed that he would believe in what we were teaching! He also

lost his Book of Mormon so he printed off the chapter we left him to

read! It was awesome! He's doing so great! We are excited to see him

progress!

We haven't met with Jean and Rich this week due to some family things

that they are going though but they are doing well!

We had an amazing lesson this week with a girl named Ashley! She was a

referral from a member and she is so ready for the gospel! She really

needed the Plan of Salvation and as we taught it tears kept filling

her eyes as she felt the spirit testify of how it is a real! It was

one of the best lessons I've had as a missionary and I loved being

able to testify about something that is so real and so personal. I

love it!

We got to go see Brenda again! I love her so much! She is amazing and

she loves the gospel so much it's incredible! She also loves books

(she had doubles of some, so mom, watch out for a package)! We got to

help her organize her bookshelves and it was like heaven for me! I

felt right at home helping her organize them, don't worry I didn't

read any. I wrote a lot down though!

One thing that is so crazy that happened this week. Our car died. Well

the battery was so drained that we couldn't jump it with a car, so

that we thought we needed to be towed. We called the tow truck

company, and he jumped it with a jumper box and it started right

up....we took it to autozone and it turns out that it is totally fine.

'Tis the life of a missionary....

This gospel is so true my friends. It's so true. Teaching Ashley the

Plan of Salvation really hit me. I got to testify of how I could see

my loved ones again. This gospel is so real, and so many people are

missing out of the truth that we have. They don't know what it means

to have what we have. That is why I'm a missionary, to help people

find what is missing from their lives. Wether it is from doing

service, by example or by missionary work. It is amazing to watch the

gospel light up people's lives. I highly recommend it, it is great and

the most rewarding thing I've done in my 20 years of life.

I love you all! Have a great week!

Much love,

Sister Jackson
