Laughing All the Time

Hello friends and family!

So it's only been a few days since I last emailed, but so much has

happened! I am loving being in a trio with Sister Aiton and Sister

Ward! We seriously have so much fun all the time! We are ALWAYS

laughing! I love it so much! Here is a recap of what happened this

week and how our area is doing!

We've been able to teach our investigator Heather a few times! Heather

is in the YSA and she lives farther away, so we have skype lessons

with her! She is progressing really well! We talked to her about

baptism today actually and she has decided that she wants to pray a

little bit more about it, but she's not against the idea of baptism!

She is awesome! We've also been able to set up a lot of appointments

this week with potential investigators which is awesome! There a part

member family in our Ward, that we had dinner with a couple of weeks

ago and we were able to meet the non member daughter and her family!

We called her on Friday and she invited us over for dinner and a

lesson tomorrow! What a miracle! She has six cute little kids running

around the house so it should be fun! Also, while we were helping

someone move Saturday morning, we got a call from a random number and

it was a man who had taken the lessons before and wanted to get back

into it! Another miracle! We have a meeting with him tomorrow

afternoon! We are seeing miracles here in Fairfield!

At church yesterday, Sister Aiton and I were asked to give talks in

sacrament meeting! We also sat with a mom in the congregation whose

husband was at work that day and helped her handle her kids. I love

being able to serve people! After second hour of church, we went to

the institute building just down the road and went to the singles

ward! I forgot what it's like to be in a YSA haha it was their Ward

conference yesterday and the stake presidency decided to talk about

the law of chastity for 30 minutes during Sunday school...haha it was

really weird being missionary and being taught about appropriate

dating and what not haha. We just sat in the back and tried to keep

our thoughts focused on the mission and not about dating. We laughed

pretty hard after church though.

I was able to teach at zone meeting on Friday! I taught on exercising

faith. So when we got to be taught by elder Hemula he talked about how

chapter 8 in preach my gospel in how we exercise our faith as

missionaries. So I taught a whole segment on the importance of chapter

8 and why we need it and how we should use it! I learned a lot while

preparing for it! I also am preparing right now to teach in district

meeting tomorrow! I love preparing and planning for teaching!

I love this work and I love this gospel! We are so blessed to have the

gospel in our lives! Strive to emulate Christ in all that you do, and

I promise that greater blessings and happiness will flow into your

life! Have a great week! I love you all!

Love always, Sister Thompson 🌻

Pday at the park last week!

The trio!

Idaho street!

So we contacted a guy in his front yard and we started talking to him.

Turns out he builds his own cars and loves anything and everything

about Germany. So this car I'm sitting in is a car he built. I can't

remember the year but it's a Jetta and the seats in it were Rosario?

We can't remember haha but they are really nice German leather seats

haha it was an awesome contact.

Photo shoot when we got lost haha it is so green here during the

winter! I love it!

The leadership in the Fairfield zone! The STL, zone leaders, and

district leaders!
