Hello all!

    Story time! This week we went to one of our investigators houses for a lesson. We talked about the woman at the well and the gospel of Jesus Christ. The lesson went super well! In fact it went so well that we set a baptismal date with her! July 11! Woot Woot! Sister McDermott and I were so excited! The missionaries have been working with Brenda for about six months and she is just now accepting and learning! It is awesome to see people working hard to change their lives to become closer to Heavenly Father. She is a very sweet lady and I can't wait to see what happens next!
   

    In district meeting two weeks ago one of the sisters said something that I love and completely agree with:

     "My mission isn't just the best thing IN my life, its the best thing FOR my life."

                                                                                     -Sister McNeil

How true that statement is! It is the best thing in my life at this moment and it will be the best thing for my life but also for the life of my future family.

In the same district meeting President Griffin talked to us a little bit. He told us that Satans best weapon against us is self defeat.  When we are down on ourselves he wins. That was a great reminder to me that even though things get tough I need to keep pushing forward and not let Satan win. Sister Griffin also shared a few words. She was talking to us about how Heavenly Father has a plan for us. He didn't create the plan to make us fail or to only have some of us return to Him. He wants us all to return to him. He sent us here to be tried and tested. We already know who the victor will be. Lets all play for the winning team.

    Always remember where you came from and where you will return to. Do your best and God will do the rest.

    Thank you for all your support and love! I appreciate it!

Love you all!

Love,

Sister Draney
