This will be short since I got to talk to a lot of you yesterday! I was so grateful that we were able to Skype yesterday! The nieces and nephews are growing up way too fast. Glad you are all as crazy as I remember! So much that I was literally yelling at the beginning and no one could hear me ha-ha. Some things never change.

 

For those of you that don't know, Vanessa is still doing great! We have to do a little bit more work with her grandma being back in Indiana, but that's alright. She is receiving some persecution from people at home, but she is staying strong. That girl's testimony is as hard as a rock. I don't think that I would have been that strong at 11, but Vanessa isn't your average 11 year old.

 

We have the funnest ward activity ever on Saturday! It was at a place called Leesylvania State Park. It was probably one of the funnest things I've done on the mission so far! There was this huge body of water that was from the Potomac River and a beautiful little beach. Since all of our investigators that were there were kids, we just played on the beach the whole time and dug holes in the sand and it was a blast. And we got to wear pants which is always a plus. And there is this bridge there that is half Maryland half Virginia! It was way cool. I'll send lots of pictures. It was just so fun. I love this ward!

 

Corina is good. She hasn't started back on the path of progression. She hasn't been reading or praying lately and she doesn't feel ready for baptism anymore, but she is going to start back up again! And her and her husband came to church yesterday which was really great. Pray that she will be ready for baptism soon!

 

Well I hope you all have the best week ever! The Church is true. I am so grateful for this knowledge, and that I know that I can be with my family for forever. Go out and share the gospel! I love you!!!

 

And now I close mine epistle. I am Hermana Horton.
