Hello All! So first of all...we had four...yes 4 of the less active members that we are currently working with come to churhc yesterday!! Oh man, it was amazing to see four people sitting in sacrament meeting and to see their desire to come back and renew those covenants was such a wonderful sight. I just know they will keep progressing and feel even more the love that our Heavenly Father has for them. Last Tuesday we were walking around Spring Lske...there really isn't a lake...so I am not real sure why it is called that. It was super duper hot, we were walking around meeting new members of the ward and sweating. Now, when I say sweating...I mean SWEATING. I had to keep asking Sister Felton if my face was red...but she said it wasn't. So...there we were walking and sweating...we came to the last house before our ride was coming to get us. Now...in this humidity the sweat just sorta sticks, so if you try to wipe the sweat from your brow...it doesn't work because the rest of your skin is wet. Sorry for the gross picture...but it needs to be described. We got to the door...the member opens the door, takes a look at both of us and yells for her husband to get some water. So we were obviously a site to see, but they were kind and gave us water and a paper towel to wipe our faces! I was reading in Alma 10 this morning about Amulek and the angel that appeared to him, telling him that he should stop from his journey and go back to feed this man of God. Alma and Amulek did. I absolutely love the scriptures and how applicable they are. It is amazing to see and be reminded of the faith and trust that we need to put in our Heavenly Father and follow his teachings. I have to get going...but I sure hope everyone is doing great. Please be safe! Love, Sister Oliverson
