This week was baptismal invite week! We had a mission goal of 1247 invitations extended in one week, and we went madi$on mad on em!! Just about everyone we talked to got invited to be baptized, even in a doctors office waiting room. Now our poor APs gotta hold up their end of the deal and shave their heads. The KICs this week were off the charts and the miracles just kept piling on!! In the zone, but especially in our quad. We found like 50 people in an hour of street contacting at this strip mall, crazy spiritual high.  This week was a blast! We spent a night in the trailer, had a "Christmas morning" with a member, and went to the moms of Madison dinner party- #milftraining  Have a very merry Christmas yall!!!

Wild week! We roadtripped all over to get furniture for our new sisters, we spent two full days driving around running errands. MLC with Elder Palmer rocked the house and we did a temple session in the morning- it was the best day. The administrative responsibilities of being STLs are garbage but we went monkey madness mode and got it all done. Super super busy week, absolutely flamed us. But the Lord does his work with or without us, all we gotta do is get on the train! Love you all!!

It was a seriously full week so I'll just bullet point the highlights! -Our AC broke so we partied at no less than 80 degrees in the apt all week! #eternalsummer  -We hopped down to Clinton for Zoco and it was amazing as always!! We have a new initiative from Prez to memorize 42 scriptures for the 42 principles we teach from PMG, it's an intimidating goal but it's going to be so good for the work.  -There was a stunning storm that swept Madison last week, it became a couple tornadoes a few miles north of us. But in Madison, we just had a crazy wild lightning storm. -The ward had our Christmas party, and we had so much fun, especially with our YSA group!  -We also got T-boards!! Sis Willy and I are staying to be the Jackson STLs! I can't wait for Christmas in this adorable city, the decorations they've got up make it feel like a hallmark movie!  Neal A Maxwell gave a talk at BYU in which he defined meekness as not shrugging your shoulders in acceptance but squaring y
