March 4


MY DEAR FAMILY AND FRIENDS:

HI!!!  I have so so much to say.  First of all...does anybody know where February went? (name that song haha)  I cannot believe it's March.  That's so insane.  Ahhhhh.  It has been such a long and tiring and fantastic week.  Where to start?  (ps I don't have too much time, so I'll try to fit in as much as possible) 

DANNI WAS BAPTIZED!!!!  It was on Wednesday night.  It was beautiful. (said in scottish accent).  Lot's of the ward members came.  Brian, her nonmember cousin, came and he loved it and wants to do the same thing. :)  The relief society pres. gave a wonderful talk.  Everyone was so supportive of her.  I was just so proud.  She was really nervous, but Bro. Crawford did a wonderul job and she didn't even freak out at all. haha  It was such a brilliant sight to see her come up out of the water.. everyone said she looked different (in a good way)  She even acted different.  I'm just happy for her.  And so proud.  I'm really grateful Heavenly Father blessed me with her.  :)

I'll send pictures next week when I have more time!!!

I got to spend thursday-friday with Sister Millward.  yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It was like a dream come true. haha Happiest reunion ever.  So we travelled down to Edinburgh on Friday and tried to get the flat set up and then did some finding.  Edinburgh is the coolest city EVER.  I'm in an area called Corstorphine (it's the west side).  There are 12 missionaries in our ward.  12.  It still blows my mind.  Saturday the new missionaries came in and we did the usual.  We got to go up Pratt's Hill and (re)dedicate ourselves and set a baptismal goal.  It was sunny too!  We received lots of training and had delicious food and got to be with lots of missionaries.  I love days like that.  Everyone felt bad for me and Sister Millward (since we're both training two new sisters) haha :)  We're the first ones in this mission to do it-hopefully we don't screw it up. :)  Anyway-I got Sister Clegg (kaysville) and Sister Larsen (Colorado)  They're both really, really good.  They're young too. ;)  But I'm excited it'll be really good.  I'm a bit stressed out about the new area-I've forgotten how to figure out the bus system haha, but I'll be okay.  Exciting stuff. 

Something cool that was said in our training: After we read Act 3:1-6 (i think) we talked about how Christ's name is all we have.  We've given up everything else, but His name.  So we need to go out and give it to the people.  I thought it was neat. :)

Okay..I'm gonna have to get going.  I love you!  Have a great week...pray for the three of us and for the people we're supposed to find. :)

cheers,

Sister Rindlisbacher

ps-a trio isn't as bad as I always imagined haha It's kinda nice!
