Hello! 4/14/14

This will be short, I am sorry!
This week I have learned a lot about loving others. Every day I realize another reason Sis. Baker and I are companions. She helps me to be better Every Day. We had exchanges on Wednesday, and that was kinda nerve wracking for me, I was with Sis. Bonham and we were here in Yucaipa. It was the first time I have really been in charge of planning. It was kind of stressful, but Sis. Bonham is so patient! She is the kindest person and I have loved working with her. We had a really good day that day, even though our amazing progress I thought we were making with Stella didn't end up so amazing. 
Sis. Baker and I have been working on talking with  EVERYONE. I have seen how much of a difference that has made. We haven't had any success as far as new investigators, yet! but I have noticed that I am happier and there are a lot more potentials than there would be if we didn't talk to everyone. On Tuesday we went and delivered a B-day card to a less-active. He has Parkinsons and art has become his therapy, he does a lot with recycling and sculpture and makes cool skyscraper city looking things out of old metal. I love it and I think I might buy one.. Coolest thing ever. anyways after we talked to him we decided to walk a little bit more before we went to our next appointment. We were in an area that we hadn't really spent a lot of time in and we had never walked around. We walked down a street and we needed to start heading back, we almost turned around but decided to walk a little further. We didn't see anyone out but as we walked past the next house we saw two people. One happened to be a member, he goes to the spanish branch, so we didn't know him but he was at his neighbors who isn't a member. We had a really good conversation with them and it basically made our day. 
My testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ has been strengthened this week. The gospel is simple, I love it and I love to share it!
I love you all!
