Walkin in a Winter Wonderland!!

Posted on Updated on

Alrighty! I don’t have a lot time today because we are going to the Space and Rocket Museum with a member today so yea! But I wanted to share of our winter wonderland experience!

Okay, all week we had been hearing about the bad weather that was going to hit Friday in the afternoon. We asked random people on the streets about it, we talked to members, and we even checked our weather radio! It was to be cold ALL week. And yes, it was. Sister Crandall and I went walking and tracting in 17 degrees and lower because of the windchill…and let me just say, when it’s that cold outside with humidity….I felt like I was going to literally become Frozen….just like Ana. 😉
It’s a type of cold that just doesn’t sit outside of you, it literally will eat through all your layers and sting to your bones. It’s insane! But not even that can stop the work of the Lord! We had a lot of people tell us we were crazy!
There was one morning we turned on our weather radio to hear what it had to say for the day and it told us that: ‘The windchill could cause frostbite, hypothermia, and DEATH.’ Sister Crandall and I looked at each other with wide eyes and stunned faces. It was really funny. (:
I was also able to go on exchanges with Sister Conant this week! We were actually on exchanges when the snow hit so we were stuck inside most of our exchange. It was fun cause we got to sit and talk a lot about who knows what! (:
This week has been good! I have really enjoyed it. I can’t wait to see what this week holds! More snow I hear! o:
I love y’all! Have a great week!
Love,
Sister Jesselyn Drummond
ps. I will have to send pictures next week!

BAPTISM!!!?

Posted on

Alrighty y’all! The interesting thing that happened this week was we had a baptism in our little box! (: Y’all are probably really confused right now! I was at first too, don’t worry haha.
 .
We got a call from our ward mission leader on Tuesday, remember I haven’t been here very long at this point. Almost a week. But he told us that the Bishop’s granddaughter is getting baptized on Sunday and she is 9 years old…that means her baptism needs to go through the mission y’all. We were flabbergasted! This just does not happen!! Well we were able to teach sweet little Madeline, and her younger sister, Isabelle, who is 8, in 3 days! Yes, 3 days so they could be baptized together. (: It was the cutest little thing! Seeing the young girls make promises with God was a wonderful experience! (:
 .
Also some numbers for y’all. I don’t remember if I explained ever before but our mission is doing this thing called the ‘hour of power.’ Where for 1 hour we just go crazy nutso bold and invite EVERYONE to be baptized. Or if we are focusing on a different key indicator it will be that. But this last week we were focusing on baptismal invitations. Now our goal as a mission was to get 2 thousand invites within 6 hours throughout the week. That is a lot. We as a zone decided to really push ourselves! Can I just say, I have not been more proud in my entire life!!! The Huntsville North zone started out on Tuesday with only 58 baptismal invites in 1 hour. We kept increasing and last night, a SUNDAY of all days…our goal was 200 baptismal invites in 1 hour. Y’all our zone, the Huntsville North zone in 1 hour got 318 baptismal invites!! SAY WHAT!?!?! We got a total of 872 invites for our zone in 6 hours! I’m just braggin on these missionaries now. (: THEY ARE SO AWESOME!! As a mission total, within 1 week in 6 hours we got a total of over 3 thousand. WE BLEW OUR GOAL OUT OF THE WATER!!!! Best mission ever!! I’m so excited to see how the Lord is going to bless us because of our hard work and boldness. (: SO COOL!!!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
 .
Sister Crandall and I are just partyin here in our small box. (: We love it and can’t wait to see how else the Lord is going to bless us! (: Love y’all so much!! Keep on keepin on! Have a great week!
