Dearest everyone that i love so much!!!!!!!!!!

blah blah blah

blah blah blah

blah blah blah blah blah blah BLAH. that was my week. haha :)

just kidding it was way better than a blah but i just dont really feel all that wordy today cause my head feels like a balloon about to pop ha. thank HEAVENS for the meds mom sent me. I LOVE YOU.

carrie had work off all week.. so we went over there as much as possible and can i just say THAT LADY IS AMAZING.. she was like worst of the worst druggies a year ago.. like on every kind of drug you can imagine and now she is like... she is like king lamoni or something. and she is so converted and sends us to her friends all the time and teaches so powerfully and moves me to tears everytime she talks about the gospel. we have been working with her kids A and L and  Lis preparing to become a deacon (which weirds me out that seth is older than L cause i feel like seth is still only 10 in my eyes.. he's my little brother.. dont grow up ever seth) but so we have been doign scripture challenges with him and i love it :)

G moved up to high prairie this week.. WAY UP HIGH NORTH

H one of my favorite people up here is so crazy and tries to do to much stuff and was overwhelmed and on top of that was trying to cover like 4 people at work and didnt have time to make her family suppers.. so we went during our lunch our and i made some LOVELY turkey soup... mom you would be so proud.. it was GOOD.

we went and visited H and her two darling children.. she is a member but the kids arent.. they both want to be baptised so bad and i know they will be soon. they are elect kids i tell you. so noble. their little eyes shine so bright :)

we had a do or die lesson with C... she is so stubborn that lady and she told us she doesnt want to learn the gospel unless she learns it from US. so i said then she really must not want to learn the gospel cause thats not what its about. its not MY work. its the LORDS and he will send whomever he wants to where ever he wants and its for the BEST. and she said... fine. so slowly but surely she will be converted. She sent us to a lady nameT this week. she told us a little bit about her life and sparing you the details.. it hasnt been a nice life... and she is looking for a church.. but she didnt know we knew that and when we knocked on her door she was rude and couldnt wait to shut the door.. the the spirit wouldnt let us leave so basically putting my foot in the door i just kept asking her questions about herself and what she was looking for and she kept shooting us down cause she had all these misconceptions about "mormons" and FINALLY she let us in enought for us to straighten out some of her false ideas and long story short she invited us back to drink "ice water" not tea or cofee haha.. and she then texted us the next morning about what time our church starts!!!! so that was cool :) i love people

G and M had their baby!!! they named him hyrum and he is so gorgeous... i could just kiss his little head but im not allowed to hold him :P rude.

we went to the P's little baby's bday party and met a bunch of philipinos and a german guy and had cool conversations with all of them.. but they all had closed hearts to change. :( its really frustrating to me cause all i want to do is change for the better.. and i feel like im not changing all that much and then people that i know can change and should change and would be SO MUCH HAPPIER if they would just TRY are closed to it.

i can only imagine the tears our father in heaven sheds for us if i cry this much for people i hardly know.

i love this gospel and i love these people so much. i love them so much i would die for them but i donthave to because someone way cooler than me and capable already did. all i need to do is testify of him.

Jesus is the Christ. and his atonement covers us. USE IT.

 i love you all

love sister douglas
