"I am called of God. My authority is above that of kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my master and He has chosen me to represent Him--to stand in His place, to say and do what He Himself would say and do if He personally were ministering to the very people to whom He has sent me. My voice is His voice, and my acts are His acts; my doctrine is His doctrine.My Commission is to do what He wants done; To say what He wants said; to be a living modern witness in word and in deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous Latter-day work. How great is my calling!"

burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Hi! I'm just doing to put a disclaimer on the email. My grammer had gotten SO BAD since I've been in Montana, it's rediculousl. I say things like, "Thems right over there" and "The books is right there". so sad.
Oh man it is getting so cold here! Highs in the 40s yesterday and there is snow on the mountains. Other than having a cold and coughing up lots of green flem, I'm doing great =) Ha, too much info?? My brain feels a bit foggy with this cold, so this email is going to be lame, sorry!Last night we had a really good lesson with Terry, and Wade actually came to church on Sunday; that made me happy. Then we asked Terry to come and help us teach a lesson to a guy named Ron and it was amazing. It was so neat to hear her teach and her testimony. She was pretty nervous but when she said,"I know in my heart that Joseph Smith did not lie, he really had that vision." It was beautiful. Arthur is going to be on parole until Aug. 25, 2010 but we committed him to be baptized on that day and he was really excited. Sure its almost a year away, but he has a strong testimony and he'll make it.
We met with Lee Holmer on Sunday and it went really well. The Spirit was strong and I asked him straight up why he hasn't been baptized, and he basically said it is because he is stubborn. We will continue to visit him and pray that he will have a mighty change of heart. I love him so much and see so much potential in him!!!! He needs to make a move! =)
This last Saturday we went down to Hamilton to the farmers market, which is kind of a big deal around here, and set up a booth. It was so fun. It reminded me of Temple Square, trying to get people to stop and talk. We had the usual, "oh no just baptize me when I'm dead" or "im baptist and already saved" but we also had some great conversations. More people thanked me for my smile than what I actually shared with them, but I guess that counts for something =/
Sister Smith and I sang in district meeting yesterday. It was scary but it went okay, haha. The Assistants came down for our meeting and it was switched to Wednesday so that is why Pday is today. Pday is actually changing to Monday so I'll be emailing you again in a few days!
Well I'm off to buy some groceries! I love you!!!! -Maeg
