"I'm gonna call you hyena"


Hello friends!

 So last Monday, we had the best gyros this side of the Atlantic at a Greek Monastery Bakery. It was a blast takin a little trip to Greece for the afternoon :) the bees just loved us lol. 

 We visited with Katie this week who was baptized a little over a year ago. We watched Elder Taniela B. Wakolos talk from General Conference "Saving Ordinances Will Bring Us Marvelous Light". It was way impactful. She was able to relate it to her and her husband and the way that they are growing together and then we talked to her boys about reading the scriptures every day and showed them the app so they could. Later she texted us "Hey ladies! I just had to share with you thank you so much for recommending the Bible app... We are on our way to the Dalles to go grocery shopping and Evan brought the phone with him and he is reading to Landon... So so cute 😍🙌 he is so excited about it he was like "mom this is so cool they have quizzes, games, the Bible, you can do so much stuff on here!" 😄" Very cute. Its way cool to see kids eating it up. 

 Peg got baptized on Wednesday! I didn't get to go because we wouldn't have been home on time coming back from Ephrata, but I got to skype in. I didn't realize how excited I was for her until I started bawling lol. so much emotion in such little time. Thank goodness for technology so I could be a part of that. 

 We had interviews with President Jackman on Saturday. He and his wife are amazing people and they are doing so much good for this mission. Fun fact: President Jackman grew up with the mission president of the Salem Oregon mission, weird huh?

 Also,.. *drumroll please* WES CAME TOP CHURCH YESTERDAY!! and he already knew some people. He really liked it and had to leave early but he didn't want to :) love that kid. 

 I love y'all lots!!
Sister Shuldberg

 p.s. quote I heard this morning "I have so much to be grateful for, that it would be disrespectful to God if I wasn't happy" words to live by. That's all, folks.

"Love God with all your heart.."

Hi Friends! It has been a week. dang.  We got to do a whole lot of service this week which was really fun. It's kinda wonderful to get to think all about someone else even for just an hour. I do a heck of a lot of thinking in a day, so I need a break sometimes and service is the way to do it. The great thing is, if you're doing it right, more than just the service projects feel like service, practically all we do as missionaries is serve, so I get to think about others all the time! yay! One of the things we got to do was go brush horses at Hart Ranch. Sue Hart, the owner, is super sweet and she gave us those gloves as a Christmas gift and we're going back this week to help her put up all her Christmas stuff cause she's getting kinda old, plus we love to do that.  I'm coming up on 3 months and since Sister Zollinger is very likely going to be leaving Terrace Heights at the end of this transfer, I've been thinking a lot about what I've learne...

HI Friends! So, no I'm not calling you all girls, ANA WAS BAPTIZED ON SATURDAY! and Sister Zollinger and I spent like 20 minutes trying to imitate how she says "girls" cause she's from the Dominican Republic and it sounds great. That's the way she always greets us :) Love her. Her baptism was absolutely wonderful. the Spirit was so strong and we were all crying, and grinning and ahhh it was so powerful.  Some weird things have happened this week. Tuesday at 12:30AM I woke up and started planning for the day, I woke Sister Zollinger and was so urgent about getting it done until she was like "WE'LL PLAN AT 6:30 WHEN WE USUALLY PLAN". yup.
