Hi! Okay, so guess what the crazy news of this week is?
WE ARE MOVING INTO A HOTEL.
Yes, you read that correctly. President Sorensen made arrangements for us to move into the Days Inn in Kent basically until I get transferred out of this area. So we will be doing that after we finish emailing. Crazy! We have a 67-inch flat screen TV that we are NOT to touch and a swimming pool that we are NOT to go in. Ha. But we also get continental breakfast EVERY morning! Oh baby. What an adventure Sister McAlister and I have ahead of ourselves. :)
Plus, they have a workout room which will be nice because I have definitely gained weight in Ravenna. Probably due to the fact that it’s really hard to exercise in a cubicle and that’s the only space we’ve had and also….Sister McAlister is a big fan of milkshakes so I’ve been having those more and we get homemade bread every Sunday from the Mars family and it’s SO GOOD! We are two spoiled sisters.

A couple things worth mentioning….
-Brother Fortson is honestly the most prepared person I have ever met. He wants to be prepared and worthy for his baptism. He understands the need for commandments and he’s just so willing to do what it takes to gain a testimony. He just GETS it! It’s so great. The other day he was like “Well, I’m happier and I have greater understanding…so I guess you could say I’m progressing.” Awwwwwww. I just LOVE that man. June 4th can’t come soon enough!
-JOHN JOHNSON HOME = AMAZINGGGGGGG!!!! Man, Friday was so good. We shadowed 3 tours that the senior couples gave and on the first tour, I had a personal health miracle. I don’t want to go into details and make light of sacred and spiritual things but it was a really special experience for me. On the fourth tour of the day, Sister Guenther invited us to try to give the tour with this one family. So we did. And it was GREAT! She helped us out where we needed it but for the most part, it was my companionship. So cool!

Alma 26 has been my chapter this week. I’m lovin’ it! This is what I want to say to my companion:
“Behold, I say unto you how great reason have we to rejoice; for could we have supposed when we started from the land of [the MTC] that God would have granted unto us such great blessings?....And this is the blessing which hath been bestowed upon us, that we have been made instruments in the hands of God to bring about this great work….Therefore, let us glory, yea, we will glory in the Lord; yea, we will rejoice, for our JOY is FULL; yea, we will praise our God forever. Behold who can glory too much in the Lord? Yeah, who can say too much of his great power, and of his mercy, and of his long-suffering towards the children of men? Behold, I say unto you, I cannot say the smallest part which I feel. (Alma 26:1, 3, 16)”
I love my mission. I do. I love the people of Ravenna, Ohio. I love President Sorensen and Elder Edman. I love Sister McAlister. I JUST LOVE MY LIFE. My joy is full.
Love,
Sister Webb
