Here is another fabulous email from our spectacular missionary! We love her to pieces!!
Love you all!! Thank you for all the support and love you send my way! Wow tell Keith and Lila thanks a ton! We really do have such a wonderful family and sometimes after I'm done visiting these families that don't have the gospel I realize more and more how blessed we really are! The gospel really is amazing!
This week I did get to see Elder Ballard!!! Wohooo shook his hand and everything! And in the pic I was like 3 people away! I felt so famous but there was like 250 of us missionaries because all of our mission got to go. Anywho, We heard from Elder Mayne and Elder Resime too and wow were they amazing as well! It was such a motivation to get going and save our brothers and sisters souls! I loved every second and my testimony has grown tremendously from it!!! The gospel is so true! They talked about being personal with prayer and say names and things while praying and that this is a marvelous work we are in, and we are chosen to bring others to Christ! They also mentioned that we need to use the members because they are the ones that know the people and will help in hastening the work! 
I was thinking about that and it's so true we go to strangers and tell them about this great message but it is not as powerful as one of their friends or family that have gotten to know them and love them share the message that we do have a loving Heavenly Father and he sent his son to die for us so that we are able to live with him someday! Like High School musical says we are "All in this together!" Disney knows what its talking about! So don't be shy to help hasten the work!  Anyway, When they bore their testimonies it was so powerful I reallly can't deny that this gospel is true!!!!! It is I know it!!! Christ did not just leave us on this earth without a way of returning and we are so blessed to have apostles and prophets tell us what we need to do! And I also want to thank you for letting me rely on all of your testimonies for awhile because I don't know what I would have done without it!
I think wow all my life I have had this gospel and I really did take it for granted because I see people everyday that don't have it and you can just tell the difference. I really can't thank you enough! Thank you for your prayers!!!
Also we are teaching this amazing 16 year old girl that is phenomenal! We committed her to being baptized November 23rd but she feels pressured a little so yesterday we fasted for her and stuff. And would really appreciate your prayers in her behalf!!! Her name's Lexi and we know everything will work out but would love the extra support! 
You are all the best and I wish you the best! Love you more than a fat kid loves cake!!!!
Love,
Sister Toomer
We love Sister Toomer!!!
