Hot Hot Summer!!

Sister Toomer is melting! Here are some of her latest:
Hey!
Man so this week we were literally melting popsicles it has been in the 100s since like last week but good news its going back down. We have great members that provide waters and even our investigators do as well. So no worries I'm good. This week was great we had a lot of lessons and there is this wonderful lady named Angela who is getting baptized Aug 20th and she is amazing! She goes beyond studying the scriptures I love it she is an example of feasting upon the word. She inspires me to want to be better at my studies! We are no longer in a trio:( Sister Pugh left Wednesday for Wenatchee. Sister Camplese has to put up with me and she does she is so amazing! She is a great example to me as well. I love this work and I appreciate all your motivation and inspiring letters. That was way fun to read over Travis's farewell talk he's pretty funny but he hasn't emailed me back yet...already to busy that's good :) Well I love you all and hope you have a great week! Don't forget to SMILE it's in the scriptures (Spiritually Minded Is Life Eternal) your homework is to find it;) xoxo
Love,
Sister Toomer

Hey, I am realizing more and more that I am just the Lord's instrument right now. It's the best! I love you all so much! This week was amazing we had tons of lessons and people were really open to hear the gospel! Brandon is finally getting baptized the 9th of Aug!!! That's the guy that got married. Then Angela is going to get baptized the 20th if she quits drinking Coffee. We had exchanges on Friday so I went to another Sisters area for the day and another Sister was with Sister Camplese and they just sparked our area up! We got tons of new investigators okay maybe like 2 but still that's 2 more souls we are trying to save;) And when I was in the other area we had a great day sharing what we know! I really do love this gospel! I know it's true with all my heart! Thank you for being so supportive!!! I'm praying for you mom! Sorry you got hurt you are a trooper! Love you all so much!
Love,
Sister Toomer

So that's super exciting and my signature is on their marriage license!!! Oh ya crazy things happen on the mish;) but I'm still loving it and Sister Camplese is phenominal! I got sick on thursday and couldn't really get away from a toilet so she dropped me off at a members while she did the work for the day with a member! Aww life saver really!!!

We love Sister Toomer!

Here are some of her most recent letter:
Hey!
So hears the scoop. I got a great sister missionary that came pretty much pre-trained! Her name is Sister Camplese and she is from California Orange County. She is a convert to the church about a year and a half so she will  be on her mission longer than she is a member of the church! I love her! None of her family is LDS but they are now taking the missionary discussions so pray hard for them:) She's pretty tall about like 6ft. Everybody here loves her already and it's good! Haha mom don't worry about my feet they are still good for getting around. Plus I like a walking area then I don't feel like I'm going to exploed with how much the members feed us. Cuz yesterday I had two cinnamon rolls. Yikes! I know I know but this week we are going to start running in the mornings with some sweet members and maybe playing ball with some investigators :) Oh ya living the life! I love you all soo much and I can't believe how fast time is going. Wow Landon's already home. How's he doing? How did his mission go? Anyway I can't believe all these little guys are going on missions that's so cool! You'll have so many blessings you'll have no idea what to do with them;) jk share them with others! And I know you are I have the best family in the whole wide world! I love you more than anything!!! So good news one of our investigators are getting married so that he can be baptized! Miracles are happening I love it!!! Have a good week! And good luck with the optimism I'll have to follow-up with ya later;) Love ya fam!
Love,
Sister Toomer



  Here's another, her most recent:
What a great day to be a missionary! The Lord's work is the BEST!!! So this week we had 5 investigators come to church thanks to the members and of course the spirit!!! Also we had a RS social on Thursday and 2investigators came to that! And one of investigators that has been iffy about lessons txt us to meet with us! Wow it was awesome! I'm just soaking it in while I can :) Missions are such a roller coaster but I love them and my companion and I are just clicking it's great! She is such a great example for me and I love her will power it keeps me going! I'm super duper excited for Travio to receive his endowments and for him to leave soon! It's so great!! As you can tell I'm loving life and am enjoying every minute thank you for the encouragement and love! You truly are the best family I could ever ask for!!!
Love,
Sister Toomer
