Hannah 6-10-13

Blue text was added by Hannah's mom. 
Hannah had a really rough week with homesickness last week. This week she is doing much better. 

She only gets fed by ward members about twice a week, so she is starting to cook. If you have ANY quick and nutritious recipes she would love to have them. If you send them to me I will email them all together and print and mail them for her. 

She also mentioned that the weather is warming up. She is mostly warm now. I also attached a picture her Mission President's wife posted on Facebook. Dear Friends and Family, This week has definitely been one to remember! I am doing better, for those of you wondering, it is still a uphill battle though. This week has been great. I got to see my mission president and his wife, we have been working with tons of less actives, and we committed 10 PEOPLE to baptism! (Nyweka from last week's letter has "so many kids we lost count". Kendra, a 27 year old investigator has 3 kids) Sister Elkins and I are feeling super blessed that the Lord trusts us this much! I have gotten so close with the ward members, but especially the Young Women. I am truly amazed at these girls and how valiant they are. These girls are so willing to work with our less actives and come to teaching appointments with us. This week in Church, I gave my first talk on Joshua and Jericho. It was amazing to because Sister Cross, one of the less actives we have been working with, went to Church for the first time in 2 years yesterday! It was such a huge win! We also had a random man walk in and told us he wanted to find out more about the Church. He went to sacrament and to gospel principles (or Sunday school) where Sister Elkins was teaching. By the end of class, he was tearing up and thanked us both so much for the lesson and talk we gave. As far as I know, he is still looking into the Church. We have been so blessed, I can't even express how amazing this feel to serve so many people! Love y'all and miss y'all like nuts! -Sister Heninger P.S. Thanks for all the prayers and I know that they are always accepted here :) P.S.S. I have taken so many pictures but I have no flash drive so NEXT WEEK I SHOULD HAVE PICTURES of me and all my investigators/less actives!

 PS Hannah is now using/learning Spanish. They have an investigator that speaks only Spanish! Now she is busting herself to learn Spanish. Good thing she worked at McDonalds! hahaha If you have any tips to learning the language she'd love to hear them.
