SO MUCH CANDY!
Ha, thank you so much (everyone) for
the Easter packages and cards and such! It totally made Easter fun and special
:) So thank you!!!
The
work in Bowie is going great! Cheryl is progressing nicely. She told us
yesterday that believes that Joseph Smith was a prophet!! YAY! She also
committed to watch Conference with a specific question in mind :) This is big
for her! Mandy is doing well also. She didn't make it to church on Sunday, but
that's okay. She has a desire to be baptized and I'm confident that it will
happen this transfer :) She needs to be sealed to her family! We also started
teaching a man named Scott :) Funny, right? (Mom's note: Her last baptism was a man named Scott) I think so. Anyway, he's the
sweetest, kindest, most charitable man I've ever met. He's sincere, too. He is
unsure about his relationship with God and Christ, and we told him we could
help him with that. So we are :) He will be on date by Saturday!! So excited!
But... those are all of our investigators. Everyone else moved or dropped us.
Not cool. So now we're working hard to find more people to teach. the warmer
weather should help us do that :) Yay spring! I love Bowie!!!
I'm happy to report that Sister
Lavrentyeva and I are working quite well together :) She's great! I just needed
to stop being so prideful and such... I still need to do that, haha. But it's
great! I really love being companions with her! She's wonderful!

OH! We finally have a 19 year old
Sister in our mission. Sister Owens from Mesa, Arizona. Cool, huh? We have tons
of 18 year old Elders, but they're not important ;)
Kate went through the temple!!!
(Mom's note: Kate Woolley is Kelsey's cousin. She'll be serving in the New York, Utica Mission) That's so exciting! Please tell her congratulations for me! And if she has any
questions about mission life or whatever, let me know! I want to help her in
some way :) Or, just tell her I love her and that I'm proud of her! The mission
is the best!!!
What else... We went to the city
today to see the cherry blossoms. They weren't out yet :( My one chance to see
the beautiful blossoms is gone. But hopefully they'll still be around at the
end of the month when we go to the Nationals Game.

Mmm... Oh, no more headaches. Thanks
for your concern :)
7 months this month. Weird, eh?
Oh, how about this story! So Monday,
we spent a good portion of the day baking cupcakes, decorating cupcakes, and
decorating the plates for cupcakes, and attaching scriptures to the plates. SO
much time! But it was worth it. Every single less active we took the cupcakes
to was home! So we got to contact all of those people and help them come closer
to Christ! It was so great :) I love being a missionary and witnessing little
miracles like this! The mission is the best.
General Conference is this
weekend!!! YAY!!!!! I'm so excited! I can't wait to hear everyone speak! It's
no small thing that we get to hear the Prophet of the Lord speak to us every 6
months. Now here comes your challenge. It's nothing new, but I've never done it
so I want you to do it with me! Form a specific question that you need an
answer to, pray about it, ponder it, take it to General Conference. I've been
promised that if we do this, we will receive the answer we need in one of the
sessions! How cool is that?? Who's in?

Anyway, this letter is really long
now... Haha. Mama should like that :) (Mom's note: Yup!! :D)
I love you all! Thank you so much
for the love and support! Stay strong and faithful!
<3 Sister Bullock
