Bay City, MI May 28.2018 (Angel sister, Shawnee's birthday)

Hello!! Happy Memorial Day!!

Wow this past week has been crazy!! So much has happened it's insane! The weather is SOOOO hot right now. It's insane! Marnie did get baptized on Saturday! We are so happy for her! Before she got immersed though, her boyfriend Joe and her were in the font and while he was saying the baptismal prayer, she started to cry! It was such a sweet and tender moment. There is a huge change in her since we first met with her up until the day she got baptized and the day after that when she got the gift of the Holy Ghost. Being able to see the change that the gospel brings to someone's life first hand is incredible! I can't even describe the way it feels. We actually had a lesson this morning as well which was pretty cool. His name is Brian. We were able to put him on date for June 30. The last Saturday of the month. He is learning everything so quickly it's insane! He's such a great guy. Shawnda is supposed to be getting baptized this Saturday but she hasn't been talking to us so we are guessing that it's probably not happening. She just gets stuck on the Law of Chastity. So sad. We are really hoping to get in contact with her again sometime soon. Hopefully we do!! Tasha is on date for June 16. We are beyond excited for her. She said that if she was gonna get baptized though, she needed rides to church, she needed to start coming to church, and that we needed to start all the lessons over again so that she actually understands things. So cool!! The gospel is really changing her life. You can just see it. She has such a strong testimony of prayer. Other than all that, our week has been pretty good. We did a lot of service this week, had a lot of weird moments (nothing new though ðŸ˜…), but we had a lot of miracles as well. This gospel is so true! Missionary work is hard and it is scary. But what would life be like without those things? Christ himself was faced with hard times. Yet he kept going. He kept moving forward. He kept sharing the good news. Invite a friend to church! Share your testimony on social media. There are so many ways to share the gospel. So share away!!! I love you all and am so proud of all of you!!

Love, 
Sister Summer Freeman ðŸ˜ŠðŸ’œ

My favorite dogs here in Bay City all live in the same house!! Meet Elvis the hound, corki the corgi, and penny the corgi. They are so dang cute!! More pics of Elvis though cause she is my favorite! Her owner said that after my mission I get to take her home. Don't worry mom, she's neutered ðŸ˜‰ðŸ¤£ the last picture was taken after we left yesterday. Elvis was sad!

NOTE FROM THE MOMMA:  It's terrible when your missionary forgets to bring her camera so she can't upload her pictures that she took of her new area and apartment...How is a momma's heart supposed to be satisfied with NO DETAILS!! Sister Freeman's new address 1155 N. Chipman Apt. #1 Owosso, MI 48867 Owosso is great! I love it here! Sister King and I get along so well! Her and I actually got food poisoning yesterday though so that wasn't very fun. But hey, we're better now! We have an investigator on date for  February 10. Her name is Jolee.  We picked up a new investigator the day that I got to Owosso which was awesome! We have been doing lots of door knocking, which is fine with me. I have definitely gotten out of my comfort zone a lot and been able to talk to people about the gospel nonstop on doorsteps or while we are walking on the sidewalk and they are also walking on the sidewalk. I love sharing the gospel everyday! It makes me so so happy!! The ...

Let me tell you about our day.... Summer has been packing all day.  We got everything packed and the luggage weighed 6 pounds over between the two pieces.  We took things out like the winter coat and 3 t-shirts, 5-10 pairs of socks and 3 undershirts.  The luggage still weighs 6 pounds over.  But in the process of taking things out we found this shirt... You know we should take a beer advertisement shirt on our mission because "we have no clue that lucky is a beer". (The back story to owning this shirt.  I think it was Lex 8th grade and she wanted to where something green for St. Patty's day.  I found this shirt cheap at Walmart.  She went off to school with the green shirt.  About 10 o'clock, I get a phone call from the principal and I'm asked if I know Lex is wearing a beer shirt.  MMMMM.....no.  After getting his laughter under control, the principal told me that Lucky is a beer and he thought that I probably didn't know it was a ...
