March 31- April 6th. YAY General Conference weekend!!!

Hello wonderful people:) 
What a weekend! 
Well...this week was a slow week. Both sister Dyson and I got ill haha! remember april fools? well I really did get sick...yay me?! haha Missionaries are not always protected from sickness...although it would be nice, not all the time lol 
so we were in for most of the week, however when we were able to go out and work....(and feeling up and better! and ready to go to work! )
We were able to have a lesson with Emily and Kylie, the two little girls being baptized in about 2 weeks...so close! they are getting excited! So are we! 
Right afterwards we had a lesson with their parents, and we taught them the restoration. They both agreed to a soft invitation to baptism!! No official date yet, most likely in the next lesson with them though...so that will be good! But they are ready to be closer to god and want to be baptized!! That is awesome! 
We were blessed for our efforts, and the Lord is helping us help his children by simply teaching his pure doctrine. How lucky are we?!
And, of course, we had General Conference!! It was SO good. I loved hearing the talks about gratitude and missionary work, and just loving others like we should. We had so many great things happen during that time, and Sister Dyson and I, we were able to receive some revelation for our investigators! yay!! that was another blessing we received. 
We were blessed to have 3 of our investigators to watch general conference with us as well as 5 of our LA's that we are working with watch it in their homes! They loved it! That made us so happy!! 
Pretty good week! I learned a lot about faith, and really finding strength in my testimony of Jesus Christ...and applying that in our lives DAILY! I also realized just how important our savior is, and the tremendous sacrifice he did for us...giving us hope to ALWAYS overcome our sins and to come closer with God. My love for the savior has increased dramatically and it has been such a blessing to share that with others we come in contact with, teach, and visit. 
I hope you all are doing alright, and that you were able to enjoy conference too! I loved it! 
Have a great week :) 
Until Next Time, 

Sister Nicole Matchett :)
