Hello everyone!!
This week is going to be a little bit short because somehow I ran out of time faster than expected!! Things have been good this week!! Not much to update. It was one of those weeks where we worked our little butts off but didn't really have much to show for it but that's ok! We know we did our best and Heavenly Father will bless us for it!! :)
We have meeting a lot of really awesome people lately, the trick is just getting them to actually show up for our return appointments. It's been super great though, we are having a great time and I am excited to be able to keep meeting now people and helping as many people as we can.
Miracle of the Week
One miracle we had was on Friday night. It started pouring rain and neither of us wanted to go out tracting which was what we had on our plans unfortunately. We decided instead to try to talk to people in K-mart especially because I needed new shoes so we had an excuse. So we went and picked out a pair of shoes and tried to talk to a few people but it just kept getting awkward. We were about to give up and just head to our next appointment but we both saw this lady with 2 kids that we really wanted to talk to. We conveniently got in line right behind her and struck up a casual conversation.
She looked at our name tags and recognized us immediately. She informed us that her brothers are members and her nephew just got back from his mission to New Orleans. Her family has pretty much shunned them since they joined the church but she thinks that is absolutely ridiculous. We had a really great conversation with her and found out she actually lives in Dayton which is in the other mission but she frequently comes to Fairborn because this is where her mom lives.
We asked if we could get her phone number so we could call her and set up a time to meet this coming week and she said sure! She would love to learn more, she has a Book of Mormon and has had the missionaries over before but none of them have ever really taught her much! She was super duper nice and even gave us a hug before we had to leave to get to our appointment.
It was such an incredible miracle and I am so glad that we listened to the prompting from the Spirit to talk to her! Heavenly Father really is a part of this work and he will let us know exactly where he wants us to be and who we need to talk to if we will only listen and act on the promptings of the Spirit!!
This church is true and this work is truly the work of Salvation and the best work to be a part of! I love my Heavenly Father and my Savior Jesus Christ and I am so grateful for how much they are willing to teach me and help me learn each and every day!! I know that miracles can and will happen if we pray for them, trust in Heavenly Father and then just look for those miracles!!
