This
week was super amazing but also a bit difficult. We are in the process of
having to decide what families we will continue with. I think the hardest part
of being a missionary is having to leave people in the area book and hope the missionaries
in the future will find them. But we have to have faith and do our part to find
those that are ready to progress and commit to making the covenants of baptism.
We found a couple last week who went to church with us and her problem is that
she suffers from depression. But there was a talk in conference that is perfect
and exactly what she needs to hear. It’s truly amazing how the lord’s servants
can receive revelation to bless the lives of Gods children. In between conference
Sunday we went to bring people but all our families fell through. I received a
prompting to go to a family that we cut long ago that wanted nothing more...
after testifying with power and authority I was sure they would come... but
only they didn’t. While walked back feeling defeated wondering why I had the
prompting we saw a man lying on the ground having serious pains. The people
around him asked us to help him. We were in a hurry to return on time and I
offered to give him a blessing. I felt inspired to say that he would be healed
by his faith and able to make it home. After we helped him up and he thanked us
and god and went on his way. I realized that we need to really listen to the
spirit and not question the results because God is over everything and knows
all. I have sooo much learning left to do it blows my mind. I’m worried two
years isn’t enough time for a mission. I’m waiting for Pres. Nelson to say that
missions will now be 3 years next conference... (Don’t have a heart attack mom)
But I love and miss
you all and hope everything continues to go well for you. I pray for you all
every day and am thankful for the continued prayers of strength and
encouragement. They really make a difference!
Love you all!
