MIRACLES!

MIRACLES! WHAT A WEEK, WHAT A WEEK! I love missionary work.
Well… last week we met a lot of people. We were contacting one day and met a girl named Sam. She had just graduated and was walking to her last class or something. She was so excited to meet us. We talked with her for a while and she set up an appointment for Tuesday!! We were so excited. Then we were contacting and knocked on this door we had tried before but asked us to come back. The daughter answered this time her name is Sue and we chatted with her for a while. She loves Utah and her sister lives there. She studying for a HUGE exam and so she said she would love to meet up with us in JULY. ooooh ppplleeeasseee. On Tuesday Sam came for her appointment and with her...was SUE. They are best friends and Sam told Sue she was coming to meet up with us and Sue said oh well I’ll just come with you. OF COURSE. So they are both loving the Book of Mormon and we are meeting them again tomorrow.
KAMILLE… we met with her last week and had a good appointment. She told us she feels like she isn't doing everything she should be because she slacked on her reading this week. She said she knows it’s all her fault and she needs to do her part. :) We also met with her yesterday for an emergency meeting. She is feeling a lot of pressure and she keeps having a "thought" she needs to talk to her family. We talked a lot about following promptings and about taking a step of faith...Kamille and Sister Reid and I are all fasting for her to find the strength, courage and words to use when she talks to her family.
BARBARA: is a less active that I met my first transfer. We only met with her a couple times until lately. We haven’t let her go...even when she says she can't meet we try real hard to get into their house and see her. It’s paid off. We met with her on Wednesday and had a really good lesson. She brought out her Book of Mormon and was excited to start reading it again. As soon as we said amen with the closing prayer she said...do you know how to bake? We talked about it and she asked us to come back on Sunday to help her learn how to bake cookies. :) We went back Sunday and she had all the ingredients out and the cups and bowls. She had cut up strawberries and had glasses for juice. She was SO excited to have us there. We made the cookies then had a lesson about faith from Alma 32. We drew it out and she was in heaven. She found things that we can do to "nourish our seed" such as having good friends. GOING TO CHURCH AND READING THE SCRIPTURES. All of which she said she is going to be working on. Then...last night...she came to FHE! :) She brought her brother. There are 4 YSA kids in that family. This is just the first step.
It was a very productive week and I feel so blessed. We have seen so much progress with all those we are working with. I always just think of it can't get any better than this...then bam it does.
I hope you had a wonderful week. Have a great holiday weekend.
Love you all.
Be good. Remember who you are. Live it.  Love it.
