Week 63


This has really been a week full of miracles. We are working at the sites 3-4 days a week right now, and even though it's the non-busy season, it feels like a lot after proselyting full-time. But the Lord is really consecrating our efforts and filling our time with people who are prepared. On Monday, we ran into a man who was cashiering the next aisle over who wants to meet with missionaries. The next day, we got a call from a young lady who is investigating in Utah, and she referred her mom who lives in Canandaigua. The mom's name is Laura and I don't think I have seen someone so excited to see me since I've been a missionary! She has seen how it's changed her daughter and she sincerely wants to learn. Wednesday we had planned to be in Palmyra all day... to teach one of our investigators at the sites in between a shift we were working and a meeting up there that evening. The investigator cancelled, so we decided to try someone in our area. She wasn't home and we were a little frustrated because we were trying to use our miles well... but instead, we contacted a member referral who wants us to teach his family, and found a less-active family home (who is NEVER home), and they want us to prepare their son for baptism and help the rest of them come back to church. :) I know the Spirit was directing us to be able to find both of those people at the perfect time, and that same Spirit softened their hearts. It is so incredible to see almost visibly as hearts are softened by the Spirit.

That will need to be all for this week. Happy Valentines Day, all! <3
