Hello everyone!
Greetings from there-are-potholes-so-deep-here-I-think-they-might-reach-to-China-Colorado!
I am so happy right now, I feel like I should write this email in all caps... but that's tiring after a while because then it feels like I'm yelling at you!!! haha... But I am soooooo HAPPY. My week with Sister Grenfell was amazing. She is an incredible missionary! She has taught me so much already.... mostly we are trying to rely on the Lord and do the work in His way. It's been incredible. We have seen soo many miracles! I'll list a few!!!
1 - Sister Grenfell actually met one of our investigators, Janice, a few months ago and is way close with Janice's best friends who introduced her to the gospel.. coincidence? I think not.
2 - Olac said "I promise I will get baptized on the 19th of July!" what??? We saw him change his heart right in front of our eyes... amazing.
3 - Terry admitted that she doesn't think her church has all the truth and she finally has the real intent to pray about the Book of Mormon. Also she promised to come to church! First time ever.
4 - We found a new family of investigators because they were playing soccer outside and we played soccer with them for a few minutes then shared a message about how the Gospel blesses familes! #iknewsoccerwouldcomeinhandy #soccerinaskirt
I recognized that all of these miracles come from Heavenly Father. He is sooo good to me. I'm amazed that that goodness doesn't run out. No expiration date. And if he is blessing me so much, it doesn't mean that there aren't enough blessings in the blessing jar to bless you too. We each can have overflowing blessings in our lives because our Father is perfect, kind, loving, wise, and merciful. Sometimes He has to allow us to experience mortality... which equals the hard and bad things that are a part of this life. But I know that He is there with us ever step of the way. He won't ever allow a trial to try us that will break us down past repair. He can always help and strengthen and heal us. Always. I love my Heavenly Father. I hope He smiles a bit and chuckles at me when I just walk around smiling... I know I'm goofy, but I'm so happy. The Gospel is true. It is good.
In John 10:10 it says "... I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." He really means that.
I love you all and miss you all.... today is my 13 month mission birthday. wee woo. 5 more months and I'll be back home... buggin ya. I love you and pray for you!!! Keep the Faith!!!
Onward Christian Soldiers!
