Hey there!!

 

Wow you had a busy week! We did too! First off, I hope that you didn't worry so much when you didn't hear from me on Monday. I was talking to a member and I said that you might worry then she was all like I will call her and chat with her! She was sweet! Well our P-day was moved to today (Wednesday) Our mission president wanted us to go and tract on Monday to find families because mostly everyone was home. No luck.... We didn't find one family or new person to teach. Plus ____________dropped us.... But I do have a miracle!

We met a woman as we tried to contact a potential. Her name is _____________. She has been our miracle.  She smokes but seriously wants to stop. She takes care of her grandchildren ages 10-4. There are 5 of them. Sweet children, anyway, the parents of the kids wanted the kids for the summer but ___________ didn't know what day they would leave. We taught her the restoration on Friday and we stopped by to see her and give her the restoration DVD on Sunday, she didn't know we where coming. So when we got to her house on Sunday, it was when they were saying good bye because they where going to their parents. We asked ___________ if she wanted us to go, and she said that she wanted us to stay. Before the kids left, we left a blessing with them of peace and comfort. Tears and hugs were shared before the kids got in the car to leave. _____________was having a hard time with it, but she said that we were the last people she would have thought she would have seen that day, but she knew that God sent us to her at the moment she needed us. It was very touching and she plans to come to Church with us on Sunday! She is a wonderful woman and I know that she is such a great example to her grandchildren! She has not been committed to baptism yet but we plan on it in the next lesson :) Keep her in your prayers! Heavenly Father has soften her heart and it really needs to stay that way!

Lately I have felt very anxious. I think because transfers are next Wednesday and I don't want to leave! I want to stay in Cochran! haha! Who knew that Aleece would want to stay in a small town?!?! haha no but really! I have grown so attached to the people here. I mean It's extremely hard because __________is our ONLY investigator. But we have 7 less actives that I love SOOOO much!! And the members are great! But I have a feeling that I won't be here next transfer... :( This work is hard but so worth it!

Another thing this week is we are getting ready for new missionaries coming to Cochran next transfer. Elders...... They are going to have a set of Sisters and a set of Elders.... So this week me and Sister Snyder have been getting a lot of stuff ready for that. Finding a place to stay, dividing the area, dividing the ward, and on and on and on! Its exhausting! I didn't think that I would be doing stuff like this on my mission! haha! but it will be good I guess....

OH YEAH!!! So the other sisters (Sister McRae and Sister Dias) did companion splits with Sister Buckholz! So Sister McRae went with Sister Buckholz's companion and she came here with Sister dias! It was so great to have her here with us! But really weird because I had her and Sister Snyder here.... year someone say awkward... haha jk no it was great! 

Well its getting hot and humid here... HUMID!! It's disgusting!!! but everyone says that we haven't got to the worst of it.... YUCK!!!

 

Sounds like you have a good week. Yeah I would say go back to Pony Baseball next year. It's funny because when I read you letter about the umpire doing another inning I thought in my head of mom was probably climbing over the fence, then I kept reading and you said that you were about to! I Laughed so hard... I'm laughing now! haha I just know you too well mom ;)

 

No news on Visa. No one from my district in the MTC has it either :(

Yard work huh? Well I have to tell you something..... I was at a members home for dinner and

she is from Chili. She made us a sandwich covered in stuff. something in the sandwich..... a tomato.....

yes I ate a tomato..... nothing else to say. hahaha

So something that I read the other day that I have fallen in love with D&C 98:1-3

Read it!!!

I know that God hears our prayers and He has promised that He will answer them but there is a key

word in there.... did you catch it?

"Waiting Patiently" I have Faith that God will answer my prayers and yours but 

Faith in God INCLUDES Faith in His timing! so wait patiently because his answer is coming :)

Well that's all for now! I hope that You have a great week! Love you and miss you!
