This was another wonderful week in the service of our Savior! I love being a missionary!
Hermana Davis and I decided that we needed to spend a good portion of our week finding new investigators and so we did! We probably biked a good 30 miles this week, if not more, exploring our area and searching! We've found so many wonderful potential investigators and we're hoping that they can continue to desire to change and let the Atonement take full effect in their lives!
We had a really awesome miracle this week! So earlier this week, around Tuesday, we were riding our bikes and we saw this lady putting water in her blue water containers outside ... so we had the thought to talk to her. Well, we did, and she knew who we were and she mentioned she had talked to missionaries previously. Well, she was a little standoffish because the missionaries that had visited with her earlier kept calling and calling and she got overwhelmed so she never answered. We felt that we shouldn't be too pushy with her, so we just got her number and left her with a pass-along card with a picture of the Savior on the front of it. She then says, "Oh, I have that card." And she pulls a withered, old, wrinkled card out of her visor in her car and she said that whenever she was lonely, she would call the number and someone would talk to her! Well, that was a miracle. So we kept thinking about her during the week and then we got a call from her the other day asking where the church was. We gave her directions and at stake conference on Sunday, she calls and she was AT THE CHURCH! She came and she loved it! They spoke a lot about the Sacrament and she asked me what it was and when she could take it! We told her that it would be next week and we could tell she wanted to come! We also introduced so many of our members to her and she felt so welcomed! Pray that she'll let us come and teach her! We gave her a Book of Mormon, too, so we're hoping that she reads it!
Russhine is still doing really well! We had an awesome lesson on Tuesday with her about prophets and reading the scriptures. She's still a little hesitant to be baptized, but she keeps saying that she knows it's something she needs to do. She's just scared. Pray she'll have the confidence to take that step. She is soooo ready and we just love her so much! Her example has changed me and I can see the Atonement starting to play a part in her life. She's just one of the best people I've ever met.
Other than that, we are doing so awesome! Loving the work and working, working, working! I hope all is well where you are!
Keep putting God first. That's the only way to be happy!
