We Had An Amazing Miracle Yesterday

September 8, 2014




My new companion is Elder Bettilyon, he is from Salt Lake City. I just shipped my bike this morning. I just ended up going to the UPS store, they were the cheapest I could find. It was $98. I tried to find the cheaper but I couldn't. I even took my bike almost all the way apart to fit it in a smaller box. It should get there next Monday. Please DO NOT assemble it. Leave it in the box till I get home, I will take care of it. I did get Kiley's card, it was really funny. The address does work now, it must have been the ZIP code, sorry.

We had an amazing miracle yesterday. Elder Tucker and I had met a man named Stephen two weeks ago outside his house taking his trash cans to the curb. At first he threw out all the normal misconceptions and then invited us to share briefly our message. After we shared the restoration he told us that he believed us and asked if he could come to church in two weeks (he had work that Sunday). So we said yes and went on our way. We called him this past Saturday to confirm he would still be there and he said that he would. He came and had a wonderful time! He said that he felt very welcome and told many of the members that he would see them all next week. As church was ending we set up a return appointment and told us that he really enjoyed it all and said it felt genuine and from the heart. He also said he had some questions he would ask us on Tuesday. This man is so prepared!

This transfer will go by so quick, not only because it is short, but also because it is so busy. We planned everything we needed to do for the zone this week and in order to fit everything in we have to do 2 exchanges a week, plus we have a zone conference one week, Mission Leadership Council and Zone meeting the next, and then I finish it all off with my last weekend being conference. On top of all of that we are so busy that we are struggling finding time to make appointments. I am so glad to be busy, there is no way I can't even think about letting up right now.

That's about it, love ya.
