received answers to our prayers as we acted in faith. We found 5 New
Investigators and 1 solid guy who wanted to learn more, he is a
Realtor and he looked a lot like my Dad when he was younger! So that was
kinda cool.
We attended a funeral service for a man named Bob Moorer and it was
the most amazing service... The Spirit was so strong! I loved it. We
sang 'How Great Thou Art' at the end and it was incredible! I want my
funeral service to be just like this one, I'll tell ya, it was good!
Kind of weird that it got me looking forward to my funeral, it was
THAT GOOD.
Here are a few cool experiences we had this week that I included in my
letter to President Gerber: "Hey President! This week was SO GOOD! We
had Zone Meeting of course and that went well, I felt good about it.
Then we went out and applied the things we learned such as being more
focused during finding and continually having a prayer in our hearts
to know what to say and where to go. We did that as much as we could
and we saw many tender mercies and mighty miracles. I know the Lord
participates in His work as much as we let Him! If we go out with our
own agenda then we're by ourselves! The Ypsilanti Ward is doing well
and the area is flourishing! We've been disappointed with some people
who have been on date but then have digressed but we have been finding
more and more people to teach so that has been great. An insight: I
received a lot of insights from my Patriarchal Blessing this week. I
looked for patterns, and certain words it used more than once. I was
able to highlight some of the many gifts that God has given me and
make plans to hone those skills. One of the miracles we saw this week:
We had about 2.5 hours to go out Finding on Sunday afternoon so we
went out and worked. We went to contact a referral we had been given
and she is so ready to be baptized!! We tried her the day before but
she wasn't home. She is on date now though and have an appointment set
up to go back. Then after that we prayed about where we should go to
work. We had already been Finding in the area during exchanges but we felt
that we should stay so we decided to do that.
We found a super solid potential who will be meeting with us at the
Church building on Wednesday to get a Church tour and stuff . Then later that
evening we were in a different place we had felt we should go and we met a lady
sitting out on her porch, she was very receptive and desired to learn more. I love
God's work! I know that we received these blessings only because we were
trying hard to thrust in our sickles with our might."
I know that there are people all around us who are ready to accept the
invitation to be baptized and confirmed members of Christ's Church on
the Earth, however, if we do not open our mouths and speak with them,
they will never receive that opportunity. Let us open our mouths and
declare the truthfulness of The Restoration of The Gospel of Jesus
Christ on the Earth today! There is no shame in declaring truth,
especially after having received a witness from the Holy Ghost that
these things are true. Time is going to fast, I love being a
missionary! Have a great week :)

We found a weight set in the closet, so we set it up and are ready to get ripped!
