Dear Family!
It was another wonderful great GREAT week in Flowood Mississippi! I
say this every week...but Miracles are happening everyday in this area
and I am loving every minute of it. Also, I feel so grateful to be able
to serve here at this time.
Transfers were today and guess what! I'm staying in Flowood and
training a new amazing missionary named Sister Johnson. She is from
Murray, Utah. So.. I will be in Flowood for two more transfers. Bring it
on! I am so excited because things are really starting to look up and
we are really starting to build a great repore with the ward.
Shorter time today because of transfers..but! I do have two stories for you!
First... not a story but I played the piano for sacrament meeting
on Sunday.. yeah yeah read that again because its true..I SISTER URIE
played the piano for sacrament meeting two days ago. Crazy! They're
running low on people that can play..the ladies that have been filling
in
were out of town..and the sister who is called to play couldn't make it
again.. SO i filled it. crazy! but its true.
first real story.. we had a dinner appointment with the amazing
family were working with. We told them sister Mokalake was leaving (
went to slidell by the way) .. So they had us over for dinner. It was a
little crazy at first because all their family came in and out (
grandparents and such that were on their way leaving from visiting) then
after they left it settled down.. we got to talk about how the husband
has been reading and what he thought about what he read. The 3rd verse
of the first chapter of Nephi stood out to him most...awesome! because
he loved that Nephi said that it was true..he is continuing to read and
pray about it.. Also! We gave them a children's book of mormon stories
book..they said they would read it every night for bed time stories to
the kids. love love this family.. We are going to see them on Wednesday
and I will report more..
Second story.. is we found this new guy named Howard. Howard was
really nice but was drinking and smoking when we walked up to him and
his friend. He said we could leave the saviors peace and blessing.. So
we set up a return appointment. Also he wanted to know some more about
our message and how it was different from what he believed.. and we were
talking.. (I guess I've been come really awkward..because) he asked
me"You are a really great representative for the church..but what do
you do for fun..?" ( in other words you're too uptight and too about
business..do you ever have fun?! bahhaha.. I told him retail
therapy..but what do you say to that? honestly. But yes it was funny.
Things are great. things are wonderful. Everything is wonderful and
I love all the things I am learning and being able do. So many
blessings.
I love yall and hope you have a great week. Did you think to pray?
Do it! Heavenly Father Loves you and wants to hear from you! So get down
on your knees and tell him what you need.
Yall be good now.
