Miracles happen every day. All we have to do is open our eyes.
This week was a GREAT week. So many miracles happened. I can testify to everyone who reads this that miracles happen every day. All we have to do is open our eyes. God blesses us so much in so many different ways and he is just waiting to give you even more blessings. He is just waiting to hear from you. Prayer is real. God answers prayers all the time. It might not be the way or in the time you want but He will answer them in the way that most will benefit you. But for kinda the breakdown of this week, we had probably the least amount of lessons we have had since I've been here. A bunch feel through which normally equals a bad week but it wasn't. We got to meet a lot of new people through contacting door to door and referrals we received. We set up some lessons with new people for this next week which is exciting. And the few lessons we had were really really good. We had another great lesson with the family from California. It is so cool to watch how Jesus Christ is changing their life for the good. Every time we meet with them they have so many great questions and are just so willing to learn and it makes being a missionary so worth it. Another highlight, not because it was fun but because I have to mention it, was the service project we helped with on Saturday. We started at 9 and finished at 4:30. We were prying up some concrete slabs at the entrance to a member's driveway so we could dig the roots out from underneath so the concrete can be level. Oh my gosh was it hard work. My hands and arms were killing me Saturday and Sunday from swinging the axe trying to break these massive roots up but it was satisfying seeing the finished project and it was nice getting to help this family. There is no way they would have ever finished if it wasn't for the work that we did along with a couple other missionaries. Saturday night we had a ward party to go to that was really fun. And then Sunday we got to go to a high council meeting with one of our investigators who is waiting from approval from them to be baptized. He got the approval which is super exciting. He has been waiting for a long time to get baptized. But that about wraps up this week. Today we have a full day P day because they don't want us out and about during trick or treat hours. So we are having a Halloween party and costume contest. That will be super fun. Also we get transfer calls this Saturday so that will be exciting. I've loved being able to serve with Elder Tyler but we are both hoping that we don't end up together another transfer so that we can stay friends and won't kill each other. Being with someone 24/7 with no breaks at all for three months is a little tough but he has taught me a lot and I've loved serving with him. That wraps this week up! Until next week! Have a happy Halloween!
