WEEK 65

This week has been a week of growth and miracles!
Heather Carstens and her kids came to church yesterday! It was a miracle! Afterwards her 17 year old son said that he wants to start taking the lessons. :) Miracle!!  It was incredible to see the ward members come and support her and her kids. That made all the difference in the world. There were some other less active members that came! A couple from Jamaica :) Oh my! They are so cute and we already love them to death. We are going over to their home this week and will hopefully be able to start teaching the husband. Another miracle!
We had interviews with president weston this week. It was seriously the best interview I have had yet! I love him and Sister Weston SOOO much! I know one of the reasons I am here is because they are here :) Every time interviews role around...there is always a theme. This time it was MEMBERS MEMBERS AND MEMBERS! :) He talked all about how members are the finders and we are the teachers...but first we need to help the members become finders. I have been thinking a lot about it. Would I rather see tons of baptisms with not much support from the ward? Or would I rather see a ward become a finding ward and see their friends be baptized and stay? I choose the second option! This ward has so much potential! We are praying to gain their trust and work hand in hand to do the Lords work! Building a foundation that will last is so much more worth it!
Sister Nelson is doing so great! She is such a hard working missionary and she really is here for the right reasons. I love her!
We have been going out with lots of sisters from our ward. We always see miracles when we are out with members. Its just how Heavenly Father wants it!
I got a letter from mom the other day and there was one part that I loved! She talked about how it doesn't matter what we want or who we want to be....all that matters is Heavenly Fathers will! I know that is true. We have been praying a lot more lately ( our goal is at least 30x a day!) because we want to do Heavenly Fathers will....not ours! This is His work and we need to council with Him in all our doings because He knows best. I am so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father to listens to every prayer and answers each one.
I love you all! Have an amazing week!
Love,
Sister Call
