The temple last week was amazing! So nice to go to the house of the Lord and seek revelation for our ward, investigators and companionship. Always wonderful!
Transfers are Thursday . . . Valentines Day! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for all the info on the origin of Valentines Day; I actually never really knew where it came from. I'm not sure what will happen with transfers. If I stay here, I'll have been in this area for over nine months of my mission! We have 24 new missionaries arriving, eight of which are sisters!
We had a wonderful Sunday with four member-present lessons. We also found two new investigators this week. One (C.) is the wife of a prospective elder; we've been wanting to teach her for so long, so that is very exciting. The other (E.) is a former investigator that I met eight months ago. E. has come to church periodically in the time I've known her, and when she came to church yesterday, there was light in her eyes and she asked us to start teaching her! We're going by later today!
We were able to teach T. last night; we hadn't seen her for over a month. The Spirit was as thick as peanut butter and the member we brought with us was absolutely inspired! T. is coming to a chapel tour this Friday with her son and her son's girlfriend.
Ho. came to church for the third time! Yay! She still won't stay for the second or third hour, though. She needs to go to Sunday school and relief society -- she would love it! I really want her to be able to progress. Come on! You can do it! Trust the Spirit! We also taught Ha. twice this week, once to read the Book of Mormon with her and the other time to teach her the Ten Commandments.
I'm out of time! I love you all! Stay safe and remember that we always have an opportunity to share what we know with those around us, whether they are already members of the Church or not!
Here is my absolute favorite quote by Elder Richard G. Scott: "You become who you want to be by consistently being who you want to become."
