Week - 37 Overland Park

Sorry about last week... AND I promise that I will try to make it up with this email!
The weeks are flying by and I hear it will just get faster and faster! 

This week has been more of a tougher one. I had to get a root canal done and that wasn't bad at all.  Everyone was telling me how awful it was and it wasn't that bad at all!  But what they did  tell me is that I would instantly feel relief.  BOY were they wrong!   Im going into the dentist today with a possible infection. Lets just say these past couple of days have been hard to work with this pain. AND it makes me so sad because I just wanna work and when your body wont let you... makes me really mad. :(

BUT we did see some amazing miracles this week.

JW I know you are all probably wondering what is going on with him.... well We haven't met with him again yet...... HE has read the Book of Mormon all the way to either. And that is a big no no with being a JW is that you apparently can't read the Book of Mormon.... but he and his friend did and aren't just reading they are studying it!  So we are just praying that they have a change of heart. We did talk to the member who's brother is the JW and we are setting a lesson up and we are going to bring President Love as a team up. 
SO we are really excited about that.  Oh his name is Abraham

Another miracle of this week is Christian. Sister Erickson and previous missionaries have been trying to get in contact with.  We were trying to figure out where the lord needed us. My companion suggested that we go see this less active member who has been struggling. But as we pulled up i felt like we needed to be somewhere else.  We pondered for a second and then I felt like we needed to go try this potential.  So we went and it was amazing! We caught her and her daughter at the perfect time.  We chatted with her about how she is looking for a church and a place for her daughter.  She has been turned away from many church's because of her daughters special needs.  As we talked with her I felt impressed to share a video with her about the primary.  So I followed it and it caught her attention.  She invited us back for Tuesday so that we could talk more. The spirit is there you just have to learn how to listen and tune into the still small voice and trust me I'm still figuring it out and I feel its going to be a life time of figuring it out.

Another miracle is Benny that we just ran a crossed....a coincidence I think? NOT.  But we were trying to find this other potential and we ended up finding him.  He is amazing we gave him a Book of Mormon and he sincerely wants to learn more.  We go see him this upcoming weekend:) so excited. 

The lord truly provides as we give everything we can. That is something that I have really learned this week is that even when you don't feel good.  As long as you give everything you can and you "try try try" the lord will provide. 

General Conference was amazing!  I felt like each talk was speaking right to me every time.  I love this gospel and I love my Savior! I love General Conference and the guidance that our loving Heavenly Father gives us.  HE is aware and HE does care and HE will protect you.  Im so excited to become more of a Shepard helping my Shepard in the vineyard.  I love the challenge that President Nelson gave about reading the Book of Mormon and highlighting all the references to Christ.  I have loved seeing my Book of Mormon light up as I find my Savior on every single page. 

A little bit about my companion! We were in the MTC together! SO you could say that we are having a blast being companions!  She is from Wyoming.  She has one of the strongest testimonies and I love serving hard each day with her. 

I love you all so much! and I'm so grateful for all you do for me with love and support!
