-We found 5 new investigators this week
-One of our potential investigators, Fernando, has already been reading the Book of Mormon!
-I have been driving safely in the snow
-We found a potential investigator that Hermana Servin was never able to find in five months!
-We also found out that another potential investigator who moved is now living with one of our recent converts! Instant fellowshipper!
It has just been an awesome week. We are both exhausted, in a good way. We have been talking to so many awesome people, offering service (shoveling snow... still) and having some powerful lessons. The Lord really does know what he is doing. If it was my choice, I definitely could have waited another transfer before fully opening this area... maybe in a month there will be parking spaces that aren't full of snow... but the Lord knows that the work here can't wait! There are too many people waiting in darkness; there are people here ready to get baptized, and they need us, rain or snow!
More exciting moments of the week:
-Digging our way into church on Sunday...
-Figuring out how to get a car unstuck from the snow... (thank goodness for companions)
-Following a tiny, hand-drawn map to find a referral
-Eating in 10 minutes because we have to leave dinner appointments by 6:30 now (in our mission)
-Walking around doing missionary work with George (a recent convert and ward missionary!)
-Conducting music and saying the opening prayer at church because only about 20 people came...
Since this last Sunday was fast Sunday... cool scripture about fasting is D&C 59:13-14. I particularly love verse 14 because it gives us a nice proof:
fasting+prayer = rejoicing+prayer
fasting = rejoicing!
Just some "food" for thought!
