Hey hey hey hey!!!! I hope y'all had as marvelous of a week as I did! We met a bunch of new friends this week and even reached out to some old ones again. (One of them had blocked us on Facebook, so we just wrote him a snail mail letter instead). I know that the Lord loves these people because I sure do!!!
We also had zone conference this week! Zone conference is always fantabulisticly marvelous. And Sister Foster and I once again earned a free jar of nutella for having one of the two cleanest cars (weird flex but okay). But on a more spiritual note, I learned some pretty amazing things at zone conference. I had this realization (more like revelation) that I have been carried through the past couple of months. There have been challenges and obstacles that normally would be causing me so much turbulence, but looking back at it all, I realized/the Lord showed me that He had strengthened me, even that I could not feel the burdens upon my back. Like the people in Mosiah 24!! I also connected this miracle with your prayers. Thank you for praying for me and for every missionary out there! It does make a difference and I felt it this week. My testimony of prayer has strengthened tremendously from this experience. I know that if your prayers are making a significant difference in my life, then my prayers will also make a significant difference in the lives of the people we love and teach.
I know that the Lord loves His children! I know that God wants His children back and I'm doing everything I can to help Him!!
I love you all, I love this work, (and as much as I wanted to be on that space shuttle this weekend, I would not want to be doing any other work than the one I'm doing now, there is nothing greater!!) I love the Lord!
