I hope you all had an awesome Friday the 13th this last week (haha). I hope nothing unlucky happened to you guys; I think it all fell my way that day (haha).
We had some awesome miracles happen this week that just reconfirmed how true this church is to me. Last week we were 'dooring' random less-active members to try and get to know them, and one totally gave us her number and invited us to come back! So we did, and we seriously had the best appointment like ever. She has such a testimony that God is there and that she needs Him, and just needs help to jump back into the church. It was such a cool lesson. It was one where we had one lesson planned, and then the Spirit took us in a completely different direction. It was amazing!
Also, as you can see from the pictures, we got to carve pumpkins! It was a little past Halloween, but it was still great :) If you can't tell what I carved it ... was supposed to be a minion (haha).
Something else that was really cool was that on Sunday, one of our more interesting investigators brought two of his sisters to church, and they are so legit :) They were so sweet and wonderful. There was also an investigator from the Elders that spoke Persian and very very little German and English, and they were able to translate for him. It was a miracle that they were both at church for the first time on the exact same day. I love seeing how God works miracles and we just get to see them.
Well, I will keep this short because I have a bit of a head cold ... again (haha). Struggles of being a missionary (lol) But, I found a great quote in my studies that I would like to share:
"When we are busy serving the church, we can expect God to bless us with miracles when we go and do the things He commands (see 1 Nephi 3:7). In this equation God's role is constant, not a variable. He always keeps His promises. The only variable is whether we have the faith to commit, obey, and expect miracles." -Elder Clayton M. Christensen.
I hope you all have a fantastic week! Take care!
