Family and Friends,
Howdy from York Pennsylvania!!! It's be a super fun week up here!! But the biggest miracle of the week, we made some bama connections!!
There is this returning member that the ward was talking about, and they had made the comment that he had lived in Georgia so I thought I could make the southern connection... I stalked him on Facebook and found him and it said that he was from Alabama and cha ching!!!
I sent him a message and said you from Alabama? And he video chatted me and we had a great discussion, we talked about Bama football a bit, Jim 'n Nick's, and he told me he had dreamland sauce!!! So the connections there, hopefully we can really help him!!!!
We also had a super cool miracle this past week! We felt prompted to call a member one night who wasn't in our schedule, but somethings fell through so we had a little bit of time! And it turns out that it was one of those perfect timing calls! He answered the phone and told us how much respect he had for us and told us that he would've normally rejected the call but he felt like he needed to talk to us! So we started talking and then he just opened up! He was sharing with us how he has this friend at work that he has started to share the gospel with but doesn't know what to do next and has a lot of fear about how to help her. And so we said we would study and pray for her by name everyday for the next week, and he said he wants us having contact with him every day to keep him accountable! So that's what we've been doing! And then we were about to close with a prayer and he shared even more about how his family is struggling with some very big and sad things and he asked for us to pray for him. And we offered a prayer and then after he said thank you thank you thank you, I love you both so very much.... we were all crying!
So there is work here to be done in York, my mission President promised me that if I work extremely hard and stay worthy of the blessings the Lord will reveal the reason I am here! So it's grind time!!
NO REGRETS!

2. Since I'm serving in a English area I got permission to videochat and practice my Spanish with any native Spanish speaker, so I get to call Rocker almost every single day which is so awesome!
