Dear Family and Friends,
A Special shout out to the new family member, Oliver Green. He's the cutest baby out there and definitely rocks his mullet!
But oh my oh my what an amazing week it was. We may have seen some of the biggest miracles out here in Clarksville yet. They key........ get the members in on the lessons. It's something that has been stressed always in my mission, but that's how miracles happen.
We had such an amazing lesson with our friends Viviana and Raul this past week with a member couple, and we read out of 3 Nephi 11. We read up until verse 17 and told them to finish the chapter, but the lesson was so cool! The best part was at the end, Raul said, "I like to make a comment about hearing the voice 3 times, When Viviana started meeting with you guys, I was very uncomfortable. But just like these people I didn't hear the voice the first couple of times. But now I am so grateful that you are here teaching us and enlightening us!" We were both blown away! They also went to a ward party and loved it, and then they came to church and loved that! So we are heading in the right direction.
We had met ANN the woman this week! We knocked on this lady's door who has just a massive home (so it was pretty intimidating), but she's like the nicest person ever. She told us that she wants more in her life with Religion. She said that she's always gone to churches out of convenience or practicality, but never went because she was converted/had actual faith. So she really wanted us to stop by again and help her with that, but not just her, she wants us to teach all of her 8 kids as well, who just so happen to be above the age of 8! So big time miracles are in the works.
We also had some fun exchanges this past week. I love love love working in the rain, it keeps you on your toes. We spent most of the week down in Redneck Virginia (my part of town) and talked to a lot of cool people. Only got "shewed" away once!
The work of the Lord moves forward, so jump on and let's get it rolling even more!
