Hey everyone! This has
been a great week! We saw some great miracles happen! So about a month ago we
were driving down the road and we saw a mom playing outside with her kids. Once
we got down the street a ways, we got the feeling that we needed to go back and
talk to her. So we did and she was awesome! Her name was Rachel. We got to know
her really well and she said that she would call us to do so service! Well we
hadn't heard anything from her in a really long time so we were going to go by
and see her again. That day she actually called us!! She said that her neighbor
needed some help and she remembered that we had offered to do some service. So
we went over and met her neighbor and helped her clean all of the blinds in her
house. To everyone who has never done that before it is pretty tough. Well
after hours of intense physical exertion we finished. Rachel came over towards
the end so she could talk with us. She is such an awesome lady! We sat and
talked with her for an hour or so and she told us about the struggles of raising
a family in the world and some of the personal things she was struggling with.
We talked about the church and how God wants strong happy families, especially
in the world today. She had some questions about church and at the end she said
her and her family were going to come this week! It was awesome! When we were
about to leave we asked if we could share a scripture with her and her
neighbor. Well there were about three families all outside in the neighborhood
and they came to listen. It was amazing to share a scripture about Christ with all
of these families gathered around to hear. I have such a strong testimony of
families. "God gave us families to help us become who he wants to
be." I am grateful for my family and for this gospel that blesses
families. The longer I have been out here the more I have come to realize how much
God wants us to be happy. We are here to be happy and families help us
accomplish that. Have a great week everyone!
