This week has been really great! We have had two miracles happen!!! We got a new family, from Kosovo, that moved in our area. They speak Albanian. The parents speak no French but their children speak English and French which is nice. They are such a great family. Well I will tell you about the miracles now!!!
First Miracle: We were planning what to do and where to go for porting (tracting) for 3 hours. We prayed but didn't receive an immediate answer so I just sat in my chair just waiting and listening for an answer. Then I did! I was told to go to this one city, to this one house, and teach them about the Restoration. I was so shocked that I got a specific answer. So we did that and that is exactly what happened! I felt the spirit so strong. God does lead you if you truly want to do his work!!!
Second Miracle: We were thinking and praying about our amis. We really thought one of them and her son could be baptized on the 18th of January. We went to our meeting with them that night. We weren't sure though if it was possible because she is in a situation where she can't be baptized. We watched the Restoration video with her and we felt the spirit burning within us to commit to the 18th. Elder Miller writes the 18th on the table so I could see. I looked at him and nodded. Then I got to ask her to baptism!!! She was so touched and she even asked us if we really thought she was ready. She said yes and that she really wanted that. So her and her son are going to be baptized on the 18th!!! I love seeing the Gospel change peoples lives!!!
This week has been the best! I can tell God loves me so much. He makes me a better person every day. I know that if you strive your best to do his work and to have charity that he will reward you beyond your imagination!
I love you guys so much!!! You have no idea!!!
