Miracles have not ceased!!



Dear Everyone,

Hi!! Life is so great! God just never ceases to amaze me and the miracles He performs through us as missionaries and representatives of Jesus Christ.

Wednesday was great. After e-mailing we went finding and found 3 new investigators!! It was so wonderful and we are thankful God was able to soften these people's hearts and let us teach them. Then we had dinner with this less-active family. They are super sweet.

Thursday we went to the chiropractor. Sister Holm is now going too. So we are both feeling a ton better! We also went finding and had our correlation meeting with the W.'s. Sister Holm convinced their granddaughter (she's about 3) that she had too many toes. So she went and got her coat and shoes on so we could take her to go get them fixed, but Sister Holm said the magic words and it was fixed obviously, but nonetheless it was pretty funny.

Friday we had a really great day finding people. We tracted for most of the day, but it was so much fun. I literally have no idea what I would do if I didn't love my companion so much. We have way too much fun together and we love sharing the gospel more than anything. We didn't find any new investigators, but it was still an awesome day!

Saturday started off looking like it wasn't going to be the best day, but it slowly turned around. We were able to have some really great conversations with people, all because of God's timing. It was so amazing. We were driving back from one of our investigator's houses to go to another lesson, but on our way back into town, we passed this man walking on the side of the road, and the Spirit told me we needed to talk to him. I ignored it and kept driving. Then the Spirit basically made me flip the car around and we went back, parked the car, and basically ran so we could talk to him. It was so incredible. He said he had read the Book of Mormon before and it says "And it came to pass" over 1,200 times in it haha we talked with him for about 20 minutes, then gave him our card and went on our way. His name was Rxx and was super nice. Then we had dinner with a part member family in our Branch, the N.'s. They are the best. They have 2 little girls who are so darling and they help me so I don't miss all my little cousins as much.

Sunday was a pretty good day. We found a new investigator named Rxxxxx. We had talked to him about a month before and could never get ahold of him, but then we ran into him again on the street! So that was a miracle!

Monday was great. We did our studies and everything, then go to grab the phone so we can head out the door to get our shopping done and everything, and we see we have a missed call and a voicemail on the phone from some random number. We listen to the voicemail and IT'S RXX!!! Calling to tell us he wants to meet with us! So we have an appointment with him on Friday and we are so stoked about it!! We had had a ton of investigators drop us this past week too so that made us feel so good to know that because we followed the Spirit and turned the car around to go and talk to him that we will be able to teach him. I am so thankful for that!!!(:

I know that God loves us all so much and that He wants what is best for us! Thank you all for being so supportive(: I love you all! Have a great week!(:

Love, Sister Brittany Larsen(:
