Hey Mums!!
So how was powell?? How's meg doing?? How's having her back?? Well I'm sure I'll hear it all in the email;) But as for me.. Ha I'm not going to lie last week after emailing was rough... I probably cried for two hours... Ahh why is this so hard haha I mean I know it's worth it and I know that I should not be anywhere else in the world right now, but it's hard. It's hard to focus and be happy when you know your family is all together again just having a fun time.. So last week I struggled.. But President gave me a blessing and things are going a lot better. I had a miracle happen this weekend and so you'll have to read about it in my weekly email. But Ah so nuts. I see miracles popping up from all over the place. I know that lord is really trying to help me get through this time with everyone coming home and what not. So I'm truly grateful. We have about 4 investigators right now, one of them my MTC teacher found? haha he's here for like an internship thing and found her so that was way cool. But yeah just trying to help people to baptism. It's really hard here for people to keep commitments but that's all good. My comp is good.. Not like sister Biorn.. But haha that's ok. She likes to be in control and do things her way. So i just kinda sit back and let her do her thing. I'm trying to be myself with her and stuff it's just kinda hard?? But yeah I'm always tired too so I"m trying to figure out how to deal with that haha and yeah:) THats whats going on with me:) How are you doing mums???? Anyways I hope you have a great week! Can't wait to hear megs talk! I bet it was great!! anyways love ya!!!
Hello Peeps!
Wow what a week!! Full of crazy stuff... But I think I want to get right to my story.. because it is a good one:) So yeah here it is!!
Me and Sister Parker tried as best we could to find meetings, but no one could meet with us. So our last option was.. contacting "teaching" on the streets:) But I figured while we did that we could try and find some less actives. So we head up to the top of blue line and spent all day up there trying to find people. Didn't really have much success, but we did our best. It was about time to go home and as we got on the metro I turned to this lady sitting next to me. She didn't want to talk to me.. So there was nothing I could really do? So I decided to close my eyes and wait for someone else to sit next to me. But no one did the entire 30 minutes I was on the metro. I kept opening and closing my eyes to see when my top was coming up and it finally came up. We were suppose to get off at the next stop. And right when I opened my eyes I see this lady starring at me right across from me. That's pretty normal here so I didn't think much of it. Then the lady next to me got up before I did. I thought to myself mmm I'll get up when we stop. So as I was sitting there the lady that was starring at me books it over to me and whispers in my ear, "I want to come to your church!" When she said that I was like wait what???? So then we started talking and I could tell she was kinda in a panic because she was getting off at the next stop, but the cool thing was is I was too:) So we got off and stood on the side of the metro to talk. She was asking me where are church was and what time it was at. Then I explain to her what I'm doing here and how we have a message we would like to share with her. She was like yes definitely!! So then I just asked why she wanted to talk to me? And she goes well you kept opening and closing your eyes and I tried to get your attention because the whole time I had this feeling I needed to talk to you. She was like, the lord was telling me to go talk to you! Ha can you believe that??? The whole time she was telling me this I was feeling the spirit so strong. And I knew she was feeling something as well!! Once we exchanged numbers and what not she walked off and as she walked off she just started bawling! I was in complete shock that that happened. No one ever comes up to you??? So then I called her the next day Saturday night to remind her about church. I called her twice and no answer.. So as you can imagine I was pretty upset! But I knew I could not lose faith in her. So I decided I would wait tell morning to call her again. The next day, Sunday, I called and still no answer. That whole morning I was praying over and over again that she would answer. And deep down I knew she would either show up at church or give us a call back. So I just continued to pray to HF. We had to go to a meeting and while we were in the meeting I was praying so hard. I had the phone in my hand just waiting and all of a sudden the phone rings!!! So I grab sister Parker and we book it out of the bishops office. I answer the phone and it's her:) She apologized about that she didn't answer and said she couldn't make it to church.. But I was just happy that she called to tell us. So we ended up setting up a day to meet during the week and what not! Afterwards I was jumping up and down with excitement!! Holy cow because I knew HF had answered my prayer!! So then we got to sacrament and after sacrament one of the slts runs up to me and says Ludmila is here!!!!! I was like WHAT?????? I guess she got off work early and booked it over her!!!!!!! Ahhh by then my heart was bursting with joy!!! Haha so after that we ended up grabbing her and having literally the most amazing lesson. To the point where both of us were bawling. Heavenly father answered my prayer. That is something I will never forget. I still don't believe that it happened haha But yeah:) That's my story for this week! We plan on meeting with her again this week so we will see how it goes:)
