You'll be happy to hear that the 40 DAY SUGAR FAST IS OV-ER!!! WE DID IT! It was really hard sometimes, but it taught me a lot. It makes me realize in a very small way what it feels like when we ask our friends to give up tea and coffee and alcohol and drugs and cigarettes. It's hard work, but you just feel better! However, both Sis. Smith and I have had our share of Dr. Pepper and chocolate!
It has been a super weird week. I've been sick and such, so that made things a little complicated. We still found new people to teach!
TINA PICKED HER OWN BAPTISM DATE AND SHE PICKED MARCH 16TH! Yay! We're so dang excited about that! She's so cute!
We met with Jeff and his family on Wednesday. It was super cool! We read 2 Nephi 2, which talks A LOT about where we come from and why we are here. They enjoyed it! We're meeting with them tonight!
Miracle: we felt like we needed to stop by this new investigator who went MIA. As soon as we knocked on the door, he told us he was about to do some not so great stuff. He said we were definitely sent by God and he needs to listen to us! We took advantage of the opportunity! We hope to see Steve soon!
Another miracle: we felt like going out for lunch (which we don't do often) and we were able to run into this woman who was really struggling. We read the Book of Mormon with her and it was awesome!
This week is going to be awesome! We were able to pick up another family and they are so cute! Praying they will keep listening!
I've been thinking about how much we are blessed and how much Heavenly Father is watching over us. Sis. Smith and I listened to a talk by Elder Jeffrey R Holland called "The Ministry of Angels." Y'all should listen to it sometime! Then, the next day I was reading in Alma 19:23
23 Now we see that Ammon could not be slain, for the Lord had said unto Mosiah, his father: I will spare him, and it shall be unto him according to thy faith—therefore, Mosiah trusted him unto the Lord.
I'm SO grateful for y'alls prayers! I'm so grateful for literal angels around us that look out for us.
Love y'all! Have an amazing week!
