The pictures of your ride in Arizona look beautiful. I'm glad you and Andre
were able to have another amazing trip together and with all the men.
You all look fabulous!
Well this week we didn't have any
huge miracles but we definitely learned a lot of lessons for our selves.
One miracle we did have was dooring into one of our ward members'
daughters. I have met her already a few times before and so she knew who
we were but she let us in and actually has a lot of interest. She was
so open and friendly and told us if there were more people in the world
of our faith it would be a better place. AMEN! Sister Tidwell and I
haven't been able to bear our testimonies lots or teach a lot of random
people because they shut the doors right after we say ''church''. With our ward members' daughter however, we were able to teach her about the Book of Mormon and share our testimonies of it. It was so amazing to
hear her read from Moroni 10:3-5, it strengthened my testimony. She
wouldn't set up a new date with us but she said she would tell her mother, our ward member, when we could meet again. It was just a really great Spirit
meeting with her.
On Wednesday we had our ward missionary correlation meeting
called GMKo in German. Our Ward Mission Leader can be a tough person to
talk to but we have been working well together for the past little
while. Anyways at the end of our meeting we left him with a little
lesson from a quote Elder Busche said to a group at BYU in 1996. He said
when its hard to love someone look them in the eyes and see their
potential and divine nature as children of Heavenly Father. Well just as
we had explained that, he went on to tell me how horrible my German is
and how no one can understand me. And the thought just came into my head to
look into his eyes and see his potential as a child of God. Sometimes
it is really hard to love him but this GMKo taught me the principle I
was trying to teach. Afterwards, Sister Tidwell said that we have to be
willing to be taught by the spirit as we teach by the spirit. I think
that is a very true principle.
We have a lot of finding time this week and a lot of chances to
see little miracles. We're excited! Thanks for all your love and support Dad. I hope you have a great week and are able to get a little more
rested from your travels. Love you!
