Hello!
Sorry,
I forgot to let you know P-day would be
on Tuesday this week because of transfers. It happens every 6 weeks. The good
news is I'm staying in Mittagong with Sister Sumaribos! We are so excited for
the possibilities this transfer!
This
past week, President Back instructed all of us to spend 3 hours a day finding,
which is a little more than we are used to. I will copy my letter to President
this week, as it sums up a lot of things that happened:
Dear President,
This week has been
miraculous as far as finding! As we have been doing it more, and been prayerful
about it, Heavenly Father has always made it a great use of our time. He ALWAYS
places someone in our path (or us in theirs) that is willing and needs to hear
our message. And as long as we open our mouths to everyone we can, He blesses
us to find them. It has been so cool to see! On one occasion, I knew I needed
to talk to a man sitting a few rows away on the train, but I didn't want to
because it was so quiet and I knew it would be awkward. Trusting the spirit, I
walked over to introduce myself and it turns out he is going through a
difficult time and is interested in hearing more of our message. Heavenly
Father always makes it okay and blesses us if we just trust him!
On another occasion, we
knocked on a woman's door who, we noticed through the window, was doing her
family history on FamilySearch as we knocked. Because of that connection, she
was willing to invite us back to hear our message. I know that these things are
not just coincidences, but The Lord hastening His work through us as we strive
to be worthy instruments. These are only a couple of the many miracles Sister
Sumaribos and I experienced this week.
I am so happy to be staying
in Mittagong with her again this transfer!
Good things are happening!
Our investigator, Patrice, came to church on Sunday with her mom who is a less
active member. She is doing so good. We are happy to have Elders Kentworthy and
Lammi in the branch with us. They seem like great missionaries and we know that
good changes will happen this transfer!
We love you and Sister Back
so much! Have a great week!
Love,
Sister Pace
Both
Elders Crowten and Tovi got transferred out and we have two new ones in the
branch who seem really solid, so that is exciting. Hopefully we can get the
branch excited about member missionary work! We had a member, Sister Molloy, come along to
our lesson with Patrice and Sister Snell on Wednesday and it made so much of a
good difference! Having a member there testifying with us and building a
friendship was so powerful. The Ragg's are still good, just been busy lately.
Hopefully we will see them tonight!
Overall,
things are going really good and I am happy! We are about to go hike a
waterfall I have been wanting to go to. WooHooo!
Love
you all Have a great week!
Love,
Sister
Pace
