Tuesday we had 6 lessons, 2 happened.
We met a little girl named Jacklin a week ago in the parking lot and Sister Cunnhingham is awesome and gives the kids stickers! So Jacklin wanted us to come to their house and visit them, so we did last Tuesday! We knocked on her door and we talked to her a little bit as her mom stood there. Her mom didn't speak much English so Jacklin was translating! We asked if we could give Jacklin a children's Book of Mormon and she said yes! so we talked with Jacklin all the way to our car to get it and went back to her house and gave her mom a Spanish Book of Mormon! That was so cool! They accepted it so easily! we referred the Hermana missionaries over there to go talk to them! :) What a miracle children are and Sister C's idea of giving them stickers, inspired! We met with Brother Del Valley that night! What a powerful lesson it was! We Watched "The Savior Understands Me" video by Elder Holland! (If you haven't seen this video, it is a must watch! GO WATCH IT NOW!) We had some members join us and they helped out with brother Del Valley and Wanda so much! Wanda was actually feeling the spirit the most I think! She had been reading a good portion of the Book of Mormon as well, but hasn't been able to make it to a lot of lessons! We aren't exactly sure how willing brother Del Valley is, but Wanda is great and really felt it that night!
We taught a member family the 10 commandments (we are teaching their almost 8yr old so that she is ready for baptism!), Oh how much easier it is to teach people that already kind of know the commandments! Love the Hassel Family sooo much! :)
Wednesday: We had a lesson with our friend Tyler who is a young single adult and he had so many questions about standards! He is so confused by the world! I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have grown up knowing to keep me on the right path!!
Thursday: We had Zone Conference! Oh my goodness is President and Sister Caplin are inspired! I love them so much! They are such a blessing to this mission! I was able to see my only other companion left in the mission, Sister Topham. The Centreville sisters were also there and I had the blessing to know that my past areas are flourishing! The Bertoldos are doing great! I miss them but they are so strong and continue in such great ways with the gospel as their foundation! :)
We had a lesson with Brother Deadwyler that night! We weren't exactly planning on having that lesson because once again we had 3 of our lessons cancel.. :( but it was meant to happen, We were supposed to meet with Brother Deadwyler! He has so many things that run around in that head of his! He just needs to name some of those things "The Spirit!" :) He is so smart, (a little too smart for his own good) haha but he is on fire! He prayed such an earnest prayer that night, it was awesome! This is the lesson when I got the 70 mosquito bites from!
Saturday & Sunday there is so much within these 2 days! Sunday, yesterday we had an awesome lesson with our friends Colton, Benji, and Dakota! They are doing summer sales and heading back home this next week! We read Mosiah 18 and talk more about baptism and the importance of it! And those who desire to be baptized! They are going back home and being baptized! They are awesome and have had such good examples of friends that have helped them choose this path!
We found this referral that is Gold and we are seeing them again this week! They are so excited to learn more about God!
We had a lesson with the Black Family! The husband is not a member and the wife and daughter were just baptized! What a blessing it was that a member was able to come to that lesson! They had a daughter the same age as their daughter! The husband prayed at the end and said he would read the Book of Mormon and pray as a family! :) such miracles this week!
Every day there are so many miracles before us!
Moroni 7:27 "Wherefore, my beloved brethren, have miracles ceased because Christ hath ascended into heaven, and hath sat down on the right hand of God, to claim of the Father his rights of mercy which he hath upon the children of men?"
What do you think? Have they ceased?
"29 And because he hath done this, my beloved brethren, have miracles ceased? Behold I say unto you, Nay; neither have angels ceased to minister unto the children of men"
They have not.
Find miracles today!
Always Love,
Sister Chaffin
