Transfers

Hello everyone!

I don't have a ton of news but I have some stuff to share

Yesterday at church one of the members brought a family of friends along with them, which was a miracle. She attended all three hours which was even more of a miracle. During sacrament meeting, some member kids sat next to the nonmember kids and drew stuff and ate fruit snacks. When it came time for the sacrament they kind of settled down. Up to this point in our Sunday, I had not been having the greatest day of my mission. I didn't sleep very well the night before, forgot to shave, none of our investigators showed up, it was just that kind of day. The stress of a new transfer was weighing on me pretty badly. But anyway the sacrament came around and I saw the little member kids in front of me explaining the sacrament to their little nonmember friends. When it got to their mom, the little nonmembers taught their mom. It was a  little thing but it was cool to see and it made me feel better. 

Also yesterday we had some time in our day at the end to go knocking. My new comp isn't the biggest fan of knocking so I had to motivate him a little bit. I just felt like someone was waiting for us and Satan was working hard on my companion to keep us from getting there. I had an apartment complex in mind I drove there and the first door we knocked was a Spanish speaker who wanted to learn more. The next door we knocked was a really really sick English speaking lady who at first didn't want to learn more. But we took the time to get to know her and her beliefs and eventually she gave us some water bottles. We had to leave but we gave her the information to find the missionaries that would teach her and an invitation to check out mormon.org. It was just a little thing but a validation that the spirit really was guiding us and that we were needed in that apartment building.

I love you all and hope you have a good week
