February 10, 2013



Hello everyone!

This week has been pretty awesome :) I have a fantastic miracle to share with you!! So on Saturday we had dinner scheduled with a member family, and they were going to drop some food off for us. We had scheduled to door-knock for an hour and then go home for dinner. But thirty minutes in, Sister Paongo said we should go visit some people in the area. I didn't think twice about it, because it was crazy hot and she wasn't feeling so awesome. She named two people, one an old woman and another couple that were former investigators. I told her she could pick which one we saw, and she picked the couple. We showed up at their home and they invited us in immediately. They were very happy to see us, and wanted to talk with us. About thirty minutes in, my companion told me we were leaving, but we were coming back. I thought, "That's not what we normally do," but just went along with it. When we got into the car, she told me what the woman had said when i was talking to the husband - that thirty minutes before we showed up, she had prayed to God for someone to show up at their door with food because they didn't have any food or money for food. So we went home, got the food that the ward members delivered, and brought it back to the couple. When we came in, the husband (who was the less-receptive one the last time they took the lessons) kept talking about how they should join the Mormon church and that he would be willing to give up tea and coffee for it. WOO!! So exciting! I feel so blessed to be a part of this work! What a blessing that the Lord allowed us to be a part of that experience!! The church is true, the Book of Mormon is the word of God, and we have the restored gospel on the earth again today. I know that God answers prayers and i know he loves us!! 

love,
Sister Rose
