Blessings from on High!

This week has been FILLED with miracles and blessings from on high, and the best part is that we are recognizing them and are being thankful for them. We are trying our best to thank God when we recognize these things happening even with a silent prayer and he is blessing us all the more for it.

God prepared someone for us to teach and help both physically and spiritually. 

 

Her name is Ka****ne  and she is WONDERFUL.  She has had a hard life but she has let it prepare and mold her and not make her bitter and sad. She has MS (multiple sclerosis), and a rare incurable neurological disorder, and has had multiple surgeries in the past few years, and bone spurs on her feet. She is a medical mess but still loves life and all the little blessings that she sees each day. She investigated the church about 8 years ago in California and was almost baptized, when she was diagnosed with MS and had to move closer to family back here in Iowa where she dropped off the map... Until Elder Allred and I meet her in the library one day and gave her our card and got her info. 

 

She called a couple of weeks ago and said that her power was turned off and that she was living at her mom's house in Cedar Rapids. So we waited and she finally got it back on and is now living in her house again. Elder Phelps and I went out on Tuesday and talked to her, and during that meeting we invited her to baptism and set a date to be baptized on May 3rd. The date is so far away because she is having the Bone Spurs removed via surgery tomorrow.

 

Ca***in has gone home for spring break this week . Her family is kind of against her joining the church and when we text-ed her on Sunday and said that she had kind of wished that she had never gone home at all. But she said that the rest she could talk about face to face with us,  and that we should meet soon. Please pray for her and maybe put her name on the temple prayer rolls.

 

Br*d has a job and is kind of busy right now so we haven't been able to meet. :(

Pa*is is doing well and all his work has him on a crazy schedule and he has a ton of deadlines to meet so it has been hard to get in with them for sure.

One of our Potential investigators dropped us this week and we were kind of sad but the Lord had something better in store for us.  As soon as we walked away we knocked on a door down the street and they talked to us!!! That is probably the 2nd coolest miracle that we have seen this week but nothing approaches the awesomeness of the Kathe miracle.

Well, I hope that this letter brightens your day a little,
