We had MLC (mission leadership counsel) this week and Sister Hendrickson talked about faith and miracles! My favorite topic!! We read in Ether 12 and Hebrews 11 about the examples we see from the scriptures and talked about how we can apply that faith in our own lives and in the lives of our friends. When we got to reteach our zone about this topic, I loved focusing on what we can do to be more faithful as disciples of Jesus Christ. The Prophet asked us to have faith to move mountains and Sister Hendrickson left us with a bomb quote! She said, "We always tell God to move our mountains, but it's about time we tell our mountains about our God!" Mic drop right there! Go read Ether chapter 12! It's my absolute favorite chapter and you'll see why! Faith leads to miracles and there are just so many examples, especially verses 12-19! I have seen sooo many miracles and I know that it is BECAUSE of faith that miracles are wrought!!
My week was pretty much just another slow and sick one (they did tests and still don't know what's UP!) and the pics tell the story, so we'll keep it short and jump right to the miracle!
MIRACLE: We've been doing daily challenges as a mission to reach our monthly goal of 100 baptisms (1 per area plus 10!) in the month of August. It was so fun when we did them as a zone back in Vernal, but with me still being sick it has been a bit more difficult. On Wednesday, the challenge was to give out 2 Books of Mormon as a companionship, but we didn't even leave the house that day. The very next day, we got a call from a YW president in one of the wards requesting 3 Books of Mormon for some nonmembers that came to girls camp!! How AWESOME is that?! The Lord knew our hearts and even more, he knew the girls who would be at camp and want to learn more. And 2 of those girls even came to church this week and want to meet w us! Miracles my dudes!
THANKS for all your prayers, fasting, and inspiring messages the last couple weeks. I have felt so so much love from friends, family, and even total strangers in my new area. I love you all more than you know!!
