03/27/2018 - Miracles Happen Everywhere

Hey everyone.

Well this week was about as bitter sweet as you can get. So first update on the funny things that happened. Last Wednesday we hit a deer, hahahahaha. It was so stupid. We were coming around a corner and we spot him and slow down to like 15-30 kilometers and get to the right side of the road. Well the thing wanted to be hit and kept following in front of the car and we dinged it. haha it went rolling and ran off and we only have a small dent. But we had to fill out an accident report which is not fun. But we are totally fine, so is the car. Just the fun things that happen on the mission. It is also crazy how many deer are in Cardston right now. Because of the fires in Waterton all the deer moved east. Right into Cardston. So we have a crazy amount.

Just to update you on D, our investigator who was to be baptized. Well we dropped her as an investigator and have requested no contact with her from the ward. Sad how things go this way but something happened with her and it just is not a good situation and no one should be involved. I don't want to get into details. So that one kinda sucked to be honest, got my hopes up for a baptism.

But the good part of the week is we were able to go on exchanges with the assistants this week. They came down to Cardston and we blitzed the area. It was good to be having that much work done in our area and it was a good exchange. During the exchange we had a pass off lesson from the sisters who found a family of 4 who began investigating. They live in our area. They invited them to be baptized and so we are now teaching them! It was cool, they even invited friends to come listen to the lesson that night as well and we found 2 more gators! They came to church and that was the first time I met them. So very exciting stuff.

One more cool miracle from the Elders in Raymond. Raymond has been slow for the past few transfers, but is the hottest finding area in the zone right now. It's because the Elders are fired up and they have had experiences like this one. When they work as hard as they can and they are walking down the street and a guy pulls over and says: " just the guys I have been looking for.”  He says he has been less active most of his life and his daughter who is 12 won't stop bothering him about wanting to be baptized. So he says, “I want to baptize her. Could you boys come over and teach her and help me get active again?" So miracles happen everywhere, even in small Mormon towns like Raymond.

Love you all and hope you have a good week!
