AWESOME MIRACLE

What...the heck...I have 17 days since I am out a whole year on the mission! Isn’t that just super weird?!?!?  Anyway! This past week was awesome and tiring all at the same time! I think having P-Day on a Tuesday just threw me off for the whole week...it was so tiring, but what was so awesome was that we were able to pick it all up by the end of the week!

District meeting was awesome this week! A little intimidating when you are the one who has to run the meeting and have President Burt there! It was such a good meeting though! He is just so good on wanting to help us out with our investigators. He just wants to help so badly! Makes me want to work even harder!

The rest of the week was pretty rough though. We had a ton of appointments fall through and we had members coming out with us which makes it look bad on us. I think that was the gist of the week. A TON of appointments that just kept falling through. Kind of rough. But that’s when Satan wants to get down on ya! That or something awesome is just about to happen! We just keep praying and working hard for those miracles! And guess what?!?! They happened! Valentino and Gus both came to church today! And what is even cooler is that we had this guy named Floyd that had been investigating the church over in Coquitlam. I didn’t get to know him that much but I was sitting next to the door and he had just come in. He looked out of place, so, I of course run up to him and ask him to sit next to me. Next thing I know, the guy is crying in sacrament meeting. I talked to him after, just shortly before he left, and he told me that he had a lot on his mind and that he will be back next Sunday. Didn’t seem in the mood to talk, but, IT WAS AN AWESOME MIRACLE!!! He will forever remember that experience!

Other than that, not much happened this week besides talking to a bunch of people and trying to meet with them! God is just so good though! It’s been awesome serving in the area! Surrey is hard, especially trying to keep up with it, but it is SO much fun! Sure love and miss all of you!
