The Spirt of God

So another week and Kelowna and things are going nuts here!  I honestly don’t remember what really happened this week though...things are just moving too fast for me to remember anymore...

I guess to start it off is the best miracle! We were chillin at general conference and not many people showed up which was pretty sad :(. Well, the 2nd to last session ends and a member comes up and introduces us to this couple that he invited. Turns out that husband has been a less active for a very long time, and the wife is not a member, but loved general conference! We talked for about an hour after, jumping from temples, to the Book of Mormon back to Word of Wisdom. IT WAS NUTS! We were so excited! We were able to drop by later that night and they let us right in! Literally just a miracle! She practically flipped out when we told her about the LDS Library app! She started scrolling through the hymns, picked a random one and got so excited, she connected it to the TV and blared "The Spirit of God"! So yeah...we belted out to it too. Literally got the coolest divine intervention right after singing all 4 verses, and told her to go to "Joseph Smiths first Prayer". Literally the spirit came in like a ton of bricks and we were able to hop right into the restoration and teach about the Book of Mormon! God is just so good! I had never had that happen! She was so excited and wanted to come to church the following week!

I was also able to go on exchanges with Elder Tan! Literally so good! Hit it up like old times! Brought back so many memories of Brookswood! He freaked me out though. He told me that the day we were on exchanges that it was exactly a year ago when we first met. Literally almost passed out! I feel so old and I have exactly 6 months and 1 day left!

But things have been going great! God has just been so good! People have been popping up out of the woodworks and the miracles never stop!

Sure love and miss yall!

Love
