Be a Nephi

Mom! 

So sorry to worry you about those Hives. They have not come back and I am truly 100% okay! But the Benadryl would be lovely! To first answer your questions about the new way of doing our dinners. To be 100% honest they are not even supposed to be dinners. President wants us to be focused on the work so he wants us to switch from dinners to Family Home Evenings. Mostly for the family to invite someone who is not a member or less active to the Family Home Evening so that we can help strengthen the work as well as provide that specific individual with a fellow shipper. Mom this is a way that will progress the work. Many members are not happy with it, but because we have testified and promised blessings they are coming around and are more willing to fulfill the program. So it has been hard, but the Lord is blessing us every single day for our efforts! 

This week has been awesome! The Lord is blessing us like crazy according to how hard we work and our obedience to every rule! We got an amazing referral this week of a family who we could go visit! So yeah we made sure to contact them asap! We went up to the house and the mother (Tasi) tells us she is busy because this is her only day off of work. So I pull the quickest counter blessing and ask if we can speak for only 5 minutes so we can bless her family! She allows and we go in, start talking, turns out she has already finished her lessons but wasn't baptized, and has been waiting for another chance to get in contact with the missionaries! I am grateful that God put us in that situation, because we got to talking and committed her to start reading the Book of Mormon again. Then we left. A couple days later in church we see the most amazing thing. Tasi and her son Ben at church! We talk to her and come to find out her husband had been not allowing her to go to church until the day that we went to her house. After we left her husband came in and told her that it was time for her and Ben to go back to church and he would take them every week!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a blessing that not only were we able to contact her but that her husband had a change of mind in the same day! Also forgot to add her and her son are now on date! It has been a true blessing to see how obedience and humility come into play in this work!

But nothing else has happened. Just blessings like crazy! 

Hope you have an amazing week and continue to work hard!
