Sister Crosby and I tried to go
to mass early this morning, but the church wasn't open and then it got all
smoky. Bummer :/Don't know why.
Anyway, but lots of good things have happened this week!
At the beginning of the transfer SIster Crosby and I
experienced a miracle where we met a woman from Iran. She is Muslim, but has very strong faith in Jesus Christ because of the
help and strength and comfort He gave her during her very difficult time.
Immediately after meeting we ordered a Book of Mormon from the office in
Farsi. Well, we had planned to meet up with her, but have only briefly seen her on the sidewalk a couple times since then.
The other day a man stopped us and said (in English) "I want
to tell you that you are beautiful both inside and outside. You are always
smiling. What are you doing?" Well, he was actually from Iran as well. We
met with him in the church on Saturday and miraculously had a Book of Mormon to
give him in his own language! He was thrilled and amazed and touched that it
was in his own language. When we prayed together he was touched that we prayed
for him. He texted and asked us to continue to pray for him. So sweet. So that
was miraculous!
A little earlier in the week we also miraculously found the woman from Iran again! We were leaving the church and had some extra time so we decided to go
towards the lake. Then we decided to change our course halfway. Then we were
walking past our favorite ice cream stand, so we decided to grab some ice
cream. And then we went along our merry way.
Because of our indecision and ice
cream, we came to an intersection of sidewalks just in time to see her down
another path. We were able to share with her about the way that we pray and how
we can each have an individual relationship with our Heavenly Father. She was
so touched and loved it. We are trying to get another Book of Mormon from the
office and the miracle we are hoping for this week is to find her again while
we have the Book of Mormon (Farsi) on hand.
The Lord is in the his work and laboring with his laborers.
We are all his laborers and he will labor with us if we show him that we want
to be used.
Love you very much!
