Hey! There is never enough time!
There are so many things to talk about and I am sorry but this week and day is just too busy so I wont be able to write very long or write everyone back! Sorry! But, basically everything is going great! :) the leg is pretty much all better :) it was quite an amazing week actually..
Last week sometime the Elders and Sisters planned on going to a Kazak concert. I wanted to go, but President Wooley wouldn't let me go because my leg was too bad. PS President Wooley got stuck in Kazakhstan for a couple of weeks. But, anyways so instead of going to the concert with everyone I had to stay at the Couples apartment all night with President Wooley because he had to figure out transfers. It was really an amazing experience because I got to spend a lot of one on one time with the President and we had a really long and serious conversation. It really was an answer to my prayers concerning the frustrations with my leg. Later that night Elder Moore and President Wooley gave me a blessing. The next day I woke up and the pain was gone! It was really a miracle! The redness was not completely gone, but almost all of the pain was gone. So ever since then I have been up working and my leg gets better everyday :) it was truly an answer to my prayers and thank you all for the prayers as well! I know that they helped and are still helping!
I just want to tell one more really quick experience about one meeting which Elder Nutt and I had this week. We found this family of six that we have started teaching. I guess the wife found interest in the church awhile ago but the husband wouldn't let her come. But, one day we ran into her on the street and she asked if we had English Practice because her husband wanted to learn English. So, we started meeting with them to teach them English. They came about 5 times for english and then Elder Nutt and I realized this past week that we need to start trying to move them over to the gospel. Well, recently at Zone Conference they had talked about how we can more effectively use the IPods that we have been blessed to be able to use. So, we decided this was a perfect time and we watched a short film called Reflections of Christ, it is my favorite movie about Christ! We didn't really know how it was going to go because we really hadn't talked about the church, but we just went for it and started our lesson with the movie. The whole rest of the lesson we ended up talking about Christ and religion. All we did is ask them about what they thought of the movie and they just talked to us the whole time.. It was amazing! The husband is an amazing person and very religious! He just doesn't have a specific religion.. he reads the Bible everyday and reads it out loud to his wife all of the time. He even writes down his thoughts that come to him as he reads the Bible. He brought his notebook with all of his notes and it is amazing how close his writing come to our beliefs! So, we ended up giving him a book of Mormon because he said he loves to read religious materials and now we are working really hard on converting their family! It was an amazing experience! ( PS their names are Sasha and Lela)
Well that was really my main experiences this week :) now I am just focusing and working harder and harder to make up the few weeks that I lost because of my stupid leg :) I just want to get lost in the work and service of the Lord! :) thank you all for the love and support I really appreciate the prayers and fasting for me! You are all amazing! Remember who you are! I love you all!
