This is our 2nd to last letter!!!!


Dear Family!!!
I just have to say, I love you all! And I also have to say, I love being a missionary!!!
I am running out of time with writing right now... so this letter may or may not be a shorty, just saying....
Highlights this past week:
I went to the Temple with all of the departing missionaries, it was a lot of fun! AND I am the only Hermana/Sister going home this transfer so I have 10 Elders all to myself to carry my bags and everything... haha! (That is what President said to me at least... haha!)
We set a date with Mat and Michael (they are a part member family) We are so excited for them! They came to church yesterday and we have a lesson with them tomorrow. They will be baptized May 11th!
AND we also had an AMAZING lesson with Howard and he came to Church yesterday too! We will be setting a date with him this next week for mid May too!
Hm.... what else happened.... MISTY GOT BAPTIZED!!! I don't know if you remember her. Hermana Penrose and I taught her in Ottumwa and she got baptized this past weekend. We were able to go too!!! I forgot my camera today so I will send pictures next week... OR I could just wait to show you later. Haha! :)
SUNDAY!!! HUGE MIRACLE! Okay, so we were in Relief Society and our Branch President came in and said, "There is a little boy, who is 2, wearing a orange jacket that is missing and he was last seen on Henry Street. If you want to leave to go look for him you can." SO, we left to go look for him. We were all just praying and asking Heavenly Father to direct us in some way to find him. We were all listening to the Spirit and letting anyone that we saw on the street to look for him. We then say this lady walking down the street with a little boy and we told her about the little boy that is missing and she said, "this is him! we found him!" I could not hold back my tears and we got out of the car and gave her a huge hug! I could only imagine what she was feeling like. We talked with her for a little and found out that she is actually  member of the Church! She hasn't gone for a long time and in fact, her records aren't in the Branch either. What a blessing!! What a miracle!!!
I know that God loves us! I know that He gave us His Son so that we can become better people and change. I know that Christ is our Savior. I know that the Book of Mormon is true! I know that miracles have not ceased!! That there are no coincidences in this life. Only God given miracles! I know that families are Eternal! I love you all so much!!! Have a great week!!!
