This week we have been working on contacting people and we have contacted a lot! We saw so many miracles and we were able to make a lot of referrals and we were able to have a lot of lessons. I was so surprised.This really is a great area, but I also feel like with a good hard working companion we are seeing miracles. The number of contacts that we wanted to receive and contact this last Sunday is we wanted to receive 1 and contact 4 we did 3 and 5! it was so amazing! I love how Heavenly Father blesses us when we set goals and then go out and work for it!
 
I love it!
 
I know that we are being guided and that we are working in the way that we are suppose to when I get re-energised after been so tire that I thought I couldn't move. It happen each time I teach and see that people understand the Gospel.
 
We had conference this week and we learned how to teach repentance and the atonement.
 
I loved learning things at the zone conference and I have to say, I love pamphlets! They are the best!
 
Have a good week!

Mothers day!

I was so happy to see all the people that were over at my mom's house! Such a wonderful time! I had a wonderful week too full of finding peopleto teach and finding people that truly want to change their lives and are willing to work and do something about we have been meeting with a man named Charlie, he doesn't have full use of his muscles so he is in a wheel chair and he still came to church! I was super happy and I was excited to see how many people cam up and greeted him. He is so smart and he knows where he wants to be heading!
 
This morning we went out running around a pond. It was so beautiful that I couldn't help, but enjoy it, but in the very last part of our time, we were stretching and there were these two ducks fighting, it was crazy! They keep going at it wrestling it was kind of funny to watch and they hardly noticed people who walked right next to them and it made me think, how often do we focus on the things that happen to us or on what other people to do to the point that we forget to look around us and listen to the angles or the friends who really love us and don't want us to get hurt. In this case one of the ducks broke free and ran aways into the water. I hope to run from the animosity and hurt feeling that might come into my life.
 
I know that I may only have a few weeks left out in the mission field of Florida, but like the sign that I spotted as we pulled out of a church building, "You are now entering the mission field" I will continue to be a missionary now and forever! :D
 
I love you all and I'm exctied to be seeing you and catching up with you!

A Wonderful Sunday!

HI! I hope that ya'll have had a wonderful week. Lake City is a wonderful place and there is a lot of work being done. I love the people here. 

A sister in the Relief Society started a class that is kind of like weight watchers and it has brought a lot of people to the church for it. Not to mention my companion loves it too (she loves exercising and eating healthy things. She is teaching me a lot, but I'm the one who introduced her to kale. ;)

We were planning one night and we had just about finished when we heard the door creek and be both jumped, then Sister Knickerbocker walked in! She use to live there and since we live in a house that is gated we usually don't lock up until after planning. It was a treat to see her, she said that she will be staying her for the summer in St. Augustine. I remember saying, "You are visiting from the other side of the veil!" :D

I love ya'll, Oh, I almost forgot our recent convert Idell stood and bore her testimony again this fast Sunday and her son did too, they were both happy that her daughter/ his sister came to church too. It was the best Sunday ever!

Have a happy week!
