So right now I am on my way to Yellowstone!! We get to go to Yellowstone once in our mission and I am so excited! I hope I get to see a lot of Buffalo and maybe even a bear! So fun fact about Sister Lacey, I really really want to try bear meat and for my birthday a member gave me some! I am excited to try it! I'll take pics!
So I have some miracles that I want to share with you! One happened the night before my birthday actually! So there is a girl who goes to church every Sunday and mutual every week but she is not baptized. We have heard that her grandma (who she lives with) does not want her to be. We decided to go see her grandma and we were walking and the whole way there I was just praying that she would be open (we have heard before that she is pretty closed off). Well when we got there she opened up to us and told us how she was struggling. We shared some scriptures with her and she said we can come back! We went back 2 nights ago and she is our newest investigator!! Ahh I'm so excited for her!! God is good!
So last Monday night my comp and I realized that we had been bad at contacting at least 10 new people a day. So we made it a point to do it that night. We started tracing and asked a member for referrals and they gave us a member who gave us another member but that member gave us a non-member! We contacted them and we met an 18 year old girl who excepted a copy of the Book of Mormon and told us we could come back! It's amazing what happens when you talk to 10 new people!
So in case y'all were curious, I have the best mission president in the world!! So last Thursday we went down to Idaho Falls to do interviews with him and guess what he did?? He set it up so I can see my best friend/ sister/ trainer!!! Man I missed her so much and it was so good to see her and talk to her! It was such a tender mercy! I needed to see some family at that time and luckily she technically isn't my family but I consider her my family so it was fantastic! :D
So last Monday night while I was doing my personal prayer I asked God to help me to know what to do so I can know that I am doing enough as a missionary. Well the next day we had zone conference and one of the AP's gave us a commitment to take 5-10 min and review the day as a companionship and see what we can improve on and what we did good on. He promised us that as we do that we will know if we are doing enough as missionaries! It was so cool!
Man this week I have realized how important and how amazing the Atonement is! No matter what we are going through, no matter how sad/happy/ alone/ excited really... ANYTHING! Our Savior knows what we have gone through and he wants to help us! I am so grateful for Him and His sacrifice for us!
I love being a missionary and I love being in Idaho! I am so lucky to be here and to meet all of these amazing people! I love you all! Have a great week!
Love,
Sister Lacey
