Hey y'all!!
How are you guys doing?! I hope that everyone had a wonderful week and most importantly I hope that daddy had a wonderful Father's Day! I love you Dad!!
So last week I was able to go to Yellowstone and it was AMAZING!!! It was amazing to be able to witness some of God's amazing creations! I sent some pics last week but I will send some again! One amazing miracle I was able to witness while we went to Yellowstone actually happened on our way back to Rigby! So we stopped at Mesa Falls which is absolutely beautiful! We were getting ready to leave and I made eye contact with this girl and I was thinking, "What the heck? She looks so familiar!"And then it hit both of us that we know each other from High School!! We haven't seen each other for almost 2 1/2 years! It was so cool! Crazy how small the world is!
So on Tuesday we were able to work some calves and man that was an adventure! We were giving the calves some vaccinations and digging holes for fence posts and all of that fun stuff! I was too scared to give the vaccinations (I probably cannot be a nurse haha) so I just straddled and held the calf still so the elders could give the vaccinations. Haha it was an adventure but we were able to meet a potential investigator from it! It was awesome!
We were able to have a lesson with one of our young investigators and it is amazing to see his growth! When I first got here, he did not show too much interest and did not really seem to want to participate a lot but this last lesson he was engaged the whole time! We taught him about the 10 Commandments and invited him and his family to come to church, they said they would!
We were able to meet with one of our investigators who is getting so close to committing to baptism, I can just feel it! We had a great lesson on the first half of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and he said that it was exactly what he needed! It is amazing how God works like that! He is helping in our lives more than we realize He is!
I am really excited because later this week we are going to have a lesson with one of our other investigators and we invited a member of the mission presidency to come teaching with us! I am a little nervous because they are such good teachers but as long as we teach with the spirit then everything will work out! I will let you know how it goes!
We were able to find a new investigator this week as well! His family are members of the church but he has not been able to be baptized yet. From what I have seen so far he did not show too much interest in God but when we met with him, he has a lot of interest! We are excited to keep teaching him and helping him come closer to his Savior!
On Saturday I was able to go on exchanges and I went to Menan! It was so cool! So that is a Spanish speaking area and I was with a missionary who is from Ecuador! She has lived in the States for a few years so she knows English. Man she is amazing missionary! This is only her second transfer in the field but she was doing amazing! God even gave me a little gift of tongues as well! We went tracting and then the first house we came to was a Hispanic! Earlier that day with members and things like that I had no idea what was going on but during this door contact I was basically able to understand almost everything! So cool! I could not speak but that's ok haha! Sister Mena did amazing and taught her about the Book of Mormon and everything! I hope they can go back and see her soon!
Lastly, we were able have a wonderful lesson with some members last night! We are teaching them the lessons so we can practice and we can all be uplifted by the spirit! We were able to teach the first lesson and it was amazing! Man I love sharing the greatest news on earth! God's church is brought back and there is a prophet on the earth today to tell us what we NEED to know! He has so much love for each and everyone of us!
I love you all so much and I hope you know the love I have for Heavenly Father and His son Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost! I know that this is His church and I am so honored to be a member of His army! I love you all and I hope you have a wonderful week!
Love,
Sister Lacey
