To act or to be acted upon?

FAMILIA!

How are you?? I am so excited to tell you about this week! It has been so crazy but so good at the same time! Sister Dummer and I are just loving serving together! She is such a hard worker and she encourages me and helps me to want to be a better person! I love her so much! 

So to give you a brief summery of what happened this week! 

-2 people we were teaching passed away

-We talked to 137 new people this week

-Tracting in 9 degree weather.... and I still have all my toes!

-people fell from the sky to be taught

-tracting on BYU I men's housing... that was interesting but found 2 potentials for the sisters on campus!

We have been trying really hard to talk to 20 new people a day and the blessings/ miracles are just coming in! We got a few potential people from the 137 that we talked to but the others are just miracles from God! 

The 2 people who passed away were really good men! One we had just started teaching and the other I have known since I got here. I am so grateful for the God's plan of happiness!

So we got a text from one of our bishops that he would like us at Ward Council yesterday and we went. They did their normal Ward Council things and then got into missionary work! So there is a girl that wants to get baptized in their ward and we spent like 20 minutes correlating how we can help this young woman and who's houses she can be taught at and who can be her fellowshipper and everything! It was amazing to be in there! It is such a great ward! It is also exciting because it is Sister Dummer's and I goal to find someone to teach in each ward and this ward hadn't had one yet! We should start teaching her tomorrow! 

Another miracle was that Sister Johnson and Sister Mackay called us and some members up on campus had been working with this none member family and they invited the sisters to come teach them! Well it went super well and it ends up that they are in our area! So we get to hopefully start teaching them this week as well! 

I am kind of mad at myself that it has been so hard for me most of my mission to talk to 20 new people a day but I am glad that my stubbornness has left and I am able to do it now! It is hard but it so worth it! The Lord is so willing to help us find people to teach! We just need to put in the work!

Oh and a miracle we saw from the Yes List (the area authority gave us a list of ways we can find more people to teach)! We asked one of our recent converts yesterday if he knew of anyone that we could teach and he said yes! He set up a time and we taught his friend yesterday and got a return appointment for next Sunday! It was awesome! We just need to figure things out because she doesn't live in our area, but we will!

Well things are going amazing up here in the "Burg"! Haha I love it here and I love being a missionary! Thank y'all for your love and support! Have a great week! I love y'all!! 

Love,

Sister Lacey
