I forgot to put in my weekly email last week that my P-day is changing to Monday for this week because it is good ole President Pattison's birthday today whoot whoot! So I promise I'm not just breaking the rules :)

The Spirit of God like a fire is burning!

Hello hello!

This week I have such a testimony of acting on promptings! We had been knocking one of the first weeks Sister Falkner was here and someone had told us we could come back but it wasn't super solid so we had kind of forgot about it honestly. We had been planning to go back for weeks but kept pushing it off because things kept coming up. The other day I felt like we really needed to go back. We went and this sir answered that we didn't recognize. He was housesitting for his brother and it was the last night he was going to be there. We testified of the Book of Mormon and he said he'd never heard of it but was really excited because it was more about Jesus Christ and who doesn't want to learn more about Him? We gave him a copy and boy was he excited!

"Jesus has the same beard no matter what church you go to!"

The lady that told us this was definitely not wrong. She is just missing out on all the added knowledge that we have on the Saviour. 

"Do Mormons drink milk?"

Yes, I got asked that on the LRT this week...

It was a good week as usual! We started this week with a text from some missionaries telling me that two people I found are on date for baptism! Last week we received a text about a new investigator so we went and taught him and invited him to FHE that night and he came! As we taught him this week we invited him to church and he said he would love to come.

Sister Moon and Sister Faulkner lip syncing...so funny and cute!

Hope For Humanity

Well it's that time again for a weekly update!

Not a whole bunch happened this week other than lots of good FINDing! While on the LRT I met this sir who was 20 years old with a newborn baby. He told me it was his only day off work and he was on his way to see his son. We talked a lot about religion and why he is agnostic. He thanked me for talking to him and said he wouldn't have talked to a single person his whole hour ride to see his son. He said I brightened his day and gave him hope for humanity. A simple conversation changed his whole day!

Exponential Potentials

Hello hello!

What a great week here! We went to the temple, had a whole bunch of meetings, and went on exchanges. Sister Falkner and I were getting frustrated with all of our investigators ignoring us so we made a goal to go out and work hard to fill our areabook with some new people. We had set a goal of 7 or 8 new potentials thinking that would be a stretch but having faith we went out. We got 15 new potentials and 2 new investigators! The Lord really blesses us for our diligent efforts!

"I only married handsome men, sweetheart!"

Hello my people!

God is in the very details of our lives lemme tell ya! We were on our way to a lesson with one of our investigators and she cancelled which was kind of frustrating because it was her 3rd or 4th time cancelling on this lesson. Since the lesson fell through we were headed out tracting. As I was driving I had a very distinct place come into my mind of where we needed to go tracting. As I drove there, none of the houses were really sticking out to me but as as I turned off the car this cute old lady walked passed and looked in the window. I smiled and waved so she knocked on the window. We rolled down the window and she said she thinks she knows me! She asked if we wanted to come in and chat over some cranberry juice. 

Why is it called rush hour when nobody is gettin' anywhere fast?

Boy oh boy it was a quick week! The title of this email is a real question of the soul I've been pondering. Earlier this week we were out walking by the university looking for people to talk to. Nobody was on the sidewalk but it was rush hour and there was a lady with her window rolled down. I often make dumb decisions and ran out in the street to talk to her. Since the cars were barely moving I was able to talk to her and give her a card. Hopefully she gives us a call!

Greenie FIRE🔥

Hello friends!

We had transfers last week and I have a wonderful new missionary as a companion! Her name is Sister Falkner from Spanish Fork, Utah! She is so cute and excited to be a missionary!

"Yay it's my Mormon friends!"

Hello!

This week me and Sister Howe had the wonderful opportunity to go and serve women food who come from hard backgrounds. It was amazing to feed them and see how absolutely grateful they were. One lady came in and said, "Oh yay it's my Mormon friends!" Another lady told me she was so grateful because she had enough food to bring home to her children. Another lady insisted that she knew me, and who knows, maybe we were friends up in Heaven! These women were so extremely grateful and they were all such sweethearts. I am lucky to be standing in God's place up here in Edmonton.
