Mormon Media Week

Dear family,

This week we really loved Mormon Media weekend. Mormon Media weekend is where we take out a bunch of members out with us then post about it on facebook to get the word out. If anything, it helps us to take members out with us, and get them pumped for missionary work. We also went with them to see some less active members. This made it easier to see who is progressing and who is not ready to come back. With taking members out with us and running around every where I really don't remember most of what happened.

While working with members this week we had a sweet experience. Two weeks ago we prayed to know who we should invite to find someone for us to teach. We felt prompted the G family was it, so we committed them. This week we followed up with them. Although they didn't have anyone ready for us to teach, every one of them had a missionary experience and felt more in tune with the Spirit while seeking for missionary opportunities. They were pumped, made me more pumped! It was sweet.

We have been working on teaching the restoration in 7 minutes, and have already had miracles from it. For media weekend one of our members wanted us to teach her friend. When we showed up at her friend's house she only had 15 min. Which was perfect! If we hadn't been practicing teaching in 7 minutes then we would have missed our opportunity to teach the restoration. Knowing how to teach in short lessons is so inspired! It's like the gospel is true, or something.

We also got to go to the JSM again this week. This time with G. It was wonderful and the same spirit was there. So, G. is awesome and she knows Heavenly Father is watching out for her. The day we went she was praying that it wouldn't rain while we needed to be outside. It rained the whole time we were traveling there and during the tour. But.... By the time we wanted to go outside and look at the monument, take pictures and eat dinner outside IT WAS SUNNY! Which was no surprise to G. Then it rained the whole way home. He really does watch over us.

That's all for this week! Love you all!!
