Hey everyone! I hope you had a great week! It was another great week here in Kansas!
On tuesday, we had a mission tour, which basically means that a general authority took a tour of our mission and visited each zone! So we had Elder Ojideran come visit us (for reference, he gave the last prayer at General Conference). A few days before, our mission president, President Barr, asked sister Glass and I to come early and have a planning session and companion study with them! Haha we were pretty nervous, but we actually had a planning session and comp study with Sister Barr and Sister Ojideran. They basically just ended up talking to us, telling us stories, and bearing their testimonies to us haha.
A fun little miracle from this week: Sister Glass and I were trying to find a member of our congregation who has not been to church in a long time and who we thought moved away (that's what our notes told us). We went to his address (we had to be careful though because Google maps was trying to take us to the wrong address). And we found him! AND IT WAS HIS BIRTHDAY! He was super happy and appreciative that we came to see him, he wanted to know where and when church was!
We had some great lessons this week with our friends and some members of our congregation! Also! Our friend Mike came to church this week and he really liked it!
Please pray for:
♡mildred: to find a better living situation
♡Heather & Jacob: to feel God's love and have a desire to begin the covenant path!
♡Mike: to read and gain a testimony of the Book of Mormon
♡maher: to read and gain a testimony of the Book of Mormon
♡Dianna: to calm her anxiety
Some of my favorite words from our prophet in conference>>
My dear brothers and sisters, how we treat each other really matters! How we speak to and about others at home, at church, at work, and online really matters. Today, I am asking us to interact with others in a higher, holier way. Please listen carefully. “If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy” that we can say about another person—whether to his face or behind her back—that should be our standard of communication.
Lots of love, Sister Shumway♡
