Peter Steimle Attachments Thu, Jun 22, 6:26 PM to me, jonirollins55@gmail.com Hello Moms & Dads, I was a missionary dad recently so I'm guessing that you'll appreciate this pic of your daughter. Your daughter, OUR missionary. 🙂 We've been meeting for a couple months with Terry Lewis (in the green t-shirt), and he has made amazing progress, reading the entire Book of Mormon in just a few weeks, giving up old habits, attending church, etc, etc. The Lord is certainly working through the Holy Ghost and your daughter (OUR missionary). Terry is hoping to get baptized soon and since I'm the ward family history coordinator, and Terry wants to occupy his free time with positive activities, we decided to help him prepare some of his ancestors records so that he can go to the temple and be baptized for them within a month or so after Terry is baptized. We don't want him to feel like he's reached the top and had to stop and... (Jungle Book movie reference). Anyway, THANK YOU for lending your daughter to the Lord. Were you here you would see that He is making much more of her than we could. Or she could...(President Benson quote reference...see attached poster)...you would weep for joy. #MOSTsweetfruit!! Seriously. My wife and I have taught with them, had them for dinner, and they are working hard, teaching by the Spirit, and are sweet, sincere, polite, and just fantastic missionaries. ...I suppose I can say that your prayers are being answered. Ope! My wife just tossed candy to them! I wonder if you prayed for that!? Sincerely, Peter & Annette Steimle Lawrence, Kansas Jennifer Shumway Thu, Jun 22, 8:15 PM Thank you so much for this email. Rick and I are sitting on the front porch and I was feeling very lonesome for Lila. Then I looked at my phone and here is your Peter Steimle Fri, Jun 23, 7:24 AM to me Heavenly Father knew you were lonesome for Lila last night. I was watching Terry do Family Search and suddenly felt like taking a picture, for no reason. And then I suddenly felt like sending an email to the missionary's parents! We have a great God. A mighty fortress is our God. 😊 Happy Friday to you. Peter

Another week in Kansas! Inbox Lila Shumway Attachments Mon, Oct 10, 2022, 3:12 PM to me Hey everyone! I LOVE KANSAS! this week had its ups and downs, but it was so amazing! Last pday was a zone pday and I got to see my amazing mtc companion Sister Anderson! That was super exciting because I missed her a lot! The zone was playing some pickleball and this nice old man bought us all pizza! He didn't even know who we were, Kansas has the best people honestly. This week we started teaching our friend Jake! He is doing so good and loves to read the Book of Mormon with us. Jake is always so nice and he said he's trying to turn his life around and knows that we can help him. Jake really wanted to come to church this week, so we got him a ride and set everything up. But Sunday morning, Jake wasn't answering his phone:( so he didn't come to church. We still haven't heard from him so please pray for Jake! Tina is also one of our friends who could use your prayers! She has a...

So it's been a really long time since I've written an email so here's an update for you guys. Since I've written last: I finished training sister glass (LOVE HER), then I was companions with Sister gunderson and had so much fun with her (I LOVE HER TOO), then I got transferred to Lawrence Kansas with Sister Rollins (LOVE HER SOOO MUCH) We had such an amazing transfer and we worked so hard!

Bob: we knocked on his door a few weeks ago and he was willing to listen to us! Then, the exterminators came to spray his apartment so we had to leave before we finishe...

CRAZY AWESOME MIRACLES! Inbox Lila Shumway Mon, Nov 21, 2022, 3:25 PM to me Hey everyone! This week was amazing! I am so thankful I was able to witness some miracles from God this week! Okay here we go! So we'll start with Monday. I had the feeling we should call brother and sister Martuscello, because I absolutely LOVE them! Brother Martuscello didn't pick up but that's okay (I promise this part is important later). Fast forward to Tuesday, Sister Briggs and I were out driving and we saw our friend Mallory on the side of the road walking her dog (Mallory is our amazing friend who is getting baptized either this week or next). It was definitely meant to be, so we parked our car and ran to catch up with Mallory. She tells us that she lost her job out of nowhere! But she's so faithful! She said she wasnt freaking out because she knows God has something better in store for her. Fast forward to Wednesday, brother Martuscello calls us back and asks if we know of anybody...
