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

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

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
