Well... Sister Jones and I may not have had a turkey to eat for
Thanksgiving, but we did have a bounteous feast in terms of missionary
work. :) We were able to find and teach a total of 22 investigators
last week! It was awesome. 11 of the less-active members we've been
visiting attended church yesterday. It was so great to see them there
and a lot of them have attended several times in a row and are now back
into "activity." Probably the greatest blessing we received last week
was to be able to feel the Spirit so strongly as we taught. It helped
us countless times to know what to teach including a few times where we
had to change our plans last minute, whether or not to extend bap.
invitations, where to go to find people, who to talk to, helped me a ton
with the language, and overall just guided us in everything. I'm so
grateful for the gift of the Holy Ghost! It's such a powerful gift that
anyone, if they are worthy, can receive and have with them always.
Besides feeling a little sad that we couldn't be with our families
enjoying good food last week, we haven't had any major challenges this
last week, Hallelujah! The Mango Float I ate yesterday at some of our
members' home makes up for missing out on Turkey and Mashed Potatoes. :)
This week we have Zone Conference tomorrow and Sister Jones and I will
be singing a musical number for that... hopefully it goes well...
Health-wise I've felt back to normal, thank goodness. I'm
still keeping in eye out for anything weird though.
I hope you have all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Have a great week!
Love, Sister Dickison
