I AM THANKFUL FOR ALL OF YOU!!!
The areabook for the Fort Mac area is a little bit insane!! The list of potential investigators is HUGE!!!! And a good portion of them have never been contacted besides when they were first found!! Our mission president has asked us to "clean" our areabook by going through our potentials list and trying to make contact with them, and potentially teaching them!! We stop by potential investigators basically all day everyday, and most of the time no one is home!! This past Sunday we were doing this and we only had a few minutes left before we needed to head home for the night! We decided to stop by a self referral from 2015 (yes, there are people that haven't been contacted since as far back as 2013) that had requested a Book of Mormon! We asked if the person was home and they said no one by that named lived there! It was a little awkward for a brief moment, but whatever!! We introduced ourselves as missionaries and explained why we were looking for the other person! We shared the fact that we have prophets here today, and it is because of the modern day prophets that we know that through the power of the Atonement of Christ we now have the ability to be sealed to our families for time and all eternity! We are sealed to our families through the blessings of the temples of God! She asked where our temples were and basically asked if her family could be sealed together!!
God leads us on wild goose chases sometimes to find His most prepared children! There are no coincidences, mistakes, or "oops", especially in the Lord's work!! Everything happens for a reason, I promise, so make the most out of every situation!!!
God's plan for each of His children is PERFECT!!! We NEED to listen to the guidance and council of our Heavenly Father, because He will ALWAYS lead us to a Happy Eternity!!!
I LOVE ALL OF YOU SO MUCH AND AM SO GRATEFUL FOR THE MANY KINDNESSES AND SUPPORT YOU ALL GIVE ME!!!!
