Shout out to the birthday people this week!! Happy Birthday to Todd and DAD!!!
This week has been wonderful for Sister Brown and I!! After Gustave Left on Sunday many of the ward members were able to keep in Contact with him all week. They would call us up and bring us pictures of him at the Church. He went to the church the day he go home. He found it online and went with his family there!!! We also go to skype with him with a family in our ward. It was so good to see him. He says that he is soooo happy. It was so wonderful to hear that he had already made contact with the church. THEN yesterday during church members came up to us and showed us the pictures he sent them. HE WENT TO CHURCH!!He was there yesterday. He took pictures of all the members and told us that he has an appointment to meet with the missionaries there! He is the best.When we skyped him he was telling us all about church and how nice the people were and how is he is going to make sure that everyone knows about the church-all his friends and family! He is going to do great things down in Rwanda!!! I know it!
We continued to work hard this week, working with inactive members, members, and finding new people. Yesterday we were going by on two referrals that we received We had gone by on both of them abou t5 times each and were not able to make contact with them. We were about to call it quits... and then we thought... okay one more time. As we went to the door of the first Kontact, I stopped and said we NEED TO PRAY! So we stopped and said a prayer that we would be successful and be able to make contact with these people. As we said amen we rang the doorbell and immediately were let in! Sister Brown and I were so surprised!! Then as we headed to the next house we knocked and the other family was home as well. We made an appointment our for this week and are going back tonight to have a lesson with this family!
Family, GOD WORKS. I dont know how many times I can say that , but I KNOW KNOW KNOW he does. He is there. He is waiting for us to call on him. To start a relationship with him. He is our father and Loves us sooo much. He is always there and is willing to help us whenever we need him.
I am so happy right now. I love being a missionary and I thank the lord again and again that he has given me this opportunity!! I love you all! have a wonderful valentines day!!!! Have fun decorating grandmas cookies!!!!!
Love you all,
Sister Nilson
