"Go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast... and follow Me"

Stacey came to chuuuuuurch!

I'm really so excited this is the best week ever. Even if not that much else happened. It's just a really big deal that she made it to church because it meant interrupting her work on the weekend which is literally her only source of income. It's not even that, it's paying back a friend for a loan! Because of dumb bureaucracy stuff she's not getting money that she's supposed to be, so she almost can't pay her rent. But she acted in faith to come to church and we've only taught her a little bit! She decided after she read the introduction and prayed that she needed to come! We sat down to read earlier this week, just one chapter, but she insisted on reading more. She loves the scriptures and takes notes during church. Basically she's my favorite person. If only her son were on board right now immediately! But he's a good kid, he'll come around.

Otherwise, this has been a slow week. Elder Watkins got super sick and was throwing up in the middle of the night, and we had to help clear out another missionary apartment because they were moving. It wasn't even ours, and they were busy so it was just us. But hey, service! We helped them have time to teach someone, so we're still good. Contributing to the work somehow!

The mission is cool. Without even being able to teach that much over the last couple transfers, I've improved. Not because I've practiced a lot, but because my testimony has grown so much and I've learned a lot! Not to say I'm great or anything, but I'm improving, and that's all I can do. Progress is success! And it matters to you, because when you do the right thing God helps you love doing it!

Thanks for all your prayers and support. Keep living the abundant life!
