Lowlights:
-SOO much travel, I'm exhausted haha.
-It is super rainy here, its a bit sad to not see the sun so much, but I'm doing alright haha.
Haida
Gwaii info: Haida Gwaii is an Island 7 hours away from the closest
city. There is no branch and only a few members. It is literally the
furthest place in the mission you can possibly serve. Its wild haha.
Steven- This is one of the craziest miracles in my ENTIRE mission.
Yesterday
we were trying to get in contact with Steven, who the Sisters met a few
weeks ago. He expressed interest in having missionaries volunteer at
the local Old Folks Home. So we called him, and he didn't answer.
Not
even 5 minutes later, he calls us back, which never happens. We talk to
him about the volunteering, which went good! He told us he was
currently on Vacation repainting his house.
We
felt prompted to ask if he needed help painting. After we asked, he
broke down into tears and was super grateful that we offered to help
him. He told us that he wasn't going to call us back, but something told
him to do so.
We then had a good chat with him about helping him, and we hung up.
BUT
THEN, he called us back not even 5 minutes later. He tells us he is on
the Church Website, trying to create an account. He then tells us that
for years he has been super inspired by the members on Haida Gwaii and
has felt like this was the church that was right for him. He told us he
wanted to join and become a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints!
So in the upcoming months,
there may be a baptism here in Haida Gwaii! We've been here for only 2
days and the Lord is working miracles already!
The Spirit is moving on the people over here!
Anyways, that's it for this week! Not a lot, but still some incredible miracles! God is good, and BC is blessed!
Hope y'all have a blessed week!
Haawa!
