This week we met two
new investigators: Ice and Snow. We really like Snow because she brings
in the Christmas Spirit and gives us fresh perspective of the world.
However, Ice always has to be with Snow. She is really pretty, but is
everywhere! She also makes driving and walking an adventure.
This week we saw Kentucky at its finest as all the grocery stores
quickly ran out of bread and milk. Everyone was preparing for the storm
and telling us off for being out in this kind of weather. Yes, it was a
bit slippy, but it held nothing to a Malta snow/wind storm. A few ward
members thought I was just being cocky because I was from Idaho, but if
you know me you know that I drive like a grandma when it comes to winter
driving. The crazy thing was that it got really warm the day before.
Warm as in we were using the AC. I guess it does that in Idaho too so I
shouldn't be too surprised.
Other notable events of the week included a meeting in Nashville
and an exchange in Hopkinsville. The meeting was the regular
Spirit-driven with powerhouse missionaries everywhere. The exchange was
also Spirit-filled and included powerhouse missionaries. The only
exception was that it was all in Spanish. And we know how fluent I am in
Spanish.... The Hermana I was with had me read (aka butcher) a
paragraph in a Spanish pamplet and then they had me lead the hymn for
their Spanish FHE group. It was an adventure and I truly admire all the
missionaries who learn another language.
What's been really neat this week is my online work. The gospel is
going forth to all nations, kindreds, and tongues....through
Facebook! If you told me 3 years ago that I would be teaching the gospel
to people on Facebook, I would have retorted, "Yeah and I'll
probably be able to pet a deer too." And look what happened?! The Spirit
does not have any limitations to his travel. I've seen it. I've felt
the Spirit as I type my testimony to those in the online world. And this
isn't just limited to those approved Facebook missionaries! A little
treasure shared by the Mummsie: We don't need a missionary badge, we
need a missionary heart. So this week's challenge comes in two parts:
WILL YOU 1. Share your testimony on Facebook whether it be to all your
friends or just one friend and 2. Send me a friend suggestion of someone
you know on Facebook so that they can partake for those same blessings
of the gospel? Let us show the world that much good can come from
technology. The Lord has blessed us with these tools!
Love y'all and be safe in during this wintery season!
Love, Sister Neener (:
