I'm sure the weather in Utah is worse, but right now I am freezing here. Its pouring rain and is about 40 degrees... this isn't supposed to happen in Arizona. Aside from the cold weather, the week was actually pretty good.
We are still spending a lot of our time working with members trying to get them to help us with the work. It has actually been pretty effective. There is a family in the ward who has helped us so much, in fact we had a girl come to church because of the fellowship!
The girl that came is good friends with one of the Young Women. She has been going to activities for the last few months and she came to church for the first time yesterday. She said that she wants to keep coming too! I spoke as well and I really enjoyed that. Since being on the mission I have loved speaking at church! I volunteered myself so they let me do it haha. I usually have some notes written out so I have something to go off of, but yesterday was different. Because of the girl that came to church, I really wanted to speak to her. So I didn't even use my notes and I went up and just spoke with the spirit and bore testimony. A lot of my talk was focused on the Atonement of Jesus Christ. I think it was successful.
To end out a spiritual note, I'm going to share a little thought I had this week. First off, I just wanna say how true the Book of Mormon is. The feeling I get when I read it is literally the best. There's not too much that beats it! I studied in Jacob 5 and I made sure that I was understanding everything because usually when I read that chapter, I zone off because it's so long. This time I used last year's "Come, Follow Me" manual to study. The thing that stuck out to me was how the Lord works with us. This is including missionary work and whatever we are doing in our lives right now. He knows us. He doesn't just watch over us from a distance, He makes sure to work with us.
Love you all!
