Hiked up Indian Head

Hello Everyone

Marci... the one whose husband just died... well the day we were having our first teaching appointment with her, we went over and she had just got off the phone. She found out she has breast cancer. It makes me want to cry when I think about it. Its just crazy. She was like.. I have to get sealed as soon as possible because I may be going up their alot sooner than we first thought. She is handling it really well. I think she is still in shock. We are here in her life for a reason. I dont know why she is being hit with so many trials but we will just be here to help teach her how her Saviour will hold her hand through it. We hopefully will teach her this week but obviously she has alot to deal with so we are just going with what she can handle. She came to church though!

So when we were at her ward there was a young lady with her daughter their that had worked for Randi (who died). She was really impressed with the funeral and Randi's nephew invited her to church. We had a lesson with her in gospel principles time and we are teaching her again tonight. Cool Huh! I love stuff like that. The members here are amazing!

I am soooo pooped! We just went on a 5 hour long hike. It probably would have been shorter but sister Krauss had some difficulty. Thats a long time to be standing in the sun! My forhead is sunburnt hehe.

So I took Sister krauss on her first tracting adventure yesterday and it was successful! We did our normal praying for inspiration procedure that we normally do and we felt impressed to go to Curtis Street. We went there and knocked the first couple and then down the road a bit there was a house that I felt we needed to go to. When we got there I noticed that it was a house on the street that crossed it, that we had already tracted before where the man was less active and not interested so we didnt knock again. We kept going and got a lot of no's.Then we had 2 minutes before we needed to get to our appointment and we decided to knock the last door. The lady was interested and wants us to come back! Crazy! Had we not felt like we should go to that house earlier then we never would have made it to her house at all! Miracles! The Lord truly sends us to those he has prepared and humbled.

Oh last week we had a new member missionary meeting and it was soo good! I learnt so much. I have alot of improving to do out here still but we just take it one day at a time. Do a little better each day then the day before. The meeting was so spiritual and you can see how much the new missionaries have changed already!

Things are going well here. Sister Krauss is learning. We are seeing many miracles and are working hard. I am tired today hehe! I need a nap after our hike so I am going to leave it there!

I love you all! I love hearing from you all! I love you and miss you!
