Hey!!

Miracle for the week:

We were tracting on Monday night in a neighborhood that had SUPER nice houses and we knocked on a door that was kind of out there--it was behind the other houses--and a Chinese man answered and he let us in! He gave us little slippers and water and we sat down and taught him a little about the restoration and gave him a Book of Mormon. His wife and two kids were home but he was the only one listening. We really stressed how the Book of Mormon and the gospel can unite and strengthen our families and can help us find peace and joy in this life and he asked us "Can it really do that??" I confidently said "yes it can!!" I love the Book of Mormon so much and I'm so grateful that I was raised in a family that had the gospel and was able to see all the blessings from that. 

It was really cool to see how he was amazed that a book and a church could do so much. He wasn't able to come to church yesterday but we are praying he will this week!

We are teaching a guy named M and he is so great! He is a manager of a fitness club so it’s really hard to meet with him, but this week he was available and we taught about prayer - how we have received answers and acting on the knowledge we do have. It was a really good lesson and the Spirit was definitely there. He's ready for baptism. He just needs to commit! 

On Friday a big portion of our day was SERVICE. So fun! We helped at a thrift store earlier in the day and later we helped clean a lady's house with a few members of the ward! It was fun to get in service clothes and just get to work for a couple hours. The lady and her five kids were so sweet and really appreciative of the help. I love serving people; it just makes me so happy! 

Have a wonderful week!!


Love,
Sister Horne
