"But If Not" - May 25th, 2015

Zdravo Družina!

We had another great week this week. We had exchanges so I got to work with another sister here in Maribor for a couple days and this next week we find out TRANSFERS! Transfers are 9 weeks in this mission rather than 6, and I feel like I just got here. Fastest two months ever.

The young girl we found tracting came to her follow up lesson and we had a super awesome member there too!!! What?! She is like a girl, Slovene, Joseph Smith. She already prays every night and is so awesome. I'm so excited to keep meeting with her and help her find out more about her purpose. She seems super geniuine AND her Dad dropped her off at the church for her lesson! That means her parents are ok with it too.

Drugač, we got to have a lesson in this woman's house yesterday and she seemed really lost. It was probably the strongest I have felt this spirit on a first lesson and just reminds me how easy it is for this spirit to be felt in homes! That is where we need to learn the language of the spirit so when you are out on the streets, working, playing, whatever it is, you can still hear the voice of the spirit. Other cool part to that story, her mother in law came in about half way through the lesson and suddenly, it turned into a member lesson. Haha, her Mom just wanted her to believe in something and was trying to convince her to read the book of Mormon and just give it a try. It was so awesome. Going outside of Maribor and tracting out there is teaching me a lot. And our juice intake has increased significantly. Slovenes are super nice.

Advice for the week: We should all trying saying 'but if not' in our prayers. Sometimes we are pleading for things we want and KNOW are good for us. This is fine. But let us all remember who truly knows what will make us grow and that He truly does everything out of love.

I love you all so much. The work is progressing, it always will. I pray for you all and hope everyone is in good health and enjoying each day! Talk to you again soon! xoxoxo

I saw all these weird wooden carvings at a garden last week, don't know why but I could see you taking pictures of them. So I took a selfie with one for you. Prašič je.
Thanks for your letter. Always appreciated. xoxoxo
