Hey Y'all!!!!

| You're a great trainer Sister Karauria!!! |
Ok so I just wanted to share with you some amazing Miracles that have happened in the last week! First, remember that lady at McDonald's who wanted to come to church just from a pass along card?? Well we met her again at her place, and we shared about the restoration and how she can find peace from the Book of Mormon. She also wants to know how she can go to the temple! We were not expecting the lesson to go in this direction so quickly. Well we explained to her about baptism, and she is still trying to grasp why she needs to be baptized again, but we are hopeful the spirit will help her understand. We are excited to meet with her later in the week!!

Also the Coolest Miracle. Sister K and I have been praying to find that one person or family that has been prepared. Well We found them!! We were walking one night in a Piedmont neighborhood and we passed by this man vacuuming out his car. We hesitated to talk to him cause the vacuum was going but we went anyways. We started casually talking to him about his day, and he and his fiance had just returned from seeing the Eclipse in Kansas. The conversation was pretty quick, and we started to leave feeling like we totally missed an opportunity to share the gospel, when I felt this strong impression to "Turn Around and set an appointment with him!" I was like, ok we need to turn around. (no second thoughts! :D) He told us that we could totally come back and teach him and his Fiance! Well the appointment was that
next Saturday and when you get an appointment off the street you never know what to expect when you follow up. Well, we had faith and they were literally waiting for us to get there!! We went in super pumped and taught about the restoration and Book of Mormon. They turned to each other when we asked them if they would read it, and said "we really should read that book!" So us totally "frazzled in heaven" missionaries realized they forgot to put Book of Mormons in their bags! Haha! We were so grateful for technology in that moment! They both downloaded the Gospel library app and said they would read! When we came back to teach Jordan (his Fiance) we asked her if she had read and she did! And 3 chapters after that!! She explained the peace she felt when she read about the Savior visiting the Americas. We testified that God knew and loved her so much. She told us that it brought her the most peace. That lesson went awesome and she agreed to come to church the
next Sunday! Yesterday she came to church! And she said that she loved it! She described it as a good different, and that she wanted to come back! We are so grateful for her, and can't wait to keep teaching them!!

Also, about 3 weeks ago Sister K and I got home and were feeling really motivated to get the members in our ward to do missionary work. So we began to pray for guidance from the Lord. Well, He inspired us to do a "Missionary Fireside" where members can invite their friends to come to a music and testimony meeting about becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ.
In 30 minutes we had it all planned out on a white board, and the next day we got our Bishop pumped for it!
September 24th is the day, and this is a miracle because alot of the members are so excited! We are doing alot of visits this week, and are telling everyone that the Lord has people prepared to be taught the gospel. And not just for us missionaries!
Miracles happen when you put the Lord first, and he will guide you to the best solutions imaginable!
