Families

This last week i have really cherished my family and families out here! We got a chance to see a family last night. This family wants to go to church so bad, and there are two little boys who love the gospel! Their dad doesn't

 like the church so he doesn't allow them to go, but we got the chance to throw the football with them,and their cousins, one of the boys has no legs, he was born with a physical handicap, but he plays football like a beast,and his older brother Timothy, he has two hands that are split down to his wrist, it goes from in between the middle finger to the ring finger, but it goes down to his wrist! but yet they do all they want to, its really amazing! We are trying to work with them, we are gonna try to talk to the dad and see what his concerns are, but we haven't met him yet! but its good down here in flordia! love and miss yall! Hope yall have a great week!

Fire!

Cool experience with one of our less actives! We met with Sister McDonald, like usual every week. Well in the past she has never taken out a book of mormon, and she tries to switch the subject. Well this week, when we told her we had a message for her she jumped up and went and grabbed her book of mormon, and she had some questions about some things that her friend had, well basically she was defending the church:) well we answered her question, and we shared a message with her. It was really cool to see because i have never seen her do that and she has been less active for 16 years now. This gospel is really so awesome! The lord helps guides us to those who are needed, even if it takes a while. We just cant give up, the lord will never give up on us. We all make mistakes, we just got to forgive others and us as well. I love these expirences because the lord has more than we think to learn from them. we just got to open up our minds and be humble enough to follow with faith. I love and miss you all. Thank yall for the support:) until next week:)
