Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know it's late, but I am pretty sure I didn't say it last time... haha sorry about that. But it seems like it was a good one! We went over to a ward members house for thanksgiving and they invited a couple friends who weren't members, then some couples in the ward. Haha so luckily we got some potential investigators and information while we were celebrating. They seem like way awesome people! We got to leave a spiritual thought as well that was abut the ten lepers and the one coming back to Jesus thanking him for healing him. I love that story and how important it is to thank our Heavenly Father for all that he has given us, because it will only build our relationship with him and our faith in him. When the leper comes back to thank him Jesus replies ans says "go forth, thy faith had made thee whole." The more we continue to give thanks to our Lord the strong we will build our faith and we will also find more blessings in our life.

 

As we continued with our week, things were a little slow. We did a lot of stop bys and trying to find members, but it was fun me and Sister McClimans really know how to make the best of both worlds and laugh. We went to an area this week to look for a former investigator and while we came to his house he ended up not being there, luckily! his son was though. thank goodness! We started to talk to him and tell him what we do and who we are and then we asked if he would be interested in learning more, and his friend comes up behind him and says sure! they were two 15 year olds that were awesome we introduced the book of Mormon and then they said we could meet with them later that night to teach them. We came back and taught them the Restoration and they set up another appointment! It was great. They were both so willing to learn more and open to hear what we had to say. I think it is so important to always keep in mine that the Lord is with you as you go and try to send forth his word. Whether you are a missionary or a member, if you are wanting to find an opportunity to share the gospel, and keep that in mind as you go through out your day the Lord will put people in your paths to do so, and loosen your tongue to speak to them!

 

I am so thankful for this time to be out here and sharing the gospel everyday, so that people can find the same happiness I have through out my life. The Lord will always strengthen you through your weaknesses as you go and look for him in your life by praying and reading the scriptures.

 

I love you all and I hope you have a great week! Miss you!

 

Love, Sister Tincher
