Hello Friends!
So much happens in a week, and when I finally get here to tell you all about it I forget! but we had a meeting this week that we got a call from our district leader to go to. There were a few picked to go and I was one of them. Lee Donaldson came to our mission to train us on a few things and to better our efforts as missionaries for this mission. Our mission is the most missionary dense mission! I believe it! We have at least 2 sets a ward, some at like 4 or 5 it's super crazy. So Sister Bishop stayed in our area with another sister, and I go to go to this meeting for the day! While there were here though they found a new investigator while tracting, so I am really excited to meet her! And they were able to meet with a less active who we have been trying to meet the last couple weeks. I am stunned it seems like every time I leave, something way cool happens! Every time! Some times I get nervous that I bring bad luck to the areas ;) haha no it's good I am glad things are happening!
When I got back from the meeting we had an appointment with one of our way cool investigators who I have been talking about a lot recently. Her husband was there and we were able to teach both of them! They kept talking about their past experiences with churches, and the horrible things that go on in them and the things they see in the people and all this stuff. Well since the wife was able to go to church and see and feel the spirit and the people. It was way cool! Because she was telling her husband all about the amazing people she met and her experience, and how "You have to come!" I loved it! It was like having member there with us! So they are going to come to church and we are way excited to be working with them and see how things continue to progress!
The other day we were tracting and we just weren't really feelin any of the streets we were tracting, we would like tract a street for a bit and then turn to each other and say "I am not feeling it", then go to another street and the same thing happened so we decided to pray for guidance to figure out where we needed to be and I remembered this street that I was feeling impressed to go to, and then this other street popped into my head. Sister Bishop turned to me and said what about _____ and I was like oh my! that was the one I was thinking of, and the other street that I was first thinking of was at a cross with this one, so we went to this street and started tracting, and this man was outside so we went up to him and told him who are are and what we do and then we was like "I would love to have you guys come over again, and can I make you some enchilada and apple pie?" and then set up a specific day and time for us to come back. I was like whaaat.... haha its so amazing to see that when we really put our efforts with the Lord's then he will help us, if we have righteous desires he will work with us to fulfill them.
So something crazy happened to us this week, haha well... its probably not that crazy. But we were at this members home talking to them about how we can help them with their yard. And they were telling us about this story of how this tree fell in their yard and all this stuff. And a couple minutes pass, and I hear this crack. And my companion and the sister keep talking, then I hear it again. I look over to Sister. Bishop and am like did you hear that? Then it happens again! I look at the tree across the street where our car is parked under and we realize the tree is breaking! So I have to sprint to the car the second I drive way the tree came down! Oh my goodness! It was serious, good thing it didn't land on our car. that would have been have bad day. haha
This week has been great though! Another day as a missionary and another week coming to serve the Lord. The most we strive to follow the Lord and keep his commandments the more we can find the fullness of life and our purpose!
I hope you have a wonderful week! I love you! and miss you!
Love, Sister Tincher!
I sure am glad there are angels watching over our missionaries. That tree could have really squashed her when she tried to move that car!
