Hey there Cool Cats!
Miracles are a foot in Lyndon Vermont! My companion and I had some wonderful miracle this week, and it just goes to show that miracles come in the hardest of weeks.  The days have been pretty long, and it is hard to find people. But we have come up with creative ways to get referrals, and just continue to build trust with the members!
The miracles we see far outweigh the rough days! Our investigator Mary, who came to church, has such a glow about her now! She really seems like she is accepting the message more, and we are even reading the Book of Mormon with her every night! We are so excited for what her future holds!! We are just continually praying for her heart to be softened, and that she will seek out the wonderful spirit the gospel brings!
I think the Book of Mormon is central to everything I've learned this week. We had Zone Conference at the Joseph Smith memorial in Sharon, Vermont and it was all about the wonderful blessings the Book of Mormon brings. I think it's such a blessing that we have both the Book of Mormon and the bible that work together to guide us back to Jesus Christ, and together they give us a clear path! The magical thing the Book of Mormon brings is that it is so true! It was only translated once, and it was completely done by heavenly inspiration, so we know it's from God. I gave a training on how it can answer " questions of he souls" and others have trained on how it can help us feel the Holy
Ghost, and how it sets us free! All of these trainings ended at the same point: Those who truly desire to know, and will act on the promptings they receive from the Holy Ghost,  will know for themselves this book is true. And not only that, we can find the truth again and again as we continue to read. As long as we read and listen to the Spirit, we can learn something new each day, and it can guide us the good times and the bad times. The Book of Mormon shows how aware Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are of us, and how they seek to guide us in our lives!
And I find it so comforting to know that Heavenly Father didn't forget about us in these latter days, and he continuously provides us with guidance through prophets!! I am so excite that general conference is coming up!! I have learned so much about prayerfully seeking answers, and I am excited to see them answered!! I attached one of my favorite conference talks, to get everyone pumped up for it as well!:) I hope everyone gets their answers, and a greater testimony of the power of God through His prophets.
I'll end on another wonderful miracle. We met with Morgana, her fiancĂ©e Aaron and her beautiful family on Saturday! This was our first time teaching them, and it was amazing to see how the Lord has guided them to the gospel. They both have had powerful ( and I mean INSANELY POWERFUL)  spiritual witnesses of Jesus Christ. And they recognize that God works in every single thing that happens, and they really know that we are there to help them act on those witnesses . We hope to see them continue to grow in faith as they read the Book of Mormon
as a family!
I am so grateful for each of you! My hope is that you will all continue to seek out ways to be more like Christ in as many ways as you can! It's a big task, but I know if I can try to do it, then you all definitely can! Sister Bishop shared a wonderful letter her Grandpa wrote. The message was just that as we just we live the way we should, and try to just emulate Christ by loving those we come in contact with, they will wonder how we are so happy! Then we can share the wonderful blessings of the Gospel, of Jesus Christ, and just that Heavenly Father loves us all!!

Be most excellent to each other! (If you get that reference you are my best friend!)


Love ya!!!
