Oh Snow

We really got hit with snow this morning. Around 6 inches overnight!
Now we must plan an extra 15 minutes to clean off the car in the
morning! Wooooooo

This week has been so much fun! Having an old companion all over agin
is fantastic! We have both grown a lot but we get along great. We have
seen lots of miracles together! Here are a few from this week!

Let's start with Janet. She walked past us with a heavy cart so we
hopped out of our car (it was parked) to see if we could help. We got
to talking and she said she had been to our church before. Of course
that started another conversation which led to how the Book of Mormon
relates to Native American culture. We told her that it was a record
of the ancestors of the natives Americans, and we were able to testify
that it would bring her closer to Christ as well. She happily accepted
a copy and invited us back. From that I learned that you should never
hesitate to help someone, even if it is like 15 degrees outside!:)

We were asked by the bishop to go and visit a woman in Saco who had a
recent loss. Come to find out she is a friend of some people I know in
Portland! We had a great conversation with her, and offered her our
message of peace. She was very touched! I was glad that I was able to
be exactly where the Lord needed me to be so I could have a connection
with her!

Lastly, Sister Castleton was so meant to be here. Nan investigator was
talking with us about how he received spiritual knowledge in an
unusual way...and it turns out Sister Castleton had had a similar
experience. The lord knows us, guys!!!!!!


I hope you all are participating in #LighttheWorld! For today's act of
service, I want to share my favorite scripture that relates Christ to
light. It is 3 Nephi 18:24 :"Therefore, hold up your light that it may
shine unto the world. Behold I am the light which ye shall hold
up--that which ye have seen me do."
Christ is telling us that He has shown the way. We have many examples
of how to uplift others and bless lives. All we need to do is look in
the scriptures!

Have a fantastic week!
