Week 17: Mother Nature must have gotten her taxes back.. BECAUSE SHES BEEN MAKING IT RAIN!!

This week was so wet and rained everyday.. Didn't stop us from going out and doing the Lords work. Many miracles happened this week and It's been an Eventful week.

CRAZY STORIES:-

First things first.. Such a crazy thing happened on Tuesday and man was the Lord and his Angels surrounding us. We have investigators who are a couple.  We had another ice storm hit and my companion wanted to stay in for the night because it was probably safer to do so but i told her we needed to go to our appointment with them.  She agreed and we walked a mile in freezing rain...but we got there.   He was going to go teach at the Jail when we got there. He teaches classes about Addiction Recovery and how God has help him overcome his drug use.   If God can help him he can help you. HE IS SO AMAZING! Anyways he was waiting for his wife to get home so he could take the car to the jail that night.  She called and said she was 5 minutes away. 10 MINUTES went by and he walked outside and she was laying on the icy sidewalk. She had Slipped and split her head wide open.  We get her up.  He doesn't do well with blood so i got her sitting down and put my hand lightly on her head to stop the blood from gushing out.  I got Sister Rudolph to call 911.  I told the boys to grab me a cold wash cloth so that i could clean her hand and neck and my hands too.  The ambulance got here and they looked at her head while i was sitting there trying to calm her and the family down.  I believe they were all in shock. They told her she needed staples in her head and so we got her cleaned up and got her put in the car and got her on her way to the hospital.  One miracle from this experience was as we were about to leave we said a prayer.  I was still holding the towel on her head but we prayed for the family and for her, for comfort and to watch over them on the way to the Hospital. The POWER AND HEALING i felt flowing through my body was UNREAL. I cant even explain the Feeling. I could feel the Savior and Angels surrounding us as we had the opportunity to help this amazing family we are teaching..The love was amazing. We got them heading to the hospital and back to the Apartment. 

Sister Rudolph turned to me and said.....thank you Sister Gilmour for listening to the Spirit and making me go out tonight. If we wouldn't have been there mike would have left to the Hospital and his dear wife would have been on the Sidewalk laying there bleeding. MIRACLE and i'm so beyond grateful for this. we also will be teaching their 21 year old son from it and his girlfriend too. They were super interested in learning more about the Savior and the church.  

We found 11 new investigators this week and had some amazing experiences with them, makes our hard work wroth it.  Some hard stuff too but i'm so grateful for this week.  The people here need me and I've realized it's not about me. It's about the Lord and helping his children find their way back. We had Zone Conference and we also had exchanges with our Sister Training leaders and that was a BLAST!!!!!!!!!

I got to take their car to Bronson with Sister Blackwell and go find our referral and give her a book of Mormon. WE got to feed chickens and also Find Paula who i call the Chicken Lady. I love her. first time feeding chickens.  :):)



Our referral.

She was amazing and we will be teaching her though Facebook because Bronson is to far to walk. Its about 45 mins away in the car.. we just have our buff - 2 legs to get us around here. We will be teaching the restoration to her on Tuesday.  We talked about faith and repentance with her. She is finding God as she just got out of Jail and is a recovering Meth Addict. She knows she can't do this without God. She loves the Book of Mormon and Bible and that is what got her through the years in Jail. I could already see the Light that the Gospel brought into her life. I can see light and hope brought into her life in the 1 and a Half we were with her. I shared. " Bearing your Burdens with Hope" She started to cry because she said that she needed to hear the Message that we brought. The Spirit is amazing and i'm so grateful to have the Holy Ghost as a constant Companion. 

This church is true. Our heavenly Father knows each and everyone one of us. I'm so grateful i get to be an instrument in the Lords hands to help those lost sheep find there way.
I LOVE YOU ALL!! Have and amazing week. Put others before yourself and serve.
