Hey Everybody, how are you all doing this week? We had a Couple of really cool miracles that happened. One of the things I have been trying to do regularly is writing down the dreams that I have throughout my mission. I know that when I do that the Lord can trust me with things or visions that I need to learn about. One day this week I had a dream about going to some kind of temple with some other missionaries where on one of those days I received a phone call from someone named Victoria. I wasn't sure who it was but they said they wanted to eat out with us around 6pm. I told them about our hours but then they told us they were a Part Member Family. I know that there are no such things as Coincidences because the next day I looked in our Area Book and found a member with her name that was a Part Member Family. On that same day there was a Mustang that I saw that had a Towel in the front that attracted my attention more than any other car that day. When we finally did go over to her house the same Mustang that I saw earlier drove out of the driveway and Victoria was there. Her voice sounded exactly the same as in the phone call and we have never personally met with her before. It was so awesome to listen to the Guidance of the spirit that it helped strengthen my testimony in the Gospel.
Another really cool Miracle that came out of this week was during weekly planning. For weeks now we have been wanting to meet with the Permenter Family because they come to church regularly and even enjoyed General Conference. When Elder Peabody was giving a very long but thoughtful prayer there was a text message that came through. It was from Courtney Yarbrough who was asking if we were coming tonight. We had no idea what it was about so we gave her a call. Basically the Stake President met with the Johnstons, Permenters and the Yarbroughs the previous night. Ron Permenter expressed his thoughts about the church with them while they were all there and Ron, his oldest son Nolan and Trent Yarbrough all received Blessings. The Permenters now want to meet with us!!! We are so excited for this loving family and to now have them on the Living Board in our area. We had a really good lesson with Emily and Nolan Permenter and Ron wanted to be there but had to watch over one of his sons. They are such a Golden Family and from what we learned last night from our Bishop that they have paid tithing for the past two weeks. I have a strong feeling that this family will be the Family that is going to be baptized for White Christmas but we are still not giving up on finding another family this week. There will be challenges for them on this road but I'm glad to see them grow their faith in their savior Jesus Christ by taking this next step into their lives.

Other than that this week has been pretty good. We are searching for more people to teach in the area and we hope to set the Permenters on a Baptismal Date as soon as we can. There is a lot of really good people in this area and I hope I am here for another Transfer to see the outcome of the meetings with the Permenters. We met with a couple people including a lady who was taking care of a lot of animals and was alone. She went off on Politics a bit but we kept trying to help her understand that the Gospel can help her. She really needed someone to talk to after being alone for so long. Anyways I hope you all have a great week and I'll talk to you all again soon.
