Kyleigh In Korea
mission update week 40
Our day full of miracles....
So we wanted to deliver cookies and little message cards to all the members for Valentines Day...so we set off on an adventure.
It started POURING RAIN and we only had one umbrella.
A man found an umbrella on the side of the street and gave it to us. HUGE BLESSING.
We had to get into 5 family's houses but they all have front pass codes. We wanted the cookie delivery to be a secret so we had to wait for someone to walk in our out of each of the apartment buildings. After 5 minutes of waiting at each house someone either walked in or walked out. That was also a HUGE BLESSING.
The Elders had an investigator that they had been meeting with. His nickname is Mr. Green. They hadn't been able to contact him lately because he got a new job. He is my age and going to college. But we found him! After finishing dropping off all of the cookies and message cards we walked by a chicken fast food place and there he was. WE FOUND HIM! After talking with him he agreed to meet the Elders again. Another HUGE BLESSING.
A potential investigator also showed up to our Little Kids English Class. That hasn't happened in 2 months! BLESSING.
My old investigator Chloe... who had a baptismal date that disappeared and stopped contacting us suddenly...remember her? She popped into my head one night as I was saying my prayer before bed. So right then I started a fast for her. The next day I decided that we should just show up at her house. So we did and she was there! It's been two months since we have met. We talked for a long time. She doesn't have interest in meeting right now because she is going through a rough time...but at least she knows that we care.
Heavenly Father always provides a way for his work to be done. I am thankful for all the blessings that he has given us this past week and for all the blessings he has given me in my life. Look for the little things every day and I promise you will find a blessing from the Lord. Love you all!!!
9 MONTHS DOWN BABY!!!
Love,

We are soooo alike in a lot of ways.
She's a joy!
In honor of President's Day I filmed B reciting all the Presidents of the United States.
She memorized them last year at this time... just because. Her then 4th grade teacher was so impressed she had her go down to the principal's office to recite them all to him. She's been doing a refresher's course this past week and she's still got 'em down.
Way to go B. Olivia!
