Hello! This past week has been so busy and fun! First of all, right after I sent the email last week we ended up seeing a broken down car in the middle of a busy intersection. So what do missionaries do other than walk to the middle of that busy intersection and direct traffic away from that lane? It was a lot of pressure but you feel powerful when you part a busy intersection of cars. Imagine what parting the red sea must've felt like!
We have a mission car to use, but it had to go in the shop for most of the week so we were walking far and wide in hot weather! But that's when we started finding miracles! And that's been the theme of my mission - once we are out of our comfort zone we step into the Lord's comfort zone! I have seen this so much, especially this past week! We get to meet so many various backgrounds and personalities. We went to a woman's home to check up on her and meet her but she wasn't home, and her nephew was home and we were able to begin teaching him! Then we saw some random apartments far away and we went, and the first apartment we buzzed was a Hindu man from India who wants to learn more about Jesus! Right when we said the Church of Jesus Christ he led us into his apartment haha. I have met so many awesome people!
Our mission president is finishing his mission at the end of the month and we went to his departing devotional, and it was so spiritual and amazing to hear his story! His wife and him both served in Germany, then served a couples mission in Germany, and now in Wisconsin. And for anyone who doesn't know, I thought I was going to Germany 101% but I literally got sent to the closest thing to Germany outside of it! Wisconsin is all German influence and full of Germans! The Lord is so aware of our progress, our needs, and I love His plan way more than any plan I could make for my own life. I love teaching this Gospel, I love the hope it brings, and I love my Heavenly Father! Prayer is such a powerful thing we can use at any time, and I know that Heavenly Father is eager to hear from us and bless us, for us to turn to Him and show our faith, and I know that God won't lie to us so I invite you all to pray about your worries, your joys, and especially about the Book of Mormon! It truly testifies of Christ on every page - and shows that God loves all people and all nations!
I hope you all have an amazing week! I love each of you dearly, and I love to hear from you all. If you need anything let me know!
Love,
Sister Davis
