Member Work Is The Best Work

Our members out here in Coolidge are INSANE! We've gotten several referalls this week, and many have given out copies of the Book of Mormon or invited their friends to church. 

We spent some time during weekly planning scrolling through our MASSIVE ward directory for both wards (We're talking probably 1200 records). We picked a list of names that we felt like we should ask for referalls. Many of them we'd never heard of before. It's hard to tell who's active and who's not in wards that big. 

Miracle time!!

We met with a sweet little old lady from the list. Turns out she's the ward organist and she used to live in the Mormon Colonies in Chiwawa Mexico, and still knows a little Spanish. We started to tell her that we felt that there was someone in her life prepared to recieve the missionaries, and before we finished our invitation she told us that her friend next door neighbor is the one! Her neighbor speaks mostly Spanish and a little bit of English. So she walked us over right then, used her rusty Spanish to introduce us, and then I was able to use my spanish to invite him to come closer to Christ. MIRACULOUS!

So that's what's been happening. Dry lightning storms happen on the daily, and dust storms are several times a week. Life is good. I miss Hna. Gasperoni a lot. Also  we had exchanges. 

Until next time,
