Hey Everyone!!

It's been a very FREEZING week here in Michigan. It's been the coldest it's been in like 30 years! So I feel honored to be a part of that!! 

So because it was so cold, President Brennan wanted us to not be out a lot door knocking. So we had lots of appointments this week, with the people we are currently teaching, returning members and members. It was a lot of fun. And we also did  lots of unplanned service opportunities.

For example, last Tuesday  Sister Martin  and I were trying to think of service opportunities that we could do and we thought it would be perfect to go out and scrape off the car windows. But when we went out there we realized that everyone's car windows were already scaped.

 As we were walking to our car we saw this guy shoveling out the snow off his car. And so we asked if he needed any help and he said that he needed help jumping his car. So we got out  of our car and parked right by his car and he had the jumper cables. We were able to jump his car and help him start it. We got a shovel and helped him shovel the snow off his car.  We were able to introduce ourselves and give  him and give him our card and told him that if he needed anymore service or if he wanted to learn more to just give us a call. We were able to help some other people get unstuck in the snow. And there were also other people who helped us in the snow as well. It was the perfect opportunity to talk to people. I love these unplanned service opportunities.

We were able to teach K a couple of times too. We met her while door knocking a couple of weeks ago. She is seriously so sweet. We have had two lessons with her so far and she is really liking it. I am so excited to see where this goes. 

We were also able to meet with a family of 4 that we also met while door knocking. And we only taught them once but we will be teaching them the second discussion tonight! I am so excited. 

We taught another family of 4. And it first was just the son S and his friend D that was interested. But then his mom K and sister K became interested. They are all willing to learn more. So we set up another appointment to see them this Saturday. 

This last week we were able to get 9 new people to teach! So we will be crazy busy teaching a lot of people but we are so ready and excited. 

We also have a baptism this Saturday for a family of 4. It's a returning member's kids. And we are so excited about that!! I cannot wait for them to enter the waters of baptism. 

I am just loving this work!! I am loving the people!! And I love being a missionary :) Thank you all for your love and support and prayers! I can truly feel them!! Hope you all have a fantastic week :)
