However, with that said, we have 3 people that we are going to put on baptismal date this week! Oh what a blessing that is going to be. They will be such great additions to the branch here. They all know that the gospel is true and are so grateful for it. We had so many lessons here this past week and we are just go go go but I know it is exactly what the Lord wants me to do.
Wasn't conference just amazing!? I loved how much it talked about the Plan that Heavenly Father has for each of us. I know that he is providing a way for each of us to improve and become the people he knows that we can be.
My new companion. Her name is Sister Bair. She is from Washington. She is taller than me :) Shocker I know! She has long blonde hair and I am greenie busting her! (Mission slang for I am her companion right after training.) She is so wonderful. I love her so much. She grew up on a little farm and has 5 sisters and a brother.
Oh one quick awesome story. So we went out door knocking one afternoon and knocked into this girl name Sophie. We stood at her door and talked to us. She said she doesn't really think she believes in God because of all the crap that happens in the world. We talked for a good amount of time. She is married and has a 2 year old little boy. We got a return appointment with them.
We went over and sat and talked. They asked if we wouldn't pray with them as it makes them uncomfortable. So we continued on. I kept feeling prompted to share the 1st vision. I did and I didn't feel like it went any where.
As we were getting up to leave I asked if we could come back and her husband said well I work with someone who is LDS so I can just ask him questions. Then Sophie said well if you don't hear from me by Thursday, you can stop by and we can have a lesson in the Afternoon. That shocked us both as we weren't expecting them to let us come back. I know that something touched her though. She was very open with us which I thought was amazing.
Heavenly Father Knows us all individually and knows what we need. He will always guide us and for that I am eternally grateful. I loved how in conference it talked about how to recognize and feel the spirit. I pray that all of you will review these talks as they are so real.
I love you all so much!
I hope you have a wonderful week :)
Love Sister Milar
