Who believes in miracles?

Hey Family!!!

So it sounds like it was a great week for everyone! I was grateful to hear about all your experiences. It was exciting to hear about all the Christmas things happening! Looks like a lot of fun!


Things are great here though! We're having a great time! Elder Sewell and I are continuing to work hard and see some really cool miracles! We really are loving the work here!


So, our investigator has still been working in Brno, so we haven't seen him for a while, but we're still in contact, so he's doing fine still! We have seen some really cool things this week though!


We had some really good lessons, and really taught by the spirit. After we teach a really good lesson, I always feel so good inside, I feel the spirit, which just makes me feel so great, and I really want to work harder because of it! There is nothing quite like seeing the spirit work on someone, and see them really think, and ponder, and change because of it. We have such experiences all the time here!


In church, someone gave a talk on receiving revelation. I really could see how by doing these things, I have been a lot more open to revelation and the spirit! One thing I think that has really helped, is better living the word of wisdom. I have such a big testimony, that when we go out of our way to eat healthier, and to avoid unhealthy things, that we feel so much healthier, but we also are so much more receptive to the spirit. It's really such a great blessing to recognize change in oneself!


So the biggest miracle of this week, was an investigator who Elder Heath and I taught 3 months ago here. He had a lot of work, and kind of fell out of the picture, but we recently started teaching him this week again! He is so prepared I cannot believe it! He came into our lesson, asked for a new Book of Mormon (he lost his old one), said he'd start reading again, said he'd come to church, asked when it would be ok for him to be baptised, asked if it was ok for him to bring a friend to a lesson, and asked if we could meet daily. That's something that doesn't happen often. It was really just such a blessing to get to meet him again, and to see that there really are such prepared people here!


We're still teaching a lot of other people, some progressing slowly, some not so much. It's just so great to be able to meet and teach people about what is so important to me though. I really love this great work! I feel my love growing for all those around me, I truly do feel concern for them and their lives. It's a great time to be a missionary!


Weather, it's been snowing a lot here! I love it! It had been -10 Celcius a few times already, which is pretty cold it you don't know (about 14 Farenheight). It's a lot better when it snows though. It getting a lot more Christmasy though. I love it!
Hope you all have great weeks! Love you all, and I'm excited to hear from you next week!
