Week 72: Homeward Bound

God is great. This week has been such a beautiful week and I am so grateful that our loving Heavenly Father has blessed us sooo much. I will have to tell you more details on THURSDAY but I just wanted to let you know that I love the this gospel. I love the happiness that it has brought in my life and the lives of others. This is the Church of Jesus Christ and He guides us and helps us to return safely to our Heavenly Father. I know that He listens to our prayers.
 
I want to share an awesome experience that I had while on exchanges in Maastricht. We had just gotten out of a lesson and we didn't have anything until 8 or so that night. Sister Reeder just looked at me and said I feel like we should drop by some flowers to this less active that lives nearby, would you mind if we go to the store quickly and get some flowers and then drop them by. I said "guuurrl that is a fine idea!" WE got flowers and biked to her house and then rang on her doorbell. She lets us in and she looked kind of surprised and out of breath. But we thought nothing of it. We sat down and started talking and then randomly this member said "I am so glad you guys are here. I was just having a freak out moment (she has depression and other medical problems) and running up and down and I couldn't stop myself. So I prayed to God that He would help me and 5 minutes later you guys rang on my doorbell." We were so shocked. THat my firends is how Heavenly Father answers prayers. As we are open and receptive to the Spirit, we can be a blessing to others. I hope that we all can continue to strive for that Spirit. I am so sorry for my short email but I will be seeing you all soon. Thank you for you support and love! I love you so much!!! (:
 
Oh by the way sister Maughan is staying in Utrecht and is going to be training....AAHHHH. She is going to to great!! We should definitely pray for her.
 
LOVE YOU! THANK YOU!!!!!!
 
Liefs,
