Miracles and Transfers!

 (Elder Slade)

To the best friends and family a person could hope for!

I am getting transferred! I'm really sad to see this area go. There are so many wonderful people I care about and love! I'll miss my companion Elder Thomas as well! But the Lord is taking me another way. I am getting sent to Ammon 2 to be companions with Elder Gurney. He is an amazing Elder, and I look forward to learning from him!

We had a cool experience with a kid we're teaching named Mousey this week. Mousey is the coolest kid you'll meet! It's been hard to get him to church however. In the past he had hated church, and even ditched the missionaries and church halfway through the meeting! 😂 But this week, we were able to get him a ride, and get him to church.  After the second hour, the first thing he said was, "That was AWESOME!! I want to come next week!" It is amazing to see how the Lord works on people, and helps prepare people to come closer to Him!

We also had a cool experience with our friends Gabe and Sadie as well. We had stop teaching them because their family had gotten way too busy! However we felt impressed to stop by this week and we caught him at just the perfect time. They said that they felt a noticable difference when they were doing the basics of prayer, reading the scriptures, and church. They want to start making it more of a priority for them, and we set up weekly meetings, and they came to church this Sunday!

I love being on a mission SO much! We see miracles and tender mercies every day! I love the people here in Idaho! I love the Gospel! I love the Lord! I love you all!
