(Elder Slade)
To the best friends and family a person could hope for!
We had a great week this week! The mission is FLYING by! We
had 3 exchanges this week, and it's been sweet! We saw some really cool
miracles. When I was in Balckfoot with Elder Vorwaller and Elder Cox, we felt
impressed to drive this one way, and we saw some people moving boxes out of a
U-haul. We immediately pulled over and started helping. One of the guys
immediately said, "You guys are freaking angels!" He was SO grateful,
as he had some health issues and was filling overwhelmed with all of the boxes.
We helped him for 40 min or so, and then he said he was interested in going to
church sometime with us! He said we could stop by the next day and visit him!
It was a miracle!
Meanwhile, in my area Elder Quigley and Elder Thomas were
seeing miracles as well! They felt impressed to visit this one lady we hadn't
visited before, and upon visiting they met her 11 year old son named Ezra. He
hadn't heard about Jesus Christ before, but the mom said that he could be
taught! We taught him again yesterday, and he said his first prayer, and it was
SO powerful! It was amazing!!
Both these experiences taught me a powerful lesson: miracles
can happen any time, as we exercise faith, are humble, and seek God's will. I
know that none of these miracles are coming of us, but coming of God. It is a
joy just being able to see His hand!
Love you all! Thanks for all your support!
