Listening to the Spirit - Sister Pack


Hola!

This week was awesome.  I had exchanges with a Hermana that came into the mission with me.  We had tons and tons of fun!  Her name is Hermana Sweet.  She is rocking and a tall blonde! I always get the blonde girls. lol.  Anyways, I learned so much from our time together.  We were teaching so well together because we were following predicad mi evangelio and the things that our mission president has given us. It was amazing to feel the spirit flow the way it did through our lessons. It was way amazing because we had a lesson where Hermana Sweet felt it to be important to promise a lady who couldn’t go to church (because of a job) that she would make double her salary by Saturday.  When it came out of her mouth the spirit filled the area.  She accepted the challenge to go to church and put her faith to the test. Hermana Sweet called a few days later to tell me that she had made triple the money and someone had left clothes for her children on the doorstep.  It was the most amazing thing I have watched on my mission thus far. I know this is the Lord’s work, and I know I am just an instrument in his hand. 

We also had another awesome experience with another man that we passed in the street.  We got a strong feeling to talk to him, but he was getting on the bus on the other side of the street! Hermana Parker was bummed out, but with my quick thinking I flagged down the bus and we got on. We then waited a few minutes so it wasn’t awkward and then started talking to him.  He asked us to come to his home and that the elders had taught him before and he liked what they said!  We got his information really fast because we realized that we had gone out of our area and got dropped off at a Cathedral hall... haha that was hilarious with all the Catholics staring at us.  We started walking back, content in our hearts that we had followed the prompting of the Lord.  

We are excited to start working with this man! I am grateful for the Holy Ghost and the ability I have to have him as a companion.  Well, got to go back to work! 

Love you guys,
Hermana Pack
