This has been a very very crazy week! The flu is going around and almost all of my investigators have been sick! None of them have been able to keep appointments! We had exchanges on Friday and I got to drive my Sister Training Leader, Sister Madsen to the urgency care center because she had a huge swollen eye ( we still don't know how she got it..), meanwhile my companion Sister Parker and her companion Sister Starke were at home with a temperature, major bathroom issues, and throwing up! It was so sad! We got Sister Madsen's eye taken care of and she is doing so well. Sister Parker and Sister Starke both received beautiful priesthood blessings and are finally feeling better today.
So for three days Sister Keller and I have been in a trio with Sister Madsen and we have been running both ares! We have been so busy! We found two new investigators in the Burbank area and one of them, Greg, helped to create the titanic movie! He is very solid and is going to come to church with the missionaries next week! We lost contact with our investigator Dwayne Johnson (not the Rock Johnson) so we stopped by his house. His phone had stopped working and his car battery was broken and that was why he wasn't answering our texts. He was having a hard day and thought we had forgotten about him when we showed up to see him! We have a lesson with him this week and he is still on date to be baptized!
With yesterday being fast Sunday, I decided to pay a little extra fast offerings in hopes of receiving an answer to one of my prayers. I came home from church and promptly knocked over a box with all my Christmas candy in it all over the floor. As I was cleaning it up I found a little while envelope with my name written on it. I opened it and found a Walmart gift card that I had never seen before with the same amount of money that I had paid extra to my fast offerings! Heavenly Father's hand is in everything we do. I don't know who sent me that card but I do know I needed to find it when I did.
I love you all and hope you are having an awesome new year!
Love, Sister Howard
