It has been the longest weekend of my life. 

I trained at zone conference Friday, went on exchanges Friday-Saturday, spoke in sacrament meeting on Sunday

So my week just consisted of lots and lots of fervent prayer. That stuff works.

Sister R and I had a great experience on Wednesday. We found that we had a lack of plans because of some rescheduling. We had our afternoon wide open. So we knelt in prayer and asked Heavenly Father to show us where to go. We both came back from that prayer with the same street name. So we went there. And found 2 new investigators. Awesome.

Zone conference was great. Lots of emphasis on charity. Any challenge + charity = More charity. Charity, the pinnacle of all the attributes of Jesus Christ, is the fix-all solution. It should be our only motive. 

Sunday we had dinner at our ward mission leader's home. He invited a family over to eat with us. After dinner Sister R and I taught the restoration and invited this family to learn for themselves if our message is true. They declined. No awkwardness. No uncomfortable feeling ensued. We left their home to go to our other appointments that evening. It was such an awesome experience! I am so impressed with this family. Brother C understands what Elder Andersen taught when he said,  " Please don’t see your efforts to share the love of the Savior with another as a pass/fail test with your grade determined by how positively your friends respond to your feelings or invitation to meet the missionaries. With our mortal eyes, we cannot judge the effect of our efforts, nor can we establish the timetable. When you share the love of the Savior with another, your grade is always an A+."

Transfer calls are Saturday, for your information. 

Carry on, carry on, carry on. 

Make it a great week. 

Step out in faith. Trust God. Be obedient. Live such that the Spirit may be your constant companion. 

See ya next week,
Sister Gore
