More Miracles!



Good morning y’all!

What a week the Lord has given us! Just look outside and see the miracles and the blessings the Lord has given us. The trees the air and the life that He has given! How I love this earth and the freedom that we have.

It’s been an amazing week! Elder Wahlen and I have just busted our behinds trying to accomplish what the Lord expects of us. We have been calling and stopping by and looking and tracting and contacting like crazy this week! And we have offered many prayers to the Almighty God this week and He has heard our prayers! We achieved 20 member present lessons that have been sit down for real lessons! I love the Lord and I know that it couldn’t have happened without divine help and assistance. This is ground breaking! Not in very many places have companionships been able to achieve this! I boast not of myself but of the God I worship!

Erica Smith is doing really well. We had a little mishap with her yesterday before church. So she texted us and told us that she is coming late to church. And she is being prepared to be baptized on Saturday and by rules that we have to follow if she didn’t come to church 2 times we can’t baptize her because she’s only been to sacrament 1 time. And she didn’t like that we were going to have to push her date back a week or so. And she got really upset. It shook Elder Wahlen and I both up because we gave her our heart basically. We only want what is best for her and for her family and it almost killed us watching her leave and want nothing with the church. But we prayed mightily and pleaded with the Lord for help yet again.... And she isn’t lost. She agreed to keep meeting with us and I have never felt so sad on my mission before and never so happy to see someone come back to the Lord :)

My good buddy Paul K had another seizure at church again yesterday... But it’s really amazing to see him. It doesn’t matter where we are he always finds us and lets us know that he isn’t feeling well.... And it’s a blessing. Whenever he tells us that he isn’t feeling good it’s a matter of seconds before he is knocked out basically and we are always there to help him and assist him. Angels and other heavenly beings are there watching over Paul. 

Miracles happen every day. As we seek ask and pray for them they will happen. I invite you to seek the out miracles the Lord is blessing you with and I promise that they will happen!

I hope you start to feel better. I’ve been praying for you so I hope you can feel them :)

With much respect and love,
Elder Macoubrie
