Shortness.....

OK, so...err...like Ben says, I want to apologize for the shortness.  I read and enjoyed and was astonished and just really loved reading what you all had to say this week! 

This last Sunday we had stake conference and our stake president read a letter from his son who is serving in the Japan Fukuoka mission.  It went something like this: "dear family, I'm sorry, we've been really busy and I don't have a lot of time.  We had a miracle this week.  I'll write about it later.  I love you and sorry this is so short."  He then read another letter with more detail, but that is how I feel today.  Sorry! 

This week we had an amazing conference with Elder Whiting of the 70 and I feel more determined to seek revelation from the Lord so that I may teach with power from the Spirit.  Really, the Spirit is KEY to all that we do.  And I think that often times it is so quiet, unassuming, and gentle that I can miss it is I'm not paying attention.  We are entitled to revelation for ourselves and the people over whom we have been given stewardship.  WHOA.  That is a huge privilege and blessing. 

This week we have a mini zone conference in which we will receive training and i-Pads to assist in helping people progress towards baptism and hasten the work of salvation.  Join us next week to learn more about what that means--I'm excited to find out! 

I know that God is leading Minson shimai and I to people who are willing and ready to hear and receive the gospel.  We had a sister this week who told us that she couldn't meet with us on the day that she planned, but offered her entire days off schedule to us so we could meet.  I am grateful for the Lord's blessings and know that He is generously giving them to you, me, and all His children.

Much love!
