So this week has been a crazy one and an awesome one all at the same time. On Wednesday I went to a place called Escalante for an exchange to work with Sis. Rosina. It was fun. It was cool to get to work in a different area for a day. The time went by so fast. We taught some great lessons and I met some wonderful people. It was a good experience. I was exhausted though at the end of it. The rest of our week was intense. We decided to work really hard this week since it's really the last of the transfer (we should be getting the announcement today or tomorrow). And we worked our butts off. We got 27 new investigators this week! And we exceeded almost all of our goals. Including getting 7 investigators at church!!!! That was the highlight. On Saturday I decided to fast because I knew we really needed to get people at church. Well I started my fast Saturday afternoon until Sunday afternoon. We had 8 teachings that Saturday! That was amazing. And then on Sunday we had 7 investigators at church. It was the greatest testimony builder to me of fasting. And the Verana's were there! We actually both started squealing and had a little melt down because of that. And then this old woman who is a incredibly stubborn catholic lady showed up and we NEVER thought she would be there especially when she basically told us she probably didn't have time. MIRACLE and THEN other investigators started coming. It was amazing. I can't even describe that day. I was just overwhelmed. All I did was exercise my faith and HUGE miracle occurred. Look out Brother of Jared! It was awesome. So now we have lots of investigators and I am just excited to find more and I really hope that I get to stay here and that I will get to see the harvest for all of them. Everything was so directed by the Lord that I am just excited to see what else He can do here. Let me just say that my testimony jumped about 16 stories high this week. I wish I had more time to really write profiles about all of these people, but I just don't. But when I get home I can't wait to tell you all stories about all of these people. Yeah, I'm going to be one of those returned missionaries that expects everyone to listen to my stories and care about every detail... hahahaha. No, not really, but I am excited to share a little bit of this world with all of you. Everyone should come here and visit and I promise you it would change your life. It's the most beautiful place with the most beautiful people. Well I love you all and hope you enjoy the last week of September! I can't believe it's almost October! Have fun watching General Conference, I won't get it until a week later... :( Enjoy! Sister Jackson |
