Our investigator G. had a pretty cool spiritual experience this week! The other day he asked us if we could send him more chapters from the Book of Mormon to read. We had a really busy day so we never got back to him. So he decided to pray about it. The spirit told him to read a speech.. he didn't know what speeches were in the BOM but he felt impressed he needed to read it. So he searched and found King Benjamins Sermon. Later the next day we left a note on his door and felt impressed to leave him the Mosiah Chapters for King Benjamins sermon! He was amazed we left him the same chapters that he felt impressed to read from his prayer. The spirit works in the coolest ways! Especially when we follow his promptings!
So we got a new car! After MLC (missionary leadership council) All the Zone leaders were informed they were getting brand new trucks! It was like Christmas! They were all parked out in a row in the parking lot. Then we were informed we were getting a new car too!! A new MOM VAN! ha ha. Sister Augustin laughed as we drove away and told us that was our future... as soccer moms ;) ha ha.
We went on 2 exchanges this week. One with Sister Tooley my old companion, so that was fun to see her! It was bike day and we woke up to a surprise... SNOW. So that was fun! ha ha.
The work is hastening and the Gospel here in Lubbock is spreading! Yesterday we had ward Conference and President Shumway( the stake president) talked about his vision again. "The vision of the vine" The vision he had years ago that there would one day be two stakes in Lubbock. And that soon will be a reality! Yesterday a new ward was created and 3 other ward boundaries were changed! These are exciting times!
The church is true my friends. My mission has really opened my eyes and taught me whats really important in life. I just hope I can truly find a balance when I get home!
Love you all!
Sister Turner
