Dear Family and Friends,

As you may know, Elder L. Tom Perry passed away! I looked at that article about him on LDS.org and I found out a couple of awesome facts about him. I also like this quote from him. “I’m just a very ordinary man with an extraordinary calling to reach out to people and bear witness of the Savior,”

I just emailed 4 days ago, so there's not much more to report on. I was surprised the other day to get a call from Aunt Teresa because she was in Wichita wanting to visit me. Wichita is over 4 hours away from Liberal, so they'd have to drive quite a ways. It was so awesome to hear from her! But I had to keep the call super brief because I know we can't have family or friends call/visit us. It's one of the many rules in the missionary handbook to help us keep our minds focused on the mission. So heads up if you were thinking about visiting me in Kansas! :)

We are doing so good in Liberal, Kansas. We've just been talking to so many nice people! Actually lately we've been exactly at the right place at the right time. It's been so crazy and we know that Heavenly Father puts them right in our path.

We had a miracle just this past week with this girl named Bianca. We were pulled up to her house and it looked like no one was home. We said a prayer, looked back and someone pulled up behind us. Turns out the person we originally were going to visit, moved out. So Bianca just barely moved into the house a couple days prior (she has a couple of roommates). We talked to her for not even 5 minutes and then we invited her to come have a church tour. She actually seemed really interested. When we went into the chapel, she said she felt awesome! We told her that was the spirit. It was so amazing. We invited her to be baptized (of course) and she accepted! This was such an amazing miracle from the Lord.

We got a referral from a member of someone in a different ward. They just said that she wanted to learn more about genealogy. Her name is Kathy, and she's not too interested in joining the church. But that will soon change. She has a lot of medical problems and I know she was kept alive for a reason. She literally has 9 lives and she's told us just some amazing experiences she has had. All she can say is,"I know that God lives." We love her and she has the most positive attitude even though she's been through so much.

Alma 13: 28-29 "But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear, and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; Having faith on the Lord; having a hope that ye shall receive eternal life; having the love of God always in your hearts, that ye may be lifted up at the last day and enter into his rest."

This past week has been so amazing! Thanks so much for your prayers! 

con amor,
