 Hey y'all, how's everyone doing? This week has been bueno.

We got a chance to hear from, and talk to Sister Cook. She is the First Counselor in the General YW Presidency. She gave a very inspiring fireside, and was pretty cool to talk to a bit afterward.

We've had a few investigators have different concerns slowing down their process towards baptism. A lot have been family concerns. It has got to be hard to do anything without family support, which is why I'm so glad to have such a good, supportive family.

Another thing I'm glad for is the spirit. It makes missionary work so much more effective. A few nights ago, Elder Miller and I were walking to a lesson with Christian, who's (fingers crossed) getting baptized on Dec 27th. While we were walking, we got the impression to visit some investigators, Robert and Tammy on the way. It would make us late, but we felt it was something important. We also felt like singing a hymn to them. And y'all know it would need to be some pretty strong inspiration to get me to sing!

We popped in and sang "Did you think to pray?" It was a pretty amazing feeling. At the end of the song, Tammy had tears streaming down her face and Elder Miller and I both knew that was where we were supposed to be at that time. The lesson we were late for fell through, so we lost nothing by going there, we only gained strength to our testimonies on how the spirit guides. God answers everyone's prayers through all of us. We just have to act on those feelings.
