Hey Y'all,
This week was about the same as last week. We did a lot of finding. Which is great, just not very eventful.We went on exchange on Saturday and I stayed in our area. I loved it, it really showed me how much I do know the area. Its crazy that this is week 4 of transfer 3! I can't believe how fast time is moving, its almost 2017! We met with a new investigator named Charles this week, it was a really great lesson and Sebastian was able to be there for it. It helped him see how much he knows about the Gospel even though he hasn't bee baptized for that long. Charles is looking for truth and we were able to teach him the restoration and give him the Book of Mormon. I know that he will find truth in there! I'll let ya know what happens with him.
Do you remember Eliza? She kinda disappeared for a while and we were finally able to see her on Sunday. She came to the Blessings Fireside at the church and was really touched by the message and the music. The fireside was a was to get the relief society in the stake together and learn the theme for then next year. One of the women that spoke talked on hope. She spoke about paper and watercolor paint. She explained that when painting with watercolors you have to tack the paper down to hold it in place so that there aren't ripples when it dries. She applied this message to our lives. We are the paper, the tacks that hold us in place are the scriptures, prayers, going to church, or families, and the paint is trials and hardships. The master painter knows what tacks to use and where to put them to hold the paper in place, they also know of what paint to use to make the piece of paper into a masterpiece. The paint or trials eventually dry up and leave us better or more beautiful than before. But we must have the tacks holding us in place to make sure we dry flat and straight and nice. With that being said keep doing those things you are doing to hold you in place!
I love you all and hope your week is great!
Love Sister Witt
