Transfers were last week and Sister Perry finished her mission and went home. It was sad but she is going to do amazing things back in AZ. I stayed in Flint and now I am with Sister Craig. And she is amazing! I am super grateful for her and the fearlessness she has when it comes to campus contacting. We have been doing so well! I have already learned so much from her. I'm not going to lie though its been pretty hard taking over the area, I felt super unprepared but the Lord has been helping me so much! I'm glad He has my back! I have felt so many promptings to go somewhere or do something that ins't in the norm but we have done it and seen some really cool miracles. One was on Saturday night, we split our p-day between Saturdayand Monday so we can be on campus everyday. So we went out to eat for p-day and walked around the mall for a couple minutes. While we were walking around the mall we crossed paths with this older woman and her dog a couple of times. Finally I stopped her and introduced myself. Her name is Lois. She just lost everything, her husband died, she lost her house and her land. She now lives out of her car or something. She wasn't interested in our message right away but we stayed and talked with her anyway. She was so sweet. She wanted us to pray with her so we did and she gave us great big hugs. It was really cool to feel love for her though she didn't want to meet with us. I bet next time she sees sister missionaries she is going to remember us and go talk to them. This was just her first tap.
We got a referral from some missionaries serving in our ward, her name is Sherry. They taught her a couple of times and then she fell off the radar. She called them and asked if they could meet but she had moved so they sent her to us. When we went in for her first lesson we sat down and she right away mentioned baptism. She said that it was something she still wanted to do. Then her cousin Desiree came in and asked us what sets our church apart from any other church. As we taught the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to them the spirit filled the trailer. Sherry testified of the first vision to her cousin and they both set baptismal dates. It was amazing! One thing my dad told me about a week before I came out was that every time the first vision is about to be shared satan tries to stop it again. We saw that in their lesson! Desiree's dog started to trow up as we shared Josephs experience. It was actually really gross and kinda funny.
Anyway! I hope you all had a wonderful week!
Love Sister Witt
