"God's Idea of Mischief"-Email 11/4/2013

God's Idea of Mischief:

Heavenly Father works behind the scenes in ways that we can't even know. One example: This week we were contacting, and a lady literally ran into my companion (awkward). We contacted her and as we introduced ourselves and asked if she had beliefs in Jesus Christ, she got a super weird look on her face. I thought maybe she was offended at first, but then she said, "Oh. We are actually members." Apparently they are members that just haven't attended since they came from their country 10 years ago! They have been wanting to attend here for years but have never done it, not having the network or the knowledge of where to go. So God placed us right in their path and we were able to help them. The 19 year old daughter is set to be baptized November 24 and they began to talk in our first meeting about being sealed in the temple, as an eternal family. I know that there are no coincidences, and as we believe in God's hand, our lives begin to be filled with joy and happiness!
I am so happy to be part of this work. This is probably the shortest weekly letter I have ever written, but let's face it, all of you have read at least 7 other missionaries letters this week by now. There are 80,000 of us... :)

Love you all, I know the Book of Mormon is the word of God and I know that His church in its fulness has been restored to the earth!
