My dearest, most wonderful family and friends. Hello, hello, hello :)
I must say that this week. Was magnificent. Not because we found a million people who want to learn about God, not because nothing discouraging or bad happened, but I guess I just chose to change my attitude and be present.
Believe moments from this week:
1) ok so I teach online at this teaching center where people call in to answer calls. There were a BUNCH of missed calls that I have been working through over the past three weeks. Literally probably over 200 of them, my friends.
Nobody was answering :) I got really good at speaking the same voicemail! Anyways, I was on the LAST TEN calls and I said to Heavenly Father: ok. Please let someone pick up the phone. I believe You can make that happen.
Two people did. Not just one, but two :) were they interested in hearing a message about God??? In fact, they were not! HOWEVER, they answered and God answered my little prayer at the same time. Because I chose to ask and believe that He would :)
ONE MORE YAY!
2) Me and Sister Kim met a man named Nick at the visitors center and only talked to him for a moment. A few days later we saw him AGAIN and showed him a video and talked a lot and I just felt so strongly that he was soaking up all the good things we were sharing. We didn't get his contact info but we prayed that we would be able to somehow see him again.

A FEW DAYS LATER: (uber long story, my bad)
We are having a lesson in our area that we work in and are then searching for another old lady that needs some service and love. We are standing on the street corner looking up her address and BAM. Nick is sitting on the porch of the house right in front of us. He lives in our area. What. We talked to him and he's been a member his whole life but hasn't been to church in over a year. He wants to go back really badly and it was amazing talking to him.
I want to testify that God is a God of miracles. Sometimes they're big, like Nick, and many, many times they're small, like two answered phone calls. But, they are always there if we choose to look for them :) I love you all and encourage you to look for moments of joy in your week. Thank you for all you're doing. Don't give up on yourself or on God. Just believe :)
Love, Sister Call
p.s. I got an email saying that November 10th my assignment changes back to Czech! I have no idea what it means, but there is the information. I'm making the most of my time here for the next month, though. ALOHA!

Me and Sister Fisher who lives in the apartment toooo, me and my sister, Priscilla's roommate from Arizona, Sister Kim and I at acai bowls, yummy food with Sister Kim, cookies we tried to make with old flour and old vanilla that melted in the oven, we have no idea what happened
