POWER IN WORDS

FAMILY AND FRIENDS HELLO
I just want to tell you all quickly about this guy we met on the street. 
We stop him. Tell him we teach about god. and he starts talking, and my mind was blown. 
He said two years ago he was in a real rough situation drugs, alcohol, lots of bad things. 
One day he goes to his drug dealer and his dealer says to him "I THINK I FOUND GOD"
He gave it all up. Drugs, alcohol, everything, and he, like his dealer found God. Man, I cannot even tell you the power that people have on other people. This guy changed because his drug dealer found God. 
Friends, remember the power and influence you have on others. 

THE BIGGEST MIRACLE OF THE WEEK
EVA WAS BAPTIZED.
Last thursday Prezident McConkie came to town and on Friday Eva was baptized. 
We then were helping Eva get changed after she was baptized and Sis. Parsons turns to her and says "EVA, You are 100 percent perfect right now" Eva looks up, looks in the mirror with the biggest smile that her smile turned to laughter and she just giggled for a minute. Because SHE REALIZED how truly powerful her decision was. WOW I am just speechless about it all. And on sunday she recieved the Gift of the Holy Ghost. Ahhhhh, I love missionary life. 

LAST SUNDAY,
We met this girl on the streets. We were talking and I could not get the word I was trying to say out of my mouth. So I apologized to her and told her I dont speak very good Slovak. She then asks us where we are from, We answered..
AND SHE FLIPPED
She started rejoicing.

 "YOU SPEAK ENGLISH"
"OH MY GOSH, Do you know how rare it is to find people who speak English here?"
It was really cute. Then we asked her if we could meet this week. 
AND SHE CAME
currently she is living a vegan life so we got hot chocolate and she got ginger ale and we talked. and she came to game night and was just so GREAT!

Well lets just say that yesterday was a MIRACLE. So we have this guy who we are meeting with, and usually we meet him during the week at this cafe, BUT this week he asked if we could meet on Sunday. Trying to keep the Sabbath Day Holy we asked if we could meet somewhere else. Turns out he is afraid of crowds and that cafe is the only place except for a park. So we are planning on a park and we wake up and it is POURING RAIN.
 literally pouring. 
So crap we are going to the cafe. 
So we get there. and the waitress comes out and asks if we need anything.
We told her we were waiting. 
Our friend came. And for the WHOLE HOUR the WAITRESS NEVER CAME BACK! 
Oh yeah. GOD IS SOOO GOOD.
I just LOVE SLOVAKIA. I am so indebted. 
Search for miracles, because they are there and god is just waiting for you to open your eyes. 
Have a great week
