Friends and Family:
This week I learned: "Trust your inner goodness and you'll love where it takes you. " As I have followed what my heart and soul tells me, I've come to L O V E where it is taking me. It's taking me to my Savior, Jesus Christ. Tomorrow is all about love and I can't wait to spread the Pure Love of Christ to E V E R Y O N E. I think that is one of my favorite parts about being a representative of the Savior; helping others to feel His love. Spend a few minutes between all the roses, chocolates, and dates to spread His love tomorrow.
Thank you to each person who sent a quick Valentine note or "like" to me. My heart was F I L L E D with love and gratitude for those who are a part of my life.
Wow, this past week was just amazing. I love it with my whole heart. ❤️ I'm just going to dive right into it. (Ps; thank you to those who pray for the missionaries to be guided, we really felt that this week).
As we were out working on Tuesday morning , we knocked into J. We said probably two words to her, she began to cry, shared personal stories about death in her family, and told us to come in. So we decided to teach her the Plan of Salvation. She loved it and told Heavenly Father in prayer that she knew it was true. We saw her Thursday, Friday, and Saturday too. J's heart is so open and so full of love for the Lord. We love our J.❤️ She radiates with the love of God. Her husband isn't too religious but he definitely is warming up to us. (Secretly, he loves us like we are his kids. It's so sweet haha.) I wish I could accurately express how we feel about J. Snippet from my comps email (: "She was tearing up the whole time and in the end she prayed thanking Heavenly Father for "sending these two angels my way". The whole time she was telling us of all these tragedies in her life, you could see the pain in her eyes. But at the end of her prayer, we asked how she felt. "I feel peace. I don't feel pain anymore"
Thursday as we planned for exchanges, I went to change come plans on my side when I had a distinct feeling not to move a potential to the evening. Not thinking much of it, I went out the exchange without thinking much of it. We went to the potentials and met B who is the home healthcare aid. She let us in, shared the restoration, and got a return appointment for the next Tuesday. We felt promoted Saturday to call her and see if she was going to come to church. She shared that she would think about it and let us know...but she said she read up to 1 Nephi 4...which obviously made us freak out. ☺️ About two hours later we got a text that said, "Sisters, call me when you can." We called and she shared that she was making the decision to go to church because the longer she thought, the easier it would be to back out. She didn't have any church clothes so we grabbed a bag of our skirts and went to her house Saturday evening. We read some of 1 Nephi 4 and enjoyed the spirit together (: Sunday came and there was Breana, in her church clothes smiles and all :') She loved church! She said she felt like a member already. She also shared that she is up to 1 Nephi 9 already. We love B! ❤️
N and E are wonderful! E ended up in the hospital yesterday for his sickness that he was dealing with when Sister Alius and I first met him...so they weren't able to come to church. But we visited him to read the Book of Mormon and to sing to him since it was his Birthday! As we were there, N shared with their older sister all about how they love church and they feel like they have this huge family. Sister Deighton and I were trying to hold back the tears :') We love them. We also enjoyed dinner at their home on Wednesday! Also, N gave us cute little infinite rings!
K didn't make it to church yesterday. But she did write her baptismal date next to Alma 7:15 in her Book of Mormon lol. She is the cutest!
Jesus Christ is our Savior. True happiness comes from loving, serving, and following Him. He is our perfect example. Through His Atonement, we can find peace, happiness, joy, strength, forgiveness, and hope. I know this for myself because I'm learning to turn to Him. He is the way, the light, the truth. The Book of Mormon and Bible teach us of Him. I love Him. ❤ In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. Until next Wednesday, its transfers again! #what. Love you all! Thanks for the love and support!
XOXO,
Sister Detamore
