I've seen fire and I've seen rain...


Well for those of you who don't know, Hurricane Harvey tried to wreck Texas...and did! We are safe here in Alvin, no flooding, no deaths, just fire and rain! Houston and surrounding areas are destroyed, including parts of our area that have suffered serious flooding. Everything is shut down here, but we are OK as far as food and water. So don't worry about the stories I am about to tell. The Lord is watching over us and President Hall is very aware of everything that is going on, we don't make a move unless he knows first. The week started off pretty good, we found a new investigator. Then on Thursday our apartment caught fire, there was a fight two doors over from us and someone tried to kill someone else with gas. Nobody died, but it caught the whole building on fire. Elder Sibaja and I are fine, and we were able to recover 95% of our items. Our neighbors lost everything, so we are doing just fine! During this time we were instructed to prepare to evacuate, as Harvey came closer. Nothing but blessings we have received and God is on our side! We may be getting moved to Houston to help with the flooding once everything settles down. God is good and ALL powerful. I testify of that! If only I could tell ya'll more stories, but mom would freak! lol.

"...concerning the coming of Christ..." Alma 34:2

 Hermana Yungfliesch is going home this week ( us at a baptism for the sisters investigator)

Wow, what an amazing week! The Lord has shown for His hand clearly this week, we have been blessed to be able to find many people to teach! It all started Monday with finding this awesome English speaking fellow, who is super interested and a truth seeker. We then came across a lady who is just super sweet and really willing to learn even though life is hard. Another guy is really cool and really interested in the Book of Mormon. Last but seriously not least is a wonderful woman we found here at a garage sale! She is just amazing and really ready to learn. I also bought nice pair of boots off her for $10 (#Bdaymoney). Elder Sibaja and I are working super hard here and our efforts are continually shown, hopefully we can finally get some baptisms rolling!





It's also been a rough week, I guess Satan is seeing our efforts too and is trying to shut us down, tons of people yelling at us, and for some reason we run into a lot of pastors now...they REALLY don't like us lolz. 
Love,

So many service hours #burnthosemiles

Helping our investigators move


Once more it's p-day somehow! We had a really tough week this week, some of our investigators were moving so we signed up to help them move and basically remodel their new house... so as far proselyting goes not much time. BUT, we were blessed for our diligent efforts with the little time we did have! We found 2 new investigators, and we had 5 people come to church and most of our investigators are still progressing really well! We have investigators that are husband and wife and are SUPER awesome. They started calling us theirs sons after a little bit because we spent so much time with them! I stinking love my area and the people here! Souls are precious people!
