Partake of the bread of life, or else you're toast

Hello people! So this week we past by a church that had that line on their sign. Pretty funny!

We've had such a good week :) we do a lot of knocking on doors and prayers with people to help them feel the spirit in their home. It's really cool to see people recognize the Spirit and desire to have that in their life all the time!

We are working with a girl named Jessica who is our bishop's sister. Our bishop just got called and he is 31, been married for 2 years, and has been a member of the church since he was 15. he was such an example to his family, that it inspired Jessica to be baptized! That will be this next sunday and we are so excited for her. She really has been prepared by the Lord for this truth and is ready to make this commitment with God in her life!

It is starting to rain less and less here so hopefully we get out of this hurricane season without anything. Even though, not going to lie I wish i got to experience even just a tiny one! maybe next year.  It is starting to cool down though and it's constantly 85 degrees every day. Perfect weather :)

We have a lot of people we come across here as we knock on doors! this week we knocked into a lot of Haitians that spoke english. Interesting thing about haitians, the creole language is very boring. English is a colorful language and creole is black and white. So they are used to hearing things straight forward. So we've learned to not be casual with them and to just get the point across! they are really kind people though.

It's been a good one! Hope everyone is doing well. Love you all!

So hurricane Erica was supposed to happen this week! turns out it flipped around and decided to head another direction. Guess I'll have to experience that this next month some time! for my Wyoming people, all the locals here tell me that they would rather experience a hurricane than a snowstorm. So they think we have it worse. I would have definitely guessed the hurricane would be worse!

This week we saw many miracles! So about 3 weeks ago Sis. Morrow and I were biking to an appt and there was an old lady that had her hazard lights on and she was in the middle of the road. We stopped and pushed her car to the side of the road and she was sweating a lot because her A/C was off. We gave her some applesauce that we had, some water, and in invite to church. Well, 3 weeks later, she came to church! and one hour of church talked about tithing and fast offerings so she paid some fast offerings! We will be going back and teachin her this week.

Our progressing investigator named Natalie came to church this week which is a blessing! she has had a lot of car probs and hasn't been able to but she came and all the speakers talked on things that were so important for her progression in learning.

Yesterday for the first time since i've been here, we saw the ocean! Florida doesn't smell the best so it was awesome to smell the salt water coming off the surface.

I get to stay in West Palm for another transfer which is a blessing! We're finally starting to figure out how everything with the ward and area works!

I challenge everyone to notice the little miracles you see in your day! I've seen a big change in my gratitude towards our Heavenly Father by writing down the little things He does for me. I love our Savior Jesus Christ so much and I'm so grateful I get to be a part of His work. I know that He is always there to help and bless us, we just have to be humble and ask for it. Not only ask for it, but be willing to accept the answers He gives us! Love you all and may God bless :)

RE: HURRICANE ERICA haha just kidding.

, hi Sweetie your email could not have come at a better time. It's so exciting to hear about your people. You are in my prayers & on the prayer roll at the temple all the time

. I woke up today to my sewer clogged and sewer water in the furnace room & the hall downstairs. I was on my way To Teisas and had a meltdown. I had a realtor's tour schedule for Thurs.   have done everything I can do to sell the house, nothing was working.  I was in tears when I got to Teisas. I had called a plumber and knew it was going to cost a fortune to fix. I picked up Court and took her to preschool. Got a text from T that said " Have you read Kylie s email today. I pulled over and pulled it up. Needless to   say it made me cry so hard I couldn't see. I sat there and thought about how many blessings I have been blessed with & felt ashamed of myself. I told HEAVENLY Father how sorry I was & how much I appreciate all I have.

I went to lunch for my visiting teachers.

I told the girls my story.. Linda Newman one of the ladies I visit, told me I have insurance through the city if the problem is outside. It was so it isn't going to cost me a penny  to have it fixed. Tender mercies. And an angels reminder.  Thanks for letting me lean on your testimony    love you so much.

 Keep up the good work.  Gram
