Hey so real quick I wondered if I could ask you to email me your favorite scripture at mark.howland@myldsmail.net? I am in a memorize kick right now and would love to hear some powerful and meaningful favs to use!

Two weeks in a row. 

Almost identical to last week's miracle, we exercised faith in God and his power wrought miracles. The divine mandate to our mission was to find those 4 people who need us and the promises were bounteous! So we are working hard to find everyone and at the same time help those we are currently teaching to progress and find the joy that can be found as we all come to Christ and follow him. If we had more time to do it, we would be fine but we never have enough time to do all that we want to do. 

So we found 2 new friends earlier in the week and now Sunday came and we needed to find 2 more to fulfill God's command. So Sunday night at 7:30 God led us to a wonderful family of 3 that welcomed us in and humbly listened and learned of him. God is teaching us that no matter what, his power is without bounds and he will work through us when we exercise pure faith in him without fear.

Miracles come over and over when there is faith. I love that I am learning this transfer that I need to trust in God completely. This week we are going to be better at trusting him throughout the entire week though and not just at the end haha No we really did work so hard and we are sanctifying ourselves so that we can have the spirit to be more and help others to feel it more!

I love you and thank you for your prayers and support,
