No Such Thing as Coincidences in the Lord's work! Tuesday:
Today was had so many perfectly timed miracles!
So we planned to go and visit one of our investigators, but on the way we ran into Sister Chiona's brother who was visiting the house just for that day! We started talking to him and started a discussion about the Book of Mormon to him. It was a powerful discussion that we had, and by the end, he wanted to read the Book of Mormon when he arrived home and seemed super interested in the church. THE most miraculous part though! Before he visited the house. He saw this very book in his relatives house and was wondering what it was all about! Then we came along and answered his very question, without him even asking it! IT was such an amazing miracle!

Then later on in the day we decided to go and visit an investigator who we haven't seen a quite some time. On the way there these two ladies called us over and said that they wanted to hear our message! So yes another miracle! We planned a day that we could meet with them and left them with some pamphlets! IT was soo cool!
So we arrived at our investigator's house, and she was home! She said that we were super lucky to see her because she was planning on being in South Africa at this time but plans fell through! We taught her about the Plan of Salvation and she was so intrigued! Afterwards we asked her what she understood and she said that she needed to repent and be baptized!! It was so awesome! And the spirit was so strong at that time!
In the evening we join with Bro Prosper and Bro Simba, (two members) To go and visit this amazing investigator K. He is an older man with a lot of problems on his back. I just want to explain our last visit that we had with him before we get into this one. So last week we decided to randomly visit this man. We called him and said he was busy but that we should stop by later. So we did, and we had the MOST spiritual discussion on the atonement of Jesus Christ and afterwards he said that he knows that we were the answer to his prayers. Also when we called him, he was out to search for some priest to help him with his problems, he wasn't able to find them that day, but he said God still answered him by sending us! And calling him at that exact time when he was out searching for help! It was such a cool experience!
So today we taught and introduced the Book of Mormon. And After we were done he came out and said that he was thinking about it since last visit and he wanted to join the church and get baptized! It was such an amazing miracle!
Blessings From Heaven! Wednesday:
So this day was also super super cool!
Today we went to Kingston again and we had the help from a member Sister Kufumu! It went pretty well. But there was this one instance when while we were trying to teach a lesson, all of these drunk people in Kingston kept interrupting us. It really didn't please my companion very well. So while we were going to visit another person (Sister Kufumu left by this time) One of the same drunk people came over to us and asked us for matches for his smoke. Obviously we didn't have any but he was so determined to find a match. We eventually left him and we stopped by to contact this girl at a little street shack shop. Then this drunk guy came over again. But for some reason he felt really sorry for what he did and bought us some fruit drinks and biscuits! It was super nice of him!
Then when we were done teaching, we started heading home. (Which is about an hour walk back to the town area.) We were walking down this one long road and then this tractor vehicle pulling some logs told us to hop on to hitch a ride! It was so nice because both me and my companion were exhausted by the day! And we were able to get a ride back almost the whole way! Which saved loads of time and energy! Again such an amazing miracle!
So from these experiences I know that there is no such thing as coincidences! And that God knows each and everyone of us and answers all of our prayers! Also I know that God truly does watch over his missionaries and cares for them! This week has really strengthened my testimony about this work! And I know it is true!
I hope all of you can be able to see the little miracles and blessings in your life and know that God is always there for you!
Well I love you all and hope that you had a great week!
