I just want to start out and give a big thanks to all of my family and friends and how much they mean to me. It is really special to have such an incredible support system and so many prayers going in my behalf. Know that I love and appriciate each one of you and that is what I am grateful for this thanksgiving! It will be nice to actually celebrate thanksgiving this year!
So this week we had a super great experience! We were walking to the car to go out proselyting and there was a women (Mrs. Green) going to her car. She is about 65 I would say, African-American, and a rather large figure. I went up and started talking to her, and she asked me a question. I was blessed with the impressions of the spirit on how to respond, and she just sat there for a minute, staring at the ground thinking. She then looked at me and said, 'Wow, that was deep! You just hit me real good right there.' We then asked her if she would let the English elders stop by and visit her. She said she would love for it. Anyways, the next night, we come home from proselyting and I hear, 'Mista Rawberts, Mista Rawberts!' It was Mrs. Green yelling from her apartment. She told us to come over for a minute. We went that way and she handed us a home made sweet potato pie! She said, ' I hope you fellas like it, and mista rawberts, I been thinking about what you said the otha day. You really got me thinkin.' It ended up being such a special experience for me, and the pie was super great!
All is going great here. I continue to enjoy every day and the incredible experiences I am having. God is really guiding me in the direction he wants me to go. How incredible it feels to be an instrument in His hands. I love you all and hope that all is going well back at home or in the mission field!
