Hope everyone is doing good. This week has been a fun one and a busy one. Not much really happened tell Wednesday when we had our weekly meeting with the rest of the District. So we have our meeting then we decided to go to lunch together and then travel back to our Areas. Since the Chapel in Kidderminster is close to the rail station we have the District meetings here. But anyway, this week everyone was really hungry so we went to lunch before our meetings. We went to Pizza Hut and had the all you can eat lunch buffet. Use you imagination, six Missionaries going into an all you can eat! Great for us Missionaries, but not for Pizza Hut. We walked out about an hour and a half later haven eaten 102 pieces of pizza or 12.75 pizzas. The bill came to £41 ($64) and we ate £90 ($141) worth of pizza. There are places here in Kidderminster that the Missionaries are banded from going to the lunch buffet. But not here at Pizza Hut........Yet.
The other thing that happened is we had a miracle tracking. We found a less active member who had just had a baby and just moved into our Area. How cool is that. Out of the hundreds of streets we could pick we picked that one. It shows that the Spirit can led us even when we don't recognize it. We also tried something new this week trying to find people. We did some street preaching! We made a poster and went into the Town Center of Kidderminster to talk to people. I held the poster while Elder Watt (I was on exchanges) went around with a white board with a question on it asking people "Have you ever wondered?" It was kind of fun.
Sunday I found out that the Kidderminster Relief Society is in the Daughters in my Kingdom book. They are right in the middle of the book. It is a picture from the early 1900s but still there. It was really cool to have the sisters in the Relief Society point that out to me. I remember really not paying attention to the pictures or much of the stories for that matter when my mom made us read it as a family. But I have looked at it since then and am learning from it about the history of Relief Society in the Church and how important it is.
I have found that the Lord will bring miracles when you least expect it. Just when you are about to break the Lord comes through. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and he will provide.
