Sister D 1.21.13 Letter- "Lydia's Girls"

Dear Family and Friends,

Today here in Minnesota the windchill will be about oh only negative 30 degrees. No big deal. Yesterday we were blessed to have two investigators at church. We had planned on having three at church however the two that came were not at all part of those we thought would show up. About an two hours before church started we get a call from a referral that we have had in our phone for a while. Her name is Lydia. Lydia told us that she would like for her two daughters to come to church and so she thought she would give us a call to set that up. We were shocked. So, we immediately went to work trying to find someone who could give them a ride. (mission rules say that we can't give any investigator a ride so that's why we had to find someone else) We found one just about an hour before church started. Her daughters are named Natkitta who is 16 and Meldria who is 5. They are from the Ivory Coast in Africa and have family members who are members of the church. The Lord truly blessed us that we would be able to have someone join us at church.

It sounds like everyone is doing great at home. I'm glad! and Ma I don't really have any suggestions as to what would be a good thing to put in an apartment. Desks are defiantly something that I wish we had in ours but because we are in a members home I can't complain.

Besides being super cold here everything else is going good. We are busy which is great. We had some great lessons with investigators this week and are really blessed by having an awesome ward that is so willing to go with us to lessons and help us in any way they can. There is such an added Spirit when a member is there to testify of the truths that we find in the Church.

I wish you all the best and I love you all!

Love from the frozen,
