So for the week! you all have basically seen our waterton trip in a nut shell! that night we contacted a family we were referred to and now have 4 gators on date!!!! "miracles happen once in a while, if you belieeeve!!!"(: haha!! it was amazing the spirit was strong and then after that we finally got in to teach a little couple that we have been trying for forever!!! She even started crying!!! But as with all things good there has it's opposite and the rest of the week was kind of a gongshow. We worked hard but satan was too. People have just been getting hit with the Raymond flu bug and it really slows us down. It hit Keller and the people we were teaching. Although we still saw some miracles. and met new people and things. i will let you know more this week how all that unfolds! Thursday our Relief Society Pres in 2nd ward got bit by a cat and she was getting pumped with fluids and her finger was swollen and she had a hectic week to say the least! But she is rabie free!!! lesson learned, just shoot mangey animals!! haha! i also have really been learning this week not to stress little things that we have no control over. The most important thing we can do in our lives in trust in God and try our best each day. I have found that I am very hard on myself. When i take a moment to pray and to think things go a lot better and i am led more by the spirit and not just by rash decisions. I still have a long ways to go with this though(: A ton of missionaries have been coming home from their missions and it is the best thing! It has raised missionary work here! People are thinking about it more and are getting more motivated!! i hope that motivation doesn't die!! So i would challenge all of you to find missionary opportunites and refer the missionaries and pray for experiences when you can share the gospel! Always have BOM and pass along cards in your jockey box(:
So sister Keller has had a rough week between being sick, she also dumped all of her orange julius all over her lap and face while we were having lunch at the Wilde's house!! haha! and also we got asked yesterday if English is both of our native language! hahaha!
We went in to Lethbridge Friday to get some new and safe tires on our car! haha! We don't get in there very often so naturally we had some things to shop for! We went into a store called the bay and may or may not have been buying Christmas package stuff and a lady says come and put your stuff on the counter! and i'm like oh alright, get up there to pay and she is like paying for mine and Keller's stuff!!! I don't know how we get so blessed but y'all better enjoy what you receive it was a blessing for sure!!!(:Then we came back and helped at Good Sam's and it was like a game show thing! it was hilarious! We always have a blast there! We taught one of my favorite families finally got sister keller in to meet them and their new indoor pig boris(: haha! Then at church on sunday we got called to teach gospel doctrine! It was on Temples and Family History Work. I didn't realize how much passion i had for that until i started talking about it! hopefuly i inspired people to get on it! That is just as important as finding people around us to accept the gospel!(: Well i love you all!
Love,
Sister Egbert
