Week 2 in WA

Sister Matthews had a harder week and has been some of the side effects of her concussion. She remains optimistic though, and says that being in a threesome is like a party everyday! Here's what else she has to say:

Hello everyone!

There hasn't been much progress this week. Every time we plan to see someone they're not home! Not a single person has opened their door to us this week! Even when we have appointments with them. We've been meeting with a lot of members this week instead and they've been giving us a lot of referrals so hopefully there will be more progress there. We've been meeting with a couple less actives this week which has been amazing. I think one of them got me sick! She has been trying to get over strep throat and when we were meeting with her I just started coughing out of nowhere! So this week my voice has been gone which has been a challenge. I don't think It'll progress into strep though. I'm already recovering. I can definitely see the hand of the Lord guiding me this week! Even though all of our appointments have fallen through we always meet someone on their street who is willing to hear our message! The Spirit definitely guided us to those streets even though we didn't go for our intended purpose. Washington has been beautiful! It's been pretty cloudy lately but the landscape is beautiful! I'm still amazed at how tall the trees are! I love the drive we take to go back to our apartment. It's so scenic! This week we had dinner with the Barkers. They're the family we're living with. They're food was so good we came back the next night for leftovers! brother Barker used to be a pilot. I think you would like him dad. I'm so thankful for the hand of the Lord in my life! He has given me so much to be thankful for! I know that if you look for blessings in your life you will find them! Even if they're small. I love you all!

Sincerely,
Sister Matthews

Coming Home

Remember the post where Chelsea talked about the MTC trying to kill her? She got a concussion during her last week in the MTC that isn't healing and will be returning home tonight to get the rest she needs to recover. Our parents will be taking her to see a neurologist. We are hopeful that she recovers quickly. In the mean time, please keep her in your thoughts as prayers. Thanks for reading her updates! Tiffany Methot

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello everyone! This week has been great! We've been working with a lot of less actives this week and we have been able to see their faith grow little by little. We even saw one family at church yesterday! It was amazing! They loved it. They even invited us over fr Thanksgiving even though we already have plans. We told them we would "stop by" haha! Then we taught a lesson to an investigator about the Book of Mormon. She has been struggling with reading it because she thinks she only needs the Bible. By the end of the lesson she said she was about to tell us that she doesn't want to meet anymore but she said there was a small itch in her brain telling her to keep reading the Book of Mormon! I'm so thankful the Holy Ghost was able to tell her to keep reading otherwise she would've dropped us!  On Tuesday  we had District meeting and we set a goal as a district to get 6 new investigators this week. During the week we hadn't received a single new investig...

Week 5

Hello everyone! This week has been amazing! It started last Monday night. We were able to meet with a less active and convinced him to come to church! He has faith, he just needs to put it into action. This less active lives in a member of the wards home Brother Link because Brother Link rents out his house and once we were done talking to the less active, Brother Link introduced us to a girl named Lily Hope who is 17 and she is really interested in the church! We are trying to set up a time to meet with her but she is currently already planning on coming to church next week! Then  on Tuesday  is when we fasted. This transfer our mission has a goal of bringing 36 investigators to baptism and President Rasmussen thought we should all fast for this goal so the different areas of our mission have had separate days to fast and ours was  on Tuesday ! Fasting truly does bring miracles! Recently we have had a hard time finding new investigators but while we were out tracting...
