Hey Everyone!
So this week has been a real trial. We had a lady bashing on the Book of Mormon. We had 2 of our top investigators drop us, and one of them was new and really promising. It was one thing after another.
But in the midst of all this we found several miracles! One... we received 2 new investigators this week (I know there are more to come). Two.. there was a Spanish immigration conference that we were serving at. (Sister McFarlane knows a little Spanish.) There weren't many people there so we went to go find some more people to come. On the way back we saw a man walking so we stopped to talk to him. He said we were an answer to his prayers!! So, we gave him a Book of Mormon and got his information to pass it on to the missionaries in the area that he lives.
We also received a phone call from a man saying that he had a member friend, and he wanted to be baptized. He said he had a family and after he was baptized he was going to lead them in the right direction!!
But our miracles didn't stop there. We also had 2 investigators at church! They loved it!!! There were so many miracles among the trials this week. I am positive there are more to come. I hope y'all have a good week!
Matthew 11:28-30
I know that my Redeemer lives!! It is my joy to represent Him in all of my doings!

Week 12
We were able to Skype with Kailee yesterday for Mother's Day. She is doing great and loving her mission in Georgia.
She told us the other day her companion ran over a bird. The bird got caught in the grill of the car. Her and her companion were unable to get it out of the car. They drove to church and greeted people as they were coming in. One of the young men came to tell them they had a bird stuck in their car. A few minutes later he came back with the bird out of the car.
Her investigators are really coming along. One of their investigators is trying to quit smoking. To help her with quitting Kailee and her companion also promised to give something up. Kailee told us she is going to stop saying the word 'like'. For those who know Kailee, this is quite the challenge.
She is really growing lots spiritually, and we were able to have her testify to us during our Skype call.
Kailee can also email friends now. Her email is: kailee.chidester@myldsmail.net. She would love to hear from everyone!

Week 11
Hey!
I am doing great! I love being a missionary. I learn so much every single day! Haha so story..... a couple of weeks ago we almost got eaten by a dog! Ever since then we have been a little hesitant around big dogs with big barks. On Saturday we went to stop by a less active family's house. And guess what?! There were two big dogs barking at us. But we really needed to go see this family. So, we said a prayer of safety and slowly walked up the driveway. The dogs were barking like crazy the whole time. When we got close to the door the dogs stopped barking. The dogs were really nice. We found out one of the dogs was just a really big puppy. It jumped on us and wanted to play! haha And it was raining. So, after we smelled like wet dog. Love you!
