Temple Trip!!!

I don't have a lot of time to email today BECAUSE I GET TO GO TO THE

TEMPLE and I'm driving one of the cars of missionaries over the river

so I'll have NO TIME to email. Worth it though. This is the last time

I'll get to go to the temple before it closes for renovations. Sister

Lange and I had a great week! It was bittersweet because we knew she

was going to be transferred but we had a lot of fun to make up for it.

She's going to be trio training in Jonesboro. So stoked for her. 

My new companion will be Sister Feinga! She's from Tonga and had been

serving in Glenwood. We are about to have a great transfer. Sister

Feinga and I had an exchange here in Pinnacle Mountain last week and

we killed it and saw many miracles so I'm confident there are good

things to come. I'll share a couple of cool experiences from this

week. I was on an exchange in the area with another sister and we were

trying to have a lesson with one of our investigators. Well, she

didn't answer her door. So, sister Minster and I kind of lingered in

the area to see if there was anyone else we could talk with. We saw a

cute girl getting out of her car so we ran over to her. She had some

baby stuff in her hands so we asked if she needed any help and if she

had just had a baby. She said yes, that her and her husband had just

had a little baby boy! She also said that her husband is Mormon.. we

were super surprised and asked if we could come over sometime to get

to know them better. She said yes and we gave her our card. As we were

walking away sister mister and I were kicking ourselves in the butt

because we didn't ask her for her phone number. Well, get this. Right

when we got into our car to leave we got a text message. It was from

the girl we met asking us if we wanted to come by and get some water

and use the bathroom before we left. MIRACLE!!! We of course said yes.

We were able to talk with her about her religious background and it

turns out she loves the things our church teaches and is open to

learning more. We are going to make her cookies this week and drop

them by to thank her and schedule a time to teach her about the

gospel. I love when things like that happen. I know the Lord inspired

our minds during our planning to help us be in the right place at the

right time even though our original appointment fell through. Last

experience I'll share, sister lange and I were at McDonald's sending

some emails to our investigators. It was 8:45 and we were going to

head out to get home before 9. Sister lange started to sync her iPad

which would take about 5 minutes. I had a really strong impression,

"it's time to leave". Well, I ignored it and we sat there for a few

more minutes. When we went to leave McDonald's a man came up to us

outside and started to harass us, asking us to take him somewhere in

our car. Another man pulled up in his truck and was getting really

close to us as well. The two men were arguing back and forth and so we

ended up going inside McDonalds. They both continued to harass us for

a while and eventually we called the AP's and asked them to come and

walk us to our car. It ended up being okay, but it was such a clear

example of how important it is to listen to the still small voice. It

really can and will speak to us. It warns us of danger and prompts us

to do what is right. I'm thankful for that experience and that it

didn't turn out any worse. That's all I have for you today. I hope all

of you have a great week and that you'll make it a goal to have at

least one spiritual experience a day. It's something I've been doing

this past week and man, God is good.

Much love, sister guthrie
