So this week has been a little hectic with the transfer and everything, but we all need a little chaos in all of our lives right? So last tuesday we went around and said all of my goodbyes to all of the people that I was working with. Mainly a Recent Convert and one of the guys that was getting baptized on Saturday! And then Wednesday was Transfer day. We had the transfer devotional and holy crud was that good! All of the missionaries departing give there closing testimonies and its probably the saddest/ most spiritual thing ever! So good! Missions change people. Something that I recently learned an insight to why the first miracle Jesus performed in his messianic ministry was changing water to wine. I mean he could have done ANYTHING and he chose to turn water into wine. President Bell told us that he did that to show that he can change the nature of anything and that's what happens on a mission our nature changes and will change the rest of our lives if we let it.
After the transfer devotional we went to Derby (about 25 min away from Wichita) and started working. The work here is slow and there isn't a lot happening at the moment but we are working hard and this area is going to pick up in no time. We had this really cool miracle that happened on Sunday night. We were walking around trying to find someone that other missionaries had ran into a while ago and his name was Lee. He wasn't home so we walked down the street trying to talk to everyone. We saw this guy that was doing some yard work and asked if we can help. Like every other time we ask to help he told us no. We then proceeded to start up a conversation with him. We had a super spiritual conversation and he ended up praying right on the spot and the spirit was super strong! At the end we were getting his information and guess what his name was? Lee! I don't know if it was the same guy but it just goes to show that the Lord provides. We planned to see a Lee and even though it probably wasn't the same guy, we still found who God wanted us to find. MISSIONARY WORK IS THE COOLEST THING EVER!
