ALOHA!
So many miracles this week!
So much to tell!
- About
4 months ago, Sister Jolley and I ran into this guy named Mika at
a car wash. He told us that he used to take lessons and that he really
wanted to start taking them again, but he was in Waianae ward. We weren't
in Waianae ward at the time, so we referred him to the missionaries who
were in the ward. Then, when we were at one of our LA member's house, we
saw him walk out from behind the house (there are houses behind the
member's house) and he was shocked to see us! We kept trying to set appointments with him, but they
all fell through. Then, we finally were able to meet with him last week!
He told us that he knows that the church is true and that he wants to be
baptized. He even said that he wants to quit his job, so that he doesn't
work Sundays. So dedicated.😂 He is set to be baptized on the 7th of
June.

and Shanaia's mom came to General
Conference with them!!!! It was
really awesome. She sat through the whole thing, and Sister Alldredge made
this bingo game for the girls, but the mom did it the whole time. It was
really cute. We have really high hopes for their
family. They have a long way to go, but I think that they will make
it.

Conference was so great. I really loved Elder Holland's at the end. I felt
like I could do anything after his talk. I am so grateful for everyone who
spoke. It was exactly what I needed.
I have been thinking a lot
about the Holy Ghost lately. It is amazing that Heavenly Father has given us
someone to guide us to all of the right answers in the test of life. He won't
give us the answers, necessarily, but he will guide us to them, if we are
willing to do our part. We always have our agency to act according to the
answers that we discover. This time as a missionary is becoming more and more
precious to me as i see how much closer I am to the Holy Ghost than I ever have
before. I feel that I am being trained to more easily recognize the Holy Ghost
in my life, so that when I get home and no longer am serving a full-time
mission, I still have the Holy Ghost constantly guiding me in my life. What a
blessing it is to have such a precious gift.
Anywho.. I love you
all! I hope you have a great week!!!
Love, Sister Barber
