I just got back from hiking
Koko Head.
Koko Head.
It was pretty intense,
we climbed 1200+ steps,
to get to the top!
It felt more intense
than hiking Angels Landing!
We got a complaint from Salt Lake Headquarters about forgotten referrals in our area. So, Elder Cardon and I decided that we would visit all of them. One of the referrals was a couple, going back to 2014. For some reason it got resent to us. We searched the street it said that they were on, we could not find their house number, but we prayed that we could find the house. We kept searching.
We were in the area of an investigator ,so we decided to go and see her since we were in the area. As we talked with her, we asked her if she knew the couple we were searching for, and she actually knew!!! So we did find their house and were able to knock on their door. A little old lady answered, she had no idea why we were there. She had never requested to meet with the missionaries, but she let us sit outside and talk with her.
Her story was, her husband is a "scientist" a really smart man who does not believe in God. He has stage 4 Bone Cancer, and she was trying to take care of him. We got onto the topic of religion and she said she does not know if there is a God... sometimes. She was really nice and we scheduled a dinner appointment with her. It was a miracle that we found her especially in her time of need, from a mystery referral from 2014.
I can't wait to meet with her again, they could use a lot of support, and I believe she and maybe even her husband have been prepared to receive the gospel at this time. I'm glad I got to talk to y'all Sunday.
Mom thank you for all that you have done for me.
I'll have a new story for next week love you all!!!
