hi
 i sent the letter twice so i hope that you got it!! i am sad that i didn't get a letter this week! i hope everything is ok! :( i will try not to worry! i sent the camera and another package with letters i have received and also a letter for you guys and also my sd card that is full of pictures! so let me know if you got them ok! you have to sign for the camera! this week has been good and we have finally been able to go out and work because sis harun is feeling so much better! i am so happy about that! This week we had zone conference in a place called crawley and it was amazing as always. i always love getting together with other missionaries and getting spiritually fed by pres. millar and whoever has been asked to speak to us. i also got the pedometer so thank you very much! i have only used it once cause i keep forgetting but thanks for sending that. Also how much is the name plates that you put on your scriptures?
This week we had a few appointments fall thru and one of our back ups was to go and stop by a less active. We started to go head to their house and I kept having this feeling that we needed to be somewhere else. I wasn't sure where but my plan was to look at the map and figure things out on the bus but we boarded the bus and the thought kind of slipped thru my mind. Then we got off the bus and started walking to their house and I had that feeling again and so we stopped and fiddled around with the map and was trying to figure out where the Lord needed us at that time. The whole time I had a prayer in my heart to help us to know. So we found a lady we were going to stop by and felt good about it. As we were walking there we ran into a previous investigator named Marta that we had lost contact with becuase she moved and everytime we called she was unable to talk. The great thing about it was she saw us and stopped us and wanted to talk to us. So e talked to her and found out that she still wants to meet with us and was so sorry she could never talk. The problem was that her phone costs her a fortune to use and so she can't talk on it. So I know that if we would have ignored that feeling from the spirit and just went ahead and gone to the less actives house that we would have missed Marta and we might not have been able to ever see her. I am so grateful for the promptings that we receive from the holy ghost and the wonderful feeling you feel when you act on those promptings. The gospel is a wonderful thing.
Sorry this letter is short but we are going to Orpington for pday! love you all and i really hope everything is ok!!!
love syd
