We had such a very good and busy week! I hope that ya'll had a wonderful Valentines day and spread the love of Christ to all.
Thursday was our Zone Conference, so we got to hear from our beloved President Hanks. Sister Allred and I sang a rendition of 'Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)' and I think it went fairly well.
Sister Robison and I were able to meet up with a lady we met back before Christmas named Dana. She drove us out to Wren so we could go to a Youth Group meeting at her church with her. They fed us hamburgers and she introduced us to all of her church members. They were all so friendly and sweet. After that they had a worship service. It was different. I'm so glad that I am a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints cuz we hold all of the truth. But, it was really good to see her again and an experience that only strengthened my testimony of the truthfulness of this church.
Yesterday we stayed in Tupelo all day at church and meetings and then tracting until it was dark. It was incredibly cold, but Sister Robison and I stuck it out. We met the sweetest lady ever! Her name's Miss Ivy. She let us in because it was so cold and we got to talking and ended up staying for quite a while getting to know her. She's visited with Elders before but wasn't interested. After talking to her and getting her to open up to us she said we could visit her any time! She keeps a collection of teacups and had recently visited New York. So she let us look at all of her pictures while traveling there and has converted me to the idea of visiting there someday! It's going to happen! Before we left she gave Sister Robison one of her teacups and gave me a travel guide to NYC! Sweetest thing ever!!
And, here's a God thing. It was starting to get darker and it was really cold, and we didn't have anywhere to go to eat dinner. We talked about praying that Heavenly Father would send us a miracle and someone would let us in to eat dinner with them. Not even 10 minutes after just talking about praying for this miracle, Tupelo Sisters call us and say "Hey, we just felt like we needed to call and see how ya'll were doing" When we told them that we were still out tracting they said "What! Are ya'll hungry? Hey, we'll bring ya'll some food and ya'll can eat at the church." MIRACLE!! Not even that! I had been craving for some toast and guess what they brought along with our meal! TOAST! God is so good. He is so mindful of His children and I am so incredibly grateful for it.
I love ya'll so much and hope that you know that your Heavenly Father is mindful of you and your needs. Just keep pressing on! The future is as bright as your faith!
Much love, Sister Michaela Mason
