Hello Again

Hello again!
What an interesting week!
We had a record high for less actives at church this week. On average there have only been 4-5 attending for the last few months.However there were 12 yesterday!
We were able to contact 2 referrals this last week! One of them, Sister Marly, because one of our new investigators. She is the Aunt of an active member, mid 40's and she is great! She is very knowledgeable about the church and once we finally found her house she welcomed us in immediately! We are really excited for her not only because she has a desire but she has a support system! When we were trying to find her house we got a trike (tricycle driver). We thought he knew where the street was... he was peddling and peddling and we kept going further and further... turns out he didn't know where the street was and we ended up at the very end of the subdivision... the street... the very first one! Poor guy! He was sweating so bad! I paid him extra just because I felt bad!
One of our other investigators came from 2 of our less actives who have started to come back to church! He is their brother and when we asked what his favorite scriptural story was he said "Joseph Smith". We were shocked and he already knew about Josephs experience and prophets and at the end of the lesson he asked if he could have the copy of the book of Mormon that we had been using! We very willingly gave it to him! We just need to get him to church and to be really converted and he will be good. I can see him being a great leader!
The work here is progressing and we are starting to see miracle here in the Malanday ward! Now is the perfect time to be a missionary!! not just for me but for all of you! :)
I love you all! have a great week and be safe!!
-XOXO-
Sister Hawkins
