Week 62 - Sickbed Miracles

Hello! This week was busy and full of miracles and we only went out 3 of the 7 days. Crazy. The sickness that I've had going on was still going strong so we finally decided to crack down and go back to the doctors. She prescribed tougher meds and rest so that is exactly what we had to do. It's a bummer being sick out here, but the Lords work continues on, even if we get a little sick. 

We had the opportunity to help out at a baptism on Saturday for a recently returning less active family who is preparing to go to the temple! We have been working with them since February and this was the first baptism of their family that was not done by missionaries. We love them so much! Its incredible to see a family progress toward eternal marriage. I know the family is ordained of God and that it is the only way we can be truly happy and receive all the glory that our Heavenly Father has in store for us. 

We had the biggest miracle on Sunday!!! This girl named Bailey has been coming to church for about a year now with her boyfriend who just left on a mission. Her family is very against her joining the church, but shes known it is what is right for a long time. On Sunday she came up to us and told us she was ready and wants to be baptized here with all the support from the ward before she goes off to college. She asked us if we could help her with that and after we wiped the dumbfound look off our faces we told her we could! We are so excited for her and the decision she is about to make. We know it'll bring innumerable blessings into her life. 

I love being here and I love getting to serve my Savior. I know that He lives and that he is always there. I love you all and I hope you have the best week!

Love, 

Sister Madeline Whetten
