Week 14 in Brooksville

 Broken iPad....
A member named Joseph visiting from Malaysha. We met his daughter who is a non-member a couple months ago and she said he would be coming. We met with him and are planning on teaching his daughters family hopefully this week. He didn't know there was a church here so he was very excited! He especially loved the Broadcast!

Things have been great despite all the extra stuff that's been going on. One example would be when we were sitting in the car after a meal at a members home. We weren't sure what to do so we said a prayer, and felt like we should make some calls. After a couple minutes we had Elder Leja, one of the assistants call us to talk about Zone Conference. While we were talking on the phone a man came with a flashlight up to our car. We rolled down the window and they were surprised to see us. The man said "Honey its okay! It's just the Elders!". They are non members who thought we were just random creepers. They were excited to see us because they met with missionaries up in Chicago. They invited us over to dinner and gave us all their information. We had that dinner and lesson with them later that week. It was especially awesome because we were able to take a Priest with us. They accepted a Book of Mormon and we will be meeting again soon! Sometimes the Lord will literally place you in the path of those hes prepared. I've only had a couple times where people have walked up to the car and never to that extent. It was a huge blessing and miracle! Also, we finally got back in contact with the Brown family. They're struggling but the Lords hand is most definitely in their life. We are hoping they are ready now. There's several others who are so close to making that final step! The ward is a huge help and they're doing their own missionary work too which is a huge blessing! Things are going very well in Brooksville!
Also, we had a regional broadcast for the southeastern united states at church yesterday. It was awesome because there were several general authorities and Elder Bednar who spake! There wasn't anything special announced but the spirit was most definitely there. It was a perfect environment for non-members. We also had our Zone Conference this week which was a blast! Sadly I did not get the Zone picture but I think they posted some photos  online. So agian, lots of good things are happening!
I hope you have a fantastic day! Love you!!!
