Hey Fam. This week was quite the week! Being in the mission for almost 6 months now one thinning I've come to know for certain is that OUR HEAVENLY FATHER ABSOLUTELY LOVES US. I'd like to share an amazing experience from this week that just strengthened my testimony of his love even more. This story begins after district meeting on Tuesday. We were running late to a lunch appointment with one of our members. Once we got there we ate til our stomachs were a little more than full and there was still so much food on the table SO...Our member packed up the food for us to take home. As we hopped in the car a lady named Carmen popped into our head..so we followed the prompting and drove to her house. When she saw us she began to weep! My Companion and I looked at each other a little confused. She looked up and told us that she had just been praying for angels to help her. She said she was very hungry and only had a dollar in her pocket. LUCKY US, we had the food in our car from our previous appointment and gave it to her. Coincidence..I THINK NOT.After sharing a spiritual message with her we headed to our appointment with an investigator. As we showed up, they changed their time to be at later in the night. We looked over out of our window car and saw an old investigators home so we decided to pop in and say hi. When we knocked on the door she embraced us in a huge hug and said we had arrived at the perfect time..she was about to leave to the airport because she had just found out her brother who had been fighting cancer was super sick in the hospital. She had been trying to pray but she couldn't focus, so...we prayed with her. She called us her little angels. I was blown away! Heavenly Father was really watching out for his children and I am so grateful I get to be used as an instrument in his work. What a blessing it is. The joys of being a missionary!!! The story continues on with so many more miracles and being at the place we needed to in the exact moment we needed to be there. It showed me how much God loves us. How much he wants us to be happy!! HE LOVES YOU!! My heart is so full.Yesterday we also had a baptism for Milou! It was so perfect! His whole family was there and they loved it!! It was the cutest thing..as we were all gathered around the font his little girl was up front pressing her face against the window. After he came up from the water she yelled "YOU DID SO GOOD DADDY!!" It was the cutest thing of my life!! His son turned to his mom and said "MOM I WANT TO GET BAPTIZED TOMORROW!! " so many things make my heart melt in the mission. After he received the Holy Ghost his wife and him ran up to each other and gave a sweet little kiss. (Ew, cooties! I know...) no but it was the most perfect day!! His wife and his son are now preparing for baptism. AHHH. I LOVE THE PEOPLE HERE IN NEW YORK. I LOVE OUR HEAVENLY FATHER AND JESUS CHRIST. HES CALLING YOUR NAME, HES WAITING FOR YOU WITH ARMS OPEN WIDE! My heart is in his hands. Missionary life is THE LIFE. He is in charge of my life and will be forever.️
I LOVE YOU ALL.XOXO.Hermana Rogers
