The Best Doctor :')

 

Hola!! :))

This week I got to be with Sister Smith for a day and we got to pick up Sister Dunning from the mission office so we could all be together for one last hoorah!!!! Those sisters mean the world to me. They welcomed me into the Canada Toronto Mission with open arms. I'll miss Sister Dunning now that she's home. 

 It was probably one of our busiest weeks here in Ontario. We have been receiving soo many Bible study referrals! We are SO thankful. We talked over the phone with such a faithful lady for one of our Bible studies. She battles with cancer but says, "I am still here!" After explaining her story she told us she had the best doctor. Not the doctors that were working on her, but the doctor up in Heaven. She told us that God is the best doctor. She radiates this truth and we could all feel the Spirit, even over the phone call. 

We also got a member referral this week. His name is Nasir and he is incredible. We had a lesson over the phone with him this week and he also joined our church service over zoom on Sunday. (It was the first time we have had a friend at church in a while!) I say this man is incredible because of his trust in God. He has a strong testimony that we are here on earth to grow and progress and that everything happens for a reason. Nasir is blind and so we are trying to get him a Book of Mormon in braille. The mission office said they have one. How perfect is that? But despite his limitations, his faith is firm. Nasir knows where true joy is found. He knows where to find peace. He is humble and submissive to what the Lord wants him to do. He has opened my eyes! 

I have to say.. a mission is more of a blessing than a sacrifice. Talking with such faithful people who completely trust in God is when I'm happiest. Please let me know if I can do anything for you this week. You all are in my thoughts and prayers often!!!! 

!!LOVE YOU!!!
