April 23, 2018 - South SLC

What an incredibly awesome week this has been first week of the new transfer, Elder Mulcahy and I are still working hard and finding lots of people to teach. We have a group of some family members, 17 total, that are all interesting and looking to baptism. So we are very excited with how things are going in the area.

Last night we were in North Salt Lake, trying some apartment complexes in the Rose Park area. We ran into some other sister missionaries, and asked if they knew anyone from Burma. The pointed us down the road, and off we went. After making some great contacts, we went back to our car, which was parked at their apartment complex. We saw these two people go by on bikes, then the sisters came running, and told us their bikes were just stolen. So we got in the car fast and chased them down. We lost them for a while, but then Elder Mulcahy felt that we should check behind a sketchy motel. We pulled in, and sure enough found the bikes. They had already been sold, so we approached the people, and told them they had stolen bikes, and we negotiated a deal to obtain the bikes. We then walked the bikes almost a mile back to where the sisters were waiting, they were overjoyed. Then we walked back to the car, and called it a day. It was great that the Lord could guide us to serve His children, even in the most unexpected and bizarre ways. That is probably the highlight of this last week. 

I also had some great opportunities to teach people about how much God loves them, and how He provided a way that they can be with their families forever. This specific couple was so happy because that is what they want! 

I love my Savior Jesus Christ so much! I am grateful to serve the Lord; I look forward to it every morning!

I love you all!
