We have a wonderful investigator named Sister Marshall that we have been working with for awhile (in fact, the first time missionaries met her was on my birthday:)). We have taught her everything she needs to know, and she has been praying to know when Heavenly Father wants her to be baptized. On Sunday she came to church, and she didn't seem to be in the happiest of moods:( When we asked what was wrong she said she would tell us later- so we went to visit that evening... and a miracle happened (of course:)) She told us that she had run into the Elders while she was walking home from church, and they had told her that they knew she was prepared for baptism! It was a miracle because that day she was going to tell us that she just couldn't be baptized because she wasn't getting an answer to her prayers. But when she heard that from the Elders, the Spirit touched her- and she recognized her answer:) She decided that she is going to be baptized on October 9th, and I couldn't be happier! The Elders told us their side of the story, and they had no idea that what they were telling her would have such a big effect. I know that happens more often than we realize, you are all such powerful tools in the Lord's hands- He answers prayers through us all. If we only listen to the quiet promptings from the Spirit.
Sorry my email is so short! Rest assured that I love you all and there will always be more stories I will tell you:) Missions are the GREATEST!
Love, Sister Jones
