Small Girl In A Big City: Road Trippin'!

We got to go to the Hartford, Connecticut Temple open house this week! We went with an investigator and a member of our Ward drove us. It takes about 2 hours or so to get there, so that was fun:) It was so beautiful and it filled me with happiness to see another house of the Lord about to be dedicated:)

My favorite experience from yesterday was when we got to talk to an older couple after coming out of the temple, they are not members of the church and they have seen the temple being built for the past few years and they wanted to know what it was. It almost brought tears to my eyes to see tears coming to their eyes as they told us about the peace they felt in the temple. I am so grateful for the Spirit that is ever-present in the temple, anyone is able to feel it!

Miracle of the week：

We had planned to meet with an investigator at gas station and we were running late. When we got there, our investigator wasn't there:( So we started to leave and I was already in the car when Sister Lin started talking to a man I didn't recognize. I put the car in park and rolled down the window and found out he was a less active. We ended up talking with him for a while and even helped us get ready for the car inspection. Right as we were leaving, we invited him to come to church. And he said he can make it if he can get a ride. So we called up a member and got him a ride and he actually came! With his less active fiancée! It was good to see the Lord's hand at work again. I know that we may not always know why we are supposed to be somewhere, or why we are supposed to be there. But I know that He does! All of us are under His watchful care, He will never lose track of any of us. And I am grateful to be a part in bringing His children back on the path towards it.

I love you all and hope you have been able to recognize all the miracles in your lives! Thanks for your support, and I hope you have another miraculous week!

Love,

Sister Jones
