What a week of miracles! Those who’ve been reading these emails may have remembered a few months ago back in October emailing about a mission tour with Elder Bennett. In it our mission was rebuked, but in the process, spiritually strengthened and we’ve come out better for it. I’ve seen so much progress in the mission and in the individual missionaries these last few months since Elder Bennett came, and then the impossible happened. He returned! Members of the seventy are normally very busy and so coming back to a mission just doesn’t happen, but it did!
In
preparation we were asked to study the Sons of Mosiah like we never had
before and boy, did we study them. After coming prepared and ready we
gave an account to Elder Bennett about what had changed. What a special
experience, to see real repentance in the lives of all of the
missionaries. But in his return he also taught us so much more. The Sons
of Mosiah were consecrated missionaries, and not just missionaries,
consecrated people. They gave everything to the Lord because they loved the Lord. That’s the important part and where everything stems from. If we love God, everything else falls into place.
So
we went out and worked! Macedon is doing great and we’ve seen many
miracles (including having the cops called on us again, this time the
cop accepted a Book of Mormon). But if anything I’ve noticed after Elder
Bennett’s Return our work ethic hasn’t changed, but my heart has. I
feel more for those we work with and their situations. I love it here,
and I love these people.
I love you all very much as well and am always praying for you!
Sincerely,
Hermana Abreu

The other day we were carrying in groceries and Sister Hallows leaned
over our van Lucy and looks like a model for our car, so we took a
picture.

district Meeting. Being split Visitors Center Trainer, Sister
Braunberger and I were on exchanges at the Hill Cumorah with Sister
Moberly while Sister Hallows was with Sister Dickey. Very fun times.
