This week was pretty rough- Sister E. and I caught a pretty bad cold for a few days. But there is opposites in all things- and we saw several miracles happen anyway. One of our newer investigators, L.L. whose in a wheel chair without a leg and who might be evicted from her home, was brought to a very low, humble spot in her life and was willing to receive a priesthood blessing from one of the amazing men from our ward. It was a beautiful blessing that was full of the spirit. P. B. was approved to be baptized! YAY! Thank you so much by the way for all the prayers! they have been answered! :) That was a miracle. And a third one was when two of our investigators, R. and T. C., came to church! Especially because R.has a bit of a phobia of coming to church. But our President's council was prime! He told us to have the members who were planning to pick them up stop by personally to confirm the ride. And they came!

During an exchange this week I was able to teach someone that Heavenly Father has a body of Flesh and bone. She had never heard that before! She was so grateful to know that she could hug her father again someday. It was amazing to see that idea dawning on her face- I am so thankful to know that I have a loving heavenly father who is there for me in body and spirit :) YAY! the church is true!! Also- I was able to teach an investigator that day named Jenny. She had a really hard time accepting that there was a prophet. But when we left her she understood that the church of Christ needs to be consistent because God is the same yesterday, today and forever. So the church today needs to be the same as it was in the Bible times- and no other church today is exactly the same! I encourage anyone with this same question to watch the CES devotional recently done by Elder Calister. It is so prime!!!

My cold is gone now- so I'm feeling a lot better. I was really blessed to be part of the President's fireside yesterday- I got to sing a duet with Elder B. He is an amazing singer- but we were both so nervous! Luckily the spirit was very strong in that room and it carried us through. I felt the spirit. We sang "Did you think to pray". When Sister Clements ended her talk she had all the missionaries come up and sing " The Army of Helaman"- I got to play the piano lat the last minute and it was so powerful to listen to all those voices singing that song! What an incredible spirit! It was an incredible night that gave me a lot of motivation. It did not feel good to be stuck in the apartment for those two days being sick. I focused on planning and studying most of the time to keep the lazy feeling at bay.Sorry My letter isn't longer! Not much time today. I love you all so much!!! Stay strong- we are the "Army of Helaman"!
Hurrah for Israel!!!
Love,
Sister Roberts
