Dearest family,
Sorry- this is a short one.
This
week looks sad in numbers, but after rethinking about it, Sister
C. and I felt really good. It was a miracle when we got in
touch with a lady who said we had answered her prayer in coming. We've
felt for a while that we should stay away after many attempts, but that
day we were prompted to try one more time, and we were greeted with "You
came back!"
We were
also met with a miracle when we felt inspired to visit a man who hadn't been to church in a long time. His father had recently died and even though we knew we wouldn't be visiting
long because of the rule of three, we wanted to try to visit. When we pulled in, we were
surprised to find the elders just coming back from knocking on the door. We decided the door again and this time the brother answered. We spent
the next hour letting him talk about the emptiness he felt at losing his
dad and promising us that he'd be back at church soon. He sent us away
with donuts and come-agains.
At
the beginning of the week, our little town of Cambridge was hit with 17
inches of snow in one day- more than any other city in the area!
Needless to say, we spent a LOT of time shoveling snow for neighbors,
and laughed when we saw snow mobiles sliding down the roads- apparently
the first day of snow is like a holiday- lots of shovels, lots of plows,
and lots of snow mobile parades.
Sister
C. and I are doing really well, but one thing I've noticed us
struggling with is during companionship study, we are hesitant to
practice teaching. Do you have any advice on what exactly we should
practice or ways we could do it effectively?

Her dad, who's not a member, even came with his wife! That baptism was
the result of many family prayers :)
I love you all so much! thank you for your pictures and stories and encouragement :)
Have the faith to fish!
Hurrah for Israel!
Love, Sister Roberts
