Hola,
This week was great! Transfers were on Thursday, so for
our last district meeting (ended up being more like a zone meeting since we
were all there), we had Al Fox Caraway as a guest speaker. You might know her
as the Tattooed Mormon (but she says she hates that name).
She lives in Coolidge, which is part of our area. She
told her conversion story and told us her motto of "set goals, say
prayers, work hard," which also applies perfectly to missionary work. She
shared Alma 56:46 which says "Father, behold our God is with us, and he
will not suffer that we should fall; then let us go forth." She said that
this scripture helped her through all of her hard times. I don't know how much
you know about her. She joined the church when she was 20 (6 years ago) and the
church has used her story to show that it doesn't matter who you were, it any
matters who you can become with Heavenly Father's help. If you google her, or
look at her Facebook (on which there is a picture of us), or blog, you can
learn more about her. She was super awesome and fun and was such an amazing
speaker.
