11.months 9.days

Well as her mother I have to say I know. . . I am behind! But I will share a few most amazing snipits from her last couple of letters. Just so you know Sis. Caitlin Fran is doing SO well! She is in tri-cities right now and she is a trainer, and has been opening a new area the past several weeks. She is seeing miracles every day, well let me share it in her own words!
Oh last tuesday I felt as though we experienced another miracle! There is a
PMF that I believe I heard the elders recently stopped by and they said
don't come back. But I go back anyway. We got in and the husband who isn't a
member was loving everything we said. It was like a light bulb kept turning
on. I just kept teaching and testifying of the BofM and we committed him to
start reading it again and he said he would! AAH!! It was so great. I think
he really enjoyed Sisters.
I think this may be a long e mail about all the miracles of this week.


We showed up to dinner the other night and I had this feeling that a friend
they had was a non member. They didn't tell us they were going to have one.
I like when they tell us. But the spirit was really working on me to ask him
if he was? I was stressing out he grew up with this LDS family I was certain
he has probably had the lessons a million times, maybe he was LA and I
didn't want to offend him. But the spirit was very persistent. I finally
just blurted out...Are you a member? he said no. I said do you want to be? I
mean we could make that happen. He just laughed the family went silent and
we started talking about taking the missionary lessons and he completely
agreed to it! Then there was a Christmas Concert that we were heading to so
we invited him and he came! It was so neat! The next day at church the dad
of where we had dinner told our WML that Marvin is his name has had the
lesson many times but it just has gone no where, but there was the biggest
difference last night and the whole family was so impressed. It made us feel
great! So we are so excited for Marvin!!

This Christmas Season is so full of Miracles!! I have always heard rm's talk
about how much they loved the holidays on their mission and I was just so
nervous and worried, but the Lord always provides and never ceases to bless
his children! I am thrilled to be serving the Lord during the Christmas
Season! It has really allowed me to reflect on the wonderful things the
Savior has given to each of us! Without Him we could not return home. I
would not survive lets be honest! I love sharing this JOY with all those
around me! It has been so fun to talk to those in the streets about Christ.
Hearts are open!
I LOVE you all and pray you also can remember the reason for the season!!
Have a great week!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
