We Were Snowed In!


Hello Everyone! I hope you have all stayed warm, because over here in Pennsylvania, we were snowed in! There was so much snow! We had our District Meeting on Tuesday, the day of the snow storm, and the roads were so bad that we ended up staying with two other sets of missionaries in the Gettysburg Elder’s apartment! We shoveled a crazy amount of snow around the blocks, near their apartment and the Downtown Square. It was all worth it though, because the six of us were singing hymns, as we shoveled.  There was a lot of gratitude from people, as well as them taking videos of us. That was a really fun night!
With us being down for two days in another area, it was tricky to think of what we could do for our investigators, as well as find people to teach, but the Lord magnified our efforts! We have three members that we are working with in bringing them back to church.  One of them that we found, wasn't even on our record! We were told from a lady, to try them by door.  We set up a return appointment for last night and when we got there, it turns out the mom of this family is a member, who didn't know the church was here in Chambersburg! A member in our ward also talked with a lady at Wal-Mart, who ended up coming church yesterday.  We will be teaching them this Wednesday!
It's been a real blessing and tender mercy to see so many miracles this month. This is truly the Lord's work and He guides His servants to those whom He has prepared. I'm grateful for all of the love and support! Have a great week! 

Stuck in Gettysburg for two days!

Look at how much snow was on the Rav!

We tried Hogmaw this week from the Rock family. It is meat, potatoes and other things cooked inside the stomach of a pig. A Pennsylvania Dutch original! It was super good! 



A car was trapped between 3 Semi's.  It was pretty funny!
