Hey all!

Hope you had a Wonderful New Year’s Eve and day! I did! We got to unpack! Haha.

Had an awesome week! We got our apartment on Wednesday and got to move in on Friday the 30th. Then we got to work! And eventually here and there we got unpacked, don't think I am fully yet though!

We (Elder Hoffman & I) got a lot done for starting fresh in the area. We’ve been tracting a lot which is always a pleasure. :) We have found a good number of potentials and found some sweet part-member families!

We were also definitely guided by the spirit on where to go, too! We saw some sweet miracles! I’ll share a couple with ya, they were just a matter of being at the right place at the right time. So the first one was, we were planning and we were looking at some names to stop by off the ward roster, and this one name kept coming up, over and over and over. So we wrote it down. Well, that night we ended up getting out of an appointment pretty late but we still felt like we needed to go by. Well we did! And the son of a less active (lives with his mom) opened the door and we introduced ourselves, and he just had this puzzled look on his face, we asked if everything was alright and all he said was, “I just got off the phone with my dad (who is a member) and he told me I should go to church and be baptized.” Well, we talked with him a bit and asked if we could come back when his mom was there and so now we’re seeing them tomorrow night!

Another one happened kind of with the same circumstance! We felt impressed, so we stopped by, and he (a less-active member for about 3-4 years) let us in and told us that his mom had just passed away two days prior and wanted to re-learn about the plan of salvation! So we had like a POWERHOUSE lesson with him and he is doing awesome. We’re going to the 2-part funeral tomorrow and Thursday.

So yeah, I'm loving Livonia! Haha! I hope you all are getting your own opportunities to share your beliefs in your own ways! :)

Well I got a new address for ya’ll!

{get ahold of Taffi if you'd like the new address}

I’d love to hear from ya!

But I gotta run, hope you all have a fantastic week!
