I'm Staying in Grand Blanc?!

Just kidding, I'm not staying in Grand Blanc.
I've been here for 6 months and now it's my time to go.
Tomorrow I will be headed to what will probably be my last area.
Of course I'm sad, but I'm ready for new adventures.
I will go where ever the Lord needs me, when He needs me to, without a fight.
I know that God has a plan for everything.
He is so aware of everyone and their needs.
While here in Grand Blanc I have learned a lot.
I have learned how to be me and that's something that I lost for a little while.
For a long time out here in Grand Blanc, I felt depressed and lost.
It was strange, but I overcame it with the help of the Lord and for that I am eternally grateful.
I have been able to truly see the Atonement work in my life and the lives of others.
It has been truly amazing.
I've worked with people who have addictions they never thought they would overcome.
I've worked with people who thought there was no hope, but soon found it through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
This church is true and I know that by seeing it change people's lives for the better.
Here's a cool miracle.
We had another busy week and didn't have much time for finding.
Our district leader asked us last night how many hours of finding we did this week.
I said, 5 minutes.
It's true!
We only did 5 minutes.
It sounds pitiful, but in that 5 minutes, God blessed us with a new investigator who has been amazingly prepared to hear the gospel.
It's one of our neighbors.
The funny thing is that the night before we found him, we were talking to the zone leaders.
they had found 2 sweet investigators.
Our conversation went like this:

Me: Man, we haven't found any.
ZL: Well, have you gone tracting?
Me:......no....
ZL: *laughing* Well you have to go tracting to find new investigators!

OBVIOUSLY, I know that, and when we went finding, we found someone who is ready.

I hope you all have a great week!
I LOVE YOU ALL!

Love,
Sister Heywood
