Jan. 27, 2015 - Miracles are REAL!


Aloha family!!
This week has been so awesome. Wait, but first things first.... Shout out to Mama Sabey... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To the best, most beautiful, lovely, and wonderful mom in the world!!!!!!!!! 

This week has been full of miracles. The biggest one being... We found a new investigator in Laie!!!!! :):):) So once upon a time, we were eating dinner at the Bishop's house. One of his daughters just got married after I left this area last year, so I had never met her new husband. But serendipitously, he's  a non-member from Samoa who is now living there with her family! His name is Fernando. I think I had seen him in passing, but I didn't know he wasn't a member. So after our dinner we shared a message with the whole family, and invited him to learn more, and he said yes! It seemed like no one had ever asked him before, because he said yes after like .7 seconds. So that was exciting! We're meeting with him this week so I'll let you know how that goes next week. :)

Then I had exchanges with Sister Willardson. It was crazy having so much extra time in our area, usually we only get 30 min to an hour in our proselyting area each day, because we do language study and 12 weeks. So we got two extra hours to be in the area! We went to the very edge of our area, which is also the very edge of Laie, and went tracting. Usually tracting here doesn't work because you just run into the ward members, but this time we found some non-members! It felt good to knock on doors again. :) And I think one lady we met has serious potential to become new investigator! So we shall see!

Well I feel like I mostly tell you miracles that happen in our area.... but there are actually tons of miracles at the Visitors' Center every day. I love being a VC missionary. There is a special spirit on temple grounds that you can't find anywhere else. I love the temple, and I know that it is key to binding families together eternally. I know that we can receive personal revelation there, more clearly and powerfully than anywhere else. 


Well, I love you all sooo much! Thank you for being awesome!  
With lots of love<3<3<3, 
Sister Sabey

PS. I bolded important things because I realized this is really long and you probably don't want/have time to read all of it.  :)
