Kaibeto, AZ

 

As great as Kaibeto has been this week it made me very happy we actually have some non-members who are interested. We had the opportunity to give a blessing to a member's niece who just got released from the hospital. She was in there for 2 months after getting hit by a drunk driver and she has been recovering well. Well we gave her a blessing and the spirit was very abundantly there. We were all touched. It was devastating she was severely injured and one of her daughters broke her femur, but recovered very quickly. She told us that after helping her husband who is traditional, she is Christian, with a ceremony while on the way back she got hit by a woman who was drinking. She was told by some other people that the accident was the Lord's way of punishing her for helping with the ceremony. We were able to bear our testimonies that God does not punish his children, and to teach her other things about adversity. She expressed only of thanks but also a desire for us to come back and teach her, she said about a week before the accident she was actually going to start meeting with the missionaries, her friend who is a member was going to refer her to us, but then the accident happened. She is very prepared to hear the message of the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I was very able to see the Lord's hand in our week, and I know that the blessings of diligent labor are opening upon our heads.Well we are pretty covered for Thanksgiving this week which is very exciting. Have a Happy Turkey Day!
