Vroom vroom

This week was crazy.  We had a great day on Tuesday when we got 6 lessons in one day!  We also did our laundry that day (our plans for Monday ended up not working out since we're having to use members homes to do our laundry), created some awesome pictures to lay out the plan of salvation, and had a fun time with a couple member families in the ward who we had dinner with and taught a lesson to.  We planted a lot of seeds this week, found another investigator, helped our 3 investigators who have their baptism date for August 10th (less than 2 weeks!) continue to progress, and got a shock to our system when we found out our Florence elders got in a car accident that they walked away from.  The accident happened Wednesday night when the Elders were on their way back from visiting one of their investigators a good 45 minutes away from where we were.  Yes, we let them borrow the car with Presidents permission.  It was after the time Sister Meek and I expected them to be back and they hadn't responded to our text message.  I told sister Meek, "Either they haven't left yet, or they're in a car accident.....I'm going to stick with they haven't left yet."  About 10 minutes later a brother from the ward came out and told us they had been in an accident.  Sister Meek and I both cried.  I cried a lot.  Probably because I had been needing to cry for a while with some other frustrations and disappointments, but also because I couldn't believe that had happened and I wanted them to be ok.  We were so blessed that night.  The roads had been wet from rain and going around a curve a little too fast, the car rolled.  The Elders came out of it with only a few scratches, sore muscles, and rolled ankle.  We had wonderful members at the church that night because it was mutual and one of them took Sister Meek and I home.  The office had a car ready for us that night to replace the one in the accident.  We all learned some lessons that night, and I learned about counsel from the Lord, obedience, love, kindness, and mercy.  I was a little jittery driving the car the next day, but was so thankful for how everything turned out.  So, as a kind of funny note,, my music player was in the car and went flying during the accident along with pamphlets, cd's, sun glasses, a gps, a map, and a few other items.  At the scene the next day they found pass along cards, the sunglasses, and my music player :)  So I will get that music player on Wednesday from the office during district meeting.  I hope it still works, but we'll see :)

So our week was quite eventful and amazing.  So many other blessings happened this week, but I don't have time to explain them all.  Just know that I have a testimony that God is watching over us and loves us.  This is His work, and He guides it.  I know that planting seeds is just as important as harvesting.  I love the gospel and I love Jesus Christ.
