November 17, 2014

Hey y'all! 
It sounds like everyone is doing well! Stay safe in the snow!! 
Well, this week was so great! We started off the week by going on exchanges with the STL's! Sister McFarland stayed with me in Amarillo and Canyon and we had a BUSY day!! Miracles always happen on exchanges! The weather dropped off quickly and we had lesson after lesson in the 17 degree weather! (We can't go inside unless there is another woman) But it was great! 
Mom- Thanks so much for FedEx-ing that music to Sister Affleck! It is perfect! I'm excited to listen to her sing at zone conference! She is so dang talented! It's not even funny! We have been working so hard here in our area! We work so well together and will definitely be life- long friends... did I mention that we have the same birthday? haha.  This week we taught "T" a few times. We felt so prompted to teach her the Word of Wisdom and it went so well- then we took her on a tour of the church and she felt the spirit so strongly! We ended our tour in the chapel where we talk about the importance of the sacrament and then sit in silence. She said she felt a little bit hesitant until she sat down and prayed to ask God if this is really his true church and she said the feeling that she received was so strong and could not deny that Heavenly Father answered her prayer! She will be baptized on the 6th of December! That's right- all of my sweet family will be in white in the temple for Brittnie's wedding and "T" will be in white that day too! We are so excited! She came to church and loved it! They announced in Sacrament meeting that the weather was getting pretty bad and that we all needed to go home! SNOW DAY IN WEST TEXAS! Woot Woot! We tracted through 4 inches of snow yesterday! It was... cold :) 
I love this work so much! Being a missionary is the best! I know that this is not my work, but is completely the Lord's work and he will hasten his work in his own due time! We are just the instruments in his hands! I love you all! Stay warm and don't forget to thank our Father in Heaven for all he has given us! 
Love, 
Sister Evans 
P.S. Happy 25th Anniversary Mom and Dad! (Tomorrow! Did I do the math right!? 25 yrs... correct!? LOVE YOU BOTH more than you will ever know!!) 
 4 inches of snow in Texas? ok...
This is my planner from exchanges! Check out that busy day! This has been our lives for the past few weeks! We are going crazy :)
