Be thou Humble... and the Lord thy God shall lead thee 

I love the lyrics to this song.

1. 1. Be thou humble in thy weakness, and the Lord thy God shall lead thee,
   Shall lead thee by the hand and give thee answer to thy prayers.
   Be thou humble in thy pleading, and the Lord thy God shall bless thee,
   Shall bless thee with a sweet and calm assurance that he cares.
2. 2. Be thou humble in thy calling, and the Lord thy God shall teach thee
   To serve his children gladly with a pure and gentle love.
   Be thou humble in thy longing, and the Lord thy God shall take thee,
   Shall take thee home at last to ever dwell with him above.

This is our week! Okay so miracles happened but not in the way we planned. So we had appts set, members ready, investigators we counted on....and it did not work out that way. So we're learning to always strive to follow the Spirit and what we need to do.
Let's see. One miracle, So there's this girl named Georgina whho was baptized 2 1/2 years ago, left on a mission a year later, came back on wednesday, and is a miracle to this area! She wants to come out with us all the time and it just so works out she is the perfect fellowshipper for our investigator Evelyn. So we're excited!!!!!!!
Evelyn, we gave a church tour and taught the restoration on Saturday. It was a great lesson with Georgina and she accepted to be baptized if she came to know! Georgina and her exchanged numbers and now she'll be involved. Yay!
Had lesson last night with landry's. Bishop was going to come with us...but couldn't last minute. A bit discouraging because we have such a testimony that members make the lessons! But we did the Book of Mormon drawout to help explain where it came from and such. Jim replied, "Well, that's believable" So that was good. I love them so much! Jim's brother is a mormon in like idaho or somethin. But, since we met the Landry's they have fed us twice and offered their help in anything we need. They're like the adopted parents out here. Love them!!! Can't say it enough.

We bus contacted for the first time!!!!!!! We got to use our spanish name tags. (did i tell you president gave us permission to get spanish tags?) But bus contacting was fun. Pretty much we just parked at the stateion, got on a bus, and rode it for an hour talking to people. Good time.

Well gotta go! Love ya!
