Make it happen, Captain!

Hello Family!!

I have a day of miracles to tell you about! It was on Monday, and everything Sister Perkins said happened! We looked up a less active family we've never been able to meet and on our way out Sister Perkins said, "Wouldn't that be cool if we met them in their driveway?" Right then the bus pulled up and out came one of the daughters. We talked to her for a few minutes and as we were leaving again Sister Perkins said, "Now watch the rest of the family drive up." And they did! So we turned around and got to meet them for a second.

Then we went to a different less active family and we had met a neighbor boy walking his dog last time so Sister Perkins said, "What if we see Roger walking his dog again!" We pulled up, and there was Roger walking his dog right in their driveway! We talked to him and the kids cause they were all friends. Then as we were leaving Sister Perkins said, "Now watch Sister Martin drive up." And sure enough, there she was driving down the street! So we turned around and talked to her too! What?! It was crazy! Sister Perkins has so much faith, 4 for 4!! My eyes were big, jaw dropped the whole day and I kept saying, "Nooo waaay, are you serious?!" Sister Perkins kept saying, "God made it happen, capt'n!!"

We have a less active family who is amazing! They have a testimony, but they just aren't acting on it right now. We had a great lesson with Sister Salinas though, and helped her realize her desires and what little things she needs to do now to get started back to activity. We've started calling her every morning to pray with her and sending her a little scripture to read. So far she loves it and she wants to come back!:)

We started an ASL Class (one of the Elders knows sign language), and we invited people from the Branch and lots of students from the SUNY campus. We had two people come last night, one was a returning member and one was a student from the campus! So far so good! 

I hope you all make it a great week! Love you! 

Love, Sister Johnson

p.s. How is your scripture reading going?:)
