Dear Family,
It has been awhile since I wrote, so here goes. We received an older sister last week on the 29th of Nov. Her companion did not come because of a mixup at church travel. We also received the younger sister that had a case of kidney stones and she was unable to come last month. Yesterday we received the other senior sister that did not come last week. With all of this coming and going it put extra cooking on Roylene. She is so amazing at serving others. Last saturday we had a baptism of a special lady. She was one of the investigators that came to Roylene's fireside in September. She is already introducing the gospel to four other people. So Roylene's setting apart is already coming true. I was just interuted by a phone call from a Elder Heath. He is a senoir couple missionary serving in Varazdin. The sister missionaries were meeting with a sister they have comitted for baptism on the 17th of December. He and his wife met with them too. After a 50 minutes of lesson he was prompted to give the investigator lady a blessing. He felt in his mind why because he gave her a blessing a week or so ago. But he gave her the blessing. During the blessing he saw the lady in his mind with her scriptures open and she was standing in front of a group of lady's teaching them. He talked about this in her blessing. After the blessing she was crying very heavily. She got her composure and then told the missionaries that the night before she had a dream that she was standing in front of a group of ladies and she was holding a book open. Elder Heath ask her who told him about her dream. She replied God. He then said to her is that proof enought to you that God knows who you are and that you are doing the right thing. We truly live in a day of miricles and God is aware of all of his children and He wants to bless us all. We just need to do what is right so He can. We are living the Book of Mormon in this mission. It is wonderful. I tell Roylene that she must have done something very special in the preexistence for us to deserve this blessing in our lives. Just to meet and know these special missionaries is a very real blessing. A set of sisters followed my teaching from last zone conference to pray with people they meet on the street. One lady said to them that she never felt like that before and wanted to pray again. Another younger lady they saw again the next day on the street and she told them she could not stop thinking about that prayer all night. Anothe said I have never heard a prayer like that before. I just told the missionaries to pray and thank God for meeting them and to point out some good quality about the person that they met. Last night Roylene had invited a American couple from the US Embasy to dinner with the Hansen's and the Mowers. It was a good start to friendship someone else that we hope to teach in the future. She is expecting their second child and they will go to the US for three months to have the baby. Well I have to go. We are going to Celje and Maribor today to meet with missionaries. The gospel is true and life is good. Happy Birthday to Grace even though I am a day late. Love Dad
