Happy Thanksgiving!

Sveiki!

I hope everyone had a great week!

This week flew by! I think I'm starting to say that every week haha, but it was such a good week!

On Monday night we went knocking and one lady told us to leave or she'd call the police but we decided she just meant leave her door so we did and continued to knock, but she then came out and started to tell us to leave in Russian, so we decided to leave haha. It was just a funny story and we were sad we didn't get to finish the knocking the whole building. 

We always meet some interesting people while knocking but this week we met the nicest people! One lady was not interested but just loved to talk haha. She was so cute and even gave us suggestions of those who lived in the building who would be interested in our message, nicest lady!

Wednesday was zone conference and basically Thanksgiving (my favorite holiday!). Zone conference was amazing though. I'm pretty sure it was just based around my needs haha, but it really was so fun and answered all my questions and was just a great reminder that Gods knows! That's my new phrase "Dievs zin" because really He does and He really does answer all our questions. That night we also went to one of our member's homes and it was so fun. They took our lesson to a whole new level and want to throw a Thanksgiving dinner for this side of the river and get all our less actives there!! Best idea ever!!! And that's why missionary work is most effective with members!

We also got to do some dropbys with the YSA this week. We went to one recent converts home who has been impossible to get a hold of. It's really hard to get into her apartment building because there's no code but a key, but we went anyways and we weren't successful haha but as we were walking away we saw someone go in the door so we went and tried again and it was unlocked and we saw her! It was such a miracle!! 

One of the biggest things I have learned and am reminded of everyday is that God often works in small miracles and it has been amazing to see those small miracles every single day. I am so grateful for them because even if there is a super hard day you can look back and always see at least three good things that happened and those things are from God! Each day I have written at least three things of where I have seen God's hand. Some days it's harder, but I promise they are there because I have always been able to find them. And to me those small things are miracles! Okay sorry for my little rant, I am just so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father.

Thank you for everything and have the best week!

Love,
