Dear Family!

This past week flew by as usual!   We qualified for miracles as we worked hard and focused on the task at hand.  Our area is progressing a lot, we had 8 people at church and will be baptizing a lot of them this month.  I'll also be transferring tomorrow! I'll miss the ward and area a lot!  

We saw a huge miracle yesterday on pros-monday.  We went out with faith that we would find a family of 4 who was elect and ready.  While knocking we found 2 elect individuals who we taught, but we still hadn't found that family. We continued knocking and on the last door we knocked we found a family of 4!!! we had specifically prayed to find a family who hadn't been going to church and they were looking for a home church to attend.  While talking with them, we found they haven't been going to church in a long time and would love to find a church that was family oriented!  It was such an amazing miracle!!

President told me where I was going next transfer with one week left!! Took  a lot to make sure I stayed focused.  I'll tell you all next week where I get transferred too:)

I felt the Spirit speak to me a lot during studies last week.  I had been praying and studying a lot to have more faith and trust in God and in His decisions.  While in Jacob 5 I came across this passage 

"71 And the Lord of the vineyard said unto them: Go to,and labor in the vineyard, with your might... and if ye labor with your might with me ye shall have joy in the fruit which I shall lay up unto myself against the time which will soon come.

 72 And it came to pass that the servants did go and labor with their mights; and the Lord of the vineyard labored also with them; and they did obey the commandments of the Lord of the vineyard in all things."

I realized that I need to listen to God and gladly work wherever He needs me. 

I love you all a lot!!

Love,

Elder Spencer Bailey
