MIRACOLI

NOVEMBER 5th's email




Ogni giorno.. So i am lazy and dont want to write the WHOLE story so just ask me about it when i get home. We were on a train and just so happened to sit next to this girl. She is from Texas but lives here in Italy (long story) but she was on the wrong train. So she got off with us and the next train wasnt for two hours, and she had an appt. she had to be to in one hour in a whole differnt city... So the impression came to my mind to invtite her to our appt with us.. Normally that just wouldnt be a thing you do inviting a stranger to someones home but it came from the Spirit so i did. Turns out this family we were going to didnt have a car at home to drive her in but a scooter... problem with that is she had her suitcase and that is a no go on the scooter route. So the son took her on the scooter and we took the bag so she could come pick it up from us later that night when she got back to Pavia. On the train ride home it came to our minds to write a note in a Book of Mormon and put it in her bag... so we did... Later that night we got her bag back to her so she could head home to BERGAMO, and then we headed home... So that whole night Burt and i just keep looking at eachother just waiting for a text or something from her... Never got one, so we decided 1. she hates us. 2. She just was so ingrossed in the BOM that she hadnt had the time to text us.. or 3. She hadnt unpacked yet... Naturally we were thinking it was option 1 until lunch time the next day.. I walked into the kitchen crying because we had gotten the most miraculous text from her about our note and the BOM..., and how she was so blessed from Heavenly Father to have met these two girls that were 'in the RIGHT place at the RIGHT time..' And the most amazing part is, we had nothing, absolutely NOTHING to do with this.. It was all Heavenly Father. We were simply the instruments He worked through. Another testament to me about how real God is and how aware He is of me as His servant. 
MIRACLE STAMP*
and miracle 2. The family that we randomly found one day while doing ricerca 'by being in the right place at the right time..' who the mom is a member and the sister but they havent found the church here in over to years!! Well the mom is now reactivated! And we just set a bap date with her son for the end of this month. Pavia is probably the hardest city i have served in finding new people wise, but it is turning into one of the most miraculous. I love this gospel and the work we do every day. It is so real and so exciting. It is hard, but so fulfilling. 
For all my americans. HAPPY HALLOWEEN, and THANKSGIVING soon.. Eat as much as you can for me. (:
Love Sorella Woods

...and i just got a call from Dibb.. We got a third comp coming end of the week!!
