Hey!
Sister Wagher still thinks she is going to die in Nebraska because she is going to freeze to death. It's really pretty hilarious. I think that she is just getting used to being cold all the time not as much getting used to the cold.
We had a miracle happen with a less-active. A guy we have been working with ever since I have been here came to Church for the first time in I don't know how long. He had a lot of issues with the Church and actually asked for his records removed, then got baptized again a few years ago but he could never get over some questions about the Church (even though it was explained so so many times to him). Conference really helped and he realized he needed to doubt his fears before he doubted his faith. It also really helped that a lot of members of the ward have been going over without us and helping him a lot. It was amazing. He participated in classes and even called us with some questions after Church and just is progressing and wanting to know more and wants to go to the temple. Thankfully, our members have really stepped up to help with the less-actives we are working with. It has been amazing to see the progress of people, especially when members get involved. They have gotten really involved with the other family I talked about last week too. I never realized before my mission how many members are less-active and how it is our responsibility as members to reach out and to help them, even if at that time it might only be to befriend them. I can't imagine not working with members. Our mission president has really been talking a lot about working with members and how it is the way the Lord wants us to do the work.
