Hola Familia! 

Well...I am so glad that Redfish is safe and sound! I am with Mom on this one...God really does love Redfish! WOO! A fire at employee housing is a little too close!!!! 
Sounds like everyone had a fun week! Lots of hiking and game nights! I love it! So glad that you are all enjoying your summer! Redfish summers...mmmmm! 

This week for us was incredible! We really have shifted our mind set since the missionary department has come here and it has been incredible! We are all inviting like crazy and miracles are taking place because of it! It has been so fun! 

Dirk is right on target! He is doing so good! I love him so much! I cannot believe his baptism is this week!! The 26th!! What a miracle!!  Tim is also doing really well! We watched the Restoration video yesterday night with him and the spirit was SO strong! WOO! He bore a simple yet pure testimony of how he is feeling really good about everything, it was so neat and I don't think there was a dry eye in the house! I am so thankful for the spirit that testifies of truth. 

We met a lady named Linda this week...she invited us right in and we began teaching her. We told her about the Book of Mormon and she has already read half of it and she said she knows it is true! When we told her J.S first vision...she said..."Wow.. I cant imagine an experience like that!" It was so neat! We invited her to be baptized and she said she would pray about it. She has been a minister for about 20 years now, but it was a miracle to find her and she is so sweet!  I think it is so wonderful to find the people as her!!! 

Funny story/ miracle- This week we were on our way to the Carmel Sisters baptism and they texted us asking if we could grab a towel. (because the man getting baptized forgot one!) We were almost to the church but we told them we would figure something out. So, I don't know what got into me but... I told Sister Hofheins we were going to knock on a door and get a towel and invite whoever it is to the baptism. We knocked and introduced ourselves, we told our situation and asked for a towel, they gladly gave us one...but said they had to work so they could not go to the baptism. After the baptism, we went and returned the towel and began talking to them. The Mother was so curious as to why we choose her house out of all the houses on the street...she said she wanted to come to church and was interested in learning more! We are excited to see what comes of this one! Haha   MIRACLE! In the most random way! :)  

Church this Sunday was incredible! We had over 7 less actives at church and 3 investigators! It was so fun! I thank my Heavenly Father for allowing me to be a missionary 500 times that day!!  Sometimes explaining what a mission is and does to you is undescribable!

Well...this will be probably one of the best weeks ever! :)  I love you all and cant wait to tell you all about it! I know that Heavenly Father is hastening his work.  He is working hard and I am trying to keep up with Him! I re-read a quote this week that I really like... "Pray as if it depends all on Him, Work as if it depends all on you!" I know that as we do our part He will come in ten fold and do His! I love you all and miss you! 
Have a great week! 
Love 

Sister Clegg the 3rd
