Smells like Salvation

The subject line is a quote from one of our investigators this week

Dear friends and family,
We had a great week here in Searcy. We are finding new people to teach and helping our investigators progress and I'm getting to know the Ward and this zone more and more. This week I not only played in sacrament meeting but I also gave a talk. Life is good.  On Wednesday Sister Mathison and I instructed at our zone meeting. The topic we were asked to speak on was "Priming the Pump" which is something Elder Kopischke spoke about when he was here. The term priming the pump comes from a really old church video that Sister Mathison and I wanted to show as part of our instruction. So we searched and searched for this video. And finally found that it was on an old family home evening supplement video that our church library happen to have. We were so excited until we tried to actually play this old VHS tape. We tried two different VHS players but the tape was
not going to work. Then we ejected it and it broke completely. We panicked a bit and called everyone we knew to try and find this video. No luck. Until the very end of the night the very last person we saw happened to have the family home evening video supplement on DVD. Yay!  It was a miracle and our instruction the next day was a success.

I also got to go on a very fun exchange with Sister Armstrong in Jacksonville this week. Sister Armstrong and I served both served in Conway a year ago at the beginning of our missions so it was fun to get to get to be together again. Jacksonville is great area. We got to have dinner on an air force base which I thought was super cool!  The rest of the week was pretty normal. Finding and teaching and helping and serving that what we do as missionaries. This upcoming week is going to be lots of fun. We are exchanging and going to Memphis for a meeting. Road trip!
As always thank y'all for everything and have a wonderful week!
Love
Sister Aase
