Ask and Ye Shall Find

As I write this letter there is intense thunder and heavy rain in the
background. It is absolutely incredible and quite exhilarating to
listen to. I love the weather out here!

Not only do I love the weather but the missionary work is amazing!
We had a great experience with a referral from mormon.org. We received the referral about a month ago and went to contact her giving her The Bible she requested as well as the book of Mormon, when she said she was looking to add to the knowledge of God she already has. When we tried to set a return appointment she informed us that she could not meet for the next month because she was teaching a class on the Cherokee language. This past week was a month from that event so we went to her home for a follow-up visit. It was an incredible discussion and she asked question after question, leading us to teach her both the restoration and the plan of salvation in a brief overview. We are excited to continue teaching her and hope that she is as prepared as we think :) we had another investigator we taught a couple times this week who hasn't asked any questions. There was a large difference in the two. One learned a lot while the other didn't.
 I began to test the question tactic out in my studies. As I picked a
topic to study based on the people we were teaching, I also asked a question. It enhanced my study and helped me to learn a lot more
efficiently. Ask and ye shall find. :)
