HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! |
We had a great miracle happen this week. With moving apartments, that meant
that we were starting from scratch with food. We took a few things from the last
house, but it wasn't much. We basically needed to restock our whole
kitchen!
I left Murphy right after a big pday. We had bought groceries that would
last us through the month and it seemed like it was the week that everything ran
out! So it was a big shopping trip. Not knowing I would be transferred to Hardin
Valley, I was low on funds. Sister Parry was in the same boat. We had no idea
how we would have enough money to stock a kitchen, we wondered if we would even
have enough money for the basics! As we were shopping, a random woman came up to
us and held out a Walmart gift card and said, "Hi missionaries, this is for you.
It has $25 on it." We didn't know what to say. She said that she just had a son
return from a mission and wanted to help out. That gift card saved us! It helped
us buy the essentials that we needed! Then this week we were fed nearly everyday
with members providing leftovers for us to take home afterwards! It got us
through until our monthly allowance came in for December. I wish I could express
my thanks even more fully to this lady. Truly a miracle.
