March 16, 2020 - "you make your plans and you hear God laughing" (Week 52) - Susquehanna, PA


Ain't it funny how life changes? 

Wow so much has happened this week so make sure you stay tuned for a crazy email!

First off, I hit my 1 year mark. WOOT WOOT!!!

The week just started off pretty normal. The site was very busy but it wasn't anything that we couldn't handle. Slowly each day is when we got more and more news that the church had published. The biggest shock was learning that all church meetings around the world had been suspended. 

Well, that is when we really started wondering about the site here. So many people come here from all over the world, so we would have a good chance of getting it. Saturday comes around, the phone is ringing like crazy and we are just taking it hour by hour waiting to find out what's going to happen. Well, later that day we found out that all of the church history sites will be closed until May 1st. 

Well, on Sunday we got a call telling us that we were going to be sent out proselyting until things calmed down and until the site opens. That was kind of sad, but God truly does have a plan. Well, we were getting ready to head out for 6 weeks and then we got another call. So now we are staying here until further notice. We have truly been bombarded with so many things this week.

But on a brighter side of things, Hermana Rodriguez and I took some AMAZING tours! 

As we were getting all of this news and so much was changing I though a lot about this quote from President Nelson talking about Harmony, Pennsylvania. "Everything that happened in this area has profound implications for your lives.

I have never felt like these things relate more to me than they do now. We always share that Joseph and Emma had the faith to follow the Lord when they didn't know what the future held. I feel just like them stuck in limbo waiting to figure out what's going to happen to me. I really don't know what the future holds, but I know that the Lord has a plan and that I will follow him. 

I hope you all stay safe and that you don't catch any diseases (or a virus). 
stay safe!
