How great is this calling

Dear Pamily, Moses Lake is having crazy storms! I hope that everyone is well. The Philippines have typhoons as well. My area has heavy ulan right now. My area wont get too crazy, just up in Manila. I am very blessed. My kasama left! She is done with her mission and is going home to Salmar. I am so grateful to learn from her! I am here in Los Banos for the week! I am working with Sister Asunction, the sister training leader! She is amazing and I feel the spirit so strongly. We had a lesson with Sister Agdon. She is so close to being prepared for binyag! She reads, prays and has an open heart. She just needs to ask if it is true. The specifics about the propeta and Aklat. I am going to focus on her this week. I really think she could be baptised by next transfer! She is 37 and has the cutest laugh I have ever heard. My area will be recieving 2 more sisters! 4 sisters in my area! YAH! So I will recieve a new trainer, Because I am still training, and then I will be givin the oportunity to lead the area. Wow. I am grateful that the President trusts me to lead this area here. There is much work to do. I know the area pretty well and we are working on the ward mission plan with the ward, so things are rolling. Sister Marino and I were punted (Told us to come back another day, were sick, or not home) 5 times in a row on thursday!! Then I thought that we should go visit one of our investigators that we havent seen all week. On the way we OYMed a couple sitting on the bench of their little sidewalk shop. We taught the 1st lesson there and taught on the sidewalk with the busy traffic behind us. I love praying in the open so that everyone can see, its my favorite :) After we taught the lesson, she said, i want you to share this message with my whole family! So exciting! I am so excited to teach her family! Then on tuesday we were also punted about 3 times...when it rains everyone takes naps, so we told one of our LA familys daughters we would come back later. ABout an hour later, we came back and her neightbors were waiting outside there door. They said, We saw you two outside. And heard you say that you would come back later. We wanted to hear what you had to say, I wanted you two to come into my home. So we taught the restoration. I am amazed how the sprit works. The Holy Ghost told them and prompted them to wait outside for us and gave them the desire to speak with us. I am exctied to teach them too! It is so hard to find those who are ready and softened to hear the message of the Restored church. I love this gospel. Everything fits together like puzzel pieces. We found Sister Edith the other day. She is searching for the truth and is listening to other churches. We taught her the Restoration and the spirit was so strong. As i recited the first vision, the spirit pierced her heart. I could feel it. It testified to her the truth of what really did happen. She said she will be baptized if she recieves a witness through the Holy Ghost. I know she will because that is a promise from God if she does her part. I trust in God. This is His gospel. I sure do love this calling. I love being a Missionary for the restored church on the earth. I am so grateful to be a messenger of this beautiful calling. I know that this is the only way to return back to our Heavenly Father. I love studying. I become an investigaor of the Lord when I study. I learn so much every day :) Ingat! Mahal Kita! Sister Reed
