Canada Day

July 2, 2014

Hey friends and family!

I am sorry to be e-mailing late, canada day was yesterday and the libraries are closed on monday, so I didn't get to e-mail until today. Yesterday was my last Canada in the field! ahhhh! I am definitely not ok with having less than a year left! (ok so maybe it's 11 and 1/2 months to go, but still!). I am loving every second of my mission, and I am just so happy to be here!

This past week was tough, we met a lot of new people but couldn't secure appointments with a lot of them for some reason, it was really difficult. But we were able to talk with Elli and Let, and we think they will be preparing for the first week in August, we have to confirm that this week though. PLEASE keep them in your prayers! Also, we get transfer calls this week, and I would really like to stay, so please keep me in your prayers! But seriously. We had a really crazy experience this past week on Saturday. We were walking to all of our appointments and finding locations (we walk whenever we can, who needs a car?) and it just started POURING rain on us. I could have jumped in a swimming pool and I would have been just as wet as we were on Saturday. We were drenched head to foot, and no one was outside, and it was just really tough. So, during lunch we went to change and get the car. Our coats were drenched and we didn't have any spares, so we thought we were going to get soaked again whenever we were outside. We really needed to get out to all these appointments, and so I just told Elder Johnson that we should pray that the storm would clear (I don't want it to sound like I did anything special, I just made a suggestion). So, we prayed. When we were done praying we went outside and the storm was completely cleared! There were storm clouds surrounding Winkler, but completely clear skies above us. It was such an incredible experience, we were able to get to a lot of our appointments and have a successful day, and I am just so grateful for Heavenly Father answering our prayer. I want to testify to all of you that miracles are REAL, Heavenly Father does love us, and He wants us to succeed in life. When we get on our knees and pray for help and then get on our feet and go to work, He will bless us.

I love you all, thank you for the support, I hope you have a wonderful week!

With Love,

Elder Kendall
