Hey y'all,
          This week has been great! Our investigator had some concerns about Joseph Smith being so young. When he was listening to my mission Presidents talk last Sunday at Stake conference it reminded him of the prophets in the bible, and it helped him to understand how god is able to have young prophets. Now he is on date for baptism this Saturday! I'm so excited for him to be baptized and receive those blessings the gospel brings!
        My companion is being transferred tomorrow, I have mixed feelings on that. I'm so grateful for all the things I've learned from my companion, she taught me so much and was so patient with me. I'm sad to see her go, but I'm excited to meet my new companion I know that great things will happen as we all work together in this great work!

     I've learned so much from serving a mission, I feel so blessed to have this opportunity. My mission President emailed us this poem and I really love it so I thought I'd share it with you. Make it a great week!

Macon miracles,

Sister Wheelwright

Poem from "Author Unknown":
Courage, my young missionary, and don't forget,
That God is with you at every step.
You take for Him in a righteous cause,
Such as Teaching His sacred and Holy laws.
There are souls out there waiting to hear
The message you carry of faith and prayer,
Of a God who dwells in the heavens above,
And rules the worlds with the Spirit of Love.
Forget all worries and earthly care,
And put your soul in the message you bare.
Discouragement is always the devil's tool,
But show Him quickly that you are no fool.
Get down on your knees in humble prayer,
God's encouraging Spirit will meet you there.
There are souls out there in the mist and fog
Who are waiting for you and your message from God;
For He has love for each child that he owns,
And He wants them back in His heavenly homes.
Be not discouraged, no matter how hard the way,
But deliver the message God wants you to say.
