Hey y'all,
    Another great week in Georgia, we were able to do lots of great things. The weather was amazing this week! It was cool and it sprinkled a little rain off and on for a few days. We were able to see so many people. A few of our investigators got sick including Tina a few days before her baptism. I know that she will be baptized in the coming weeks, she has such a strong testimony.
    We had this huge ant hill in our apt complex so Sis Waycott and I decided to destroy it a little, it was p-day so we did something fun.
    Yesterday we were able to visit a less active lady who is deaf. I know ASL. It was such a great experience to be able to get to know her. When we first walked up she was excited to see us. She asked for a paper to write on. Then I started signing with her. Her face lit up. She was so excited to sign with me. She really opened up to us, we were able to get to know her. I was nervous because I haven't been able to sign a ton while on my mission. I feel like I forgot a few things. So my companion prayed that I would be able to remember the things I would need to communicate with her. So I took a deep breath and started signing and it came back. I was able to remember so many things. It was amazing! I even helped her remember a few signs that I don't remember learning. She taught me a few church signs. I'm so grateful I had the chance to use my talents to help someone. It was such a great blessing! We're going to see her again on Tuesday. I can't wait. While in Quitman we took dinner early and took some pictures of some old buildings. It was lots of fun!  
    We were able to find a wheel chair so Lawanda could come to church. I loved seeing her with the members talking with them, getting to know new friends, and seeing old friends. It was awesome! Sister Lambert from the ward, she is so amazing! She has an old violin and she is going to give it to me! One of the YSA missionaries, sister Waycott plays the violin, she is going to try to teach me. Another sister in the ward moved to Utah. We visited her before she left. I love being a missionary! We have Zone Conference this week. I'm excited to learn how to be a better missionary. Make it a great Week!
Macon Miracles,
Sister Wheelwright
