Sister Naomi Koyle: I hope yous have a good day!

Hello everyone! So this week we almost hit a deer, just as I turned my brights on a deer popped out of the trees like a daisy, ran half way on the road, and turned around and went back. If he would have kept running straight I would have hit him for sure, but the Lord protects his missionaries :). We also lost our phone for a solid 24 hours this week, we knew for sure that it was somewhere in Gresham so that was good, turns out it was laying in our ward mission leaders drive way. Also my companion is sick and she got Grandma and I sick. So Grandma made me drink this concoction of onions, garlic, lemon juice, honey, and ginger, so that was interesting, I feel better though.

We got to meet with Killian, our recent convert yesterday and we were talking about missionary work and he said "I would be a dope missionary" haha and we were like yes you would be! So that is pretty exciting that he wants to go on a mission and he is going to the temple for baptisms in the middle of November so that is super exciting as well. His friend, who is a member that is preparing to go on a mission, told us that Killian came up to him and said hey do you want to go on a mission together? and he was like, well it doesn't really work that way, hahaha. There is that scripture in D&C 18:15 that talks about how great shall be your joy. And you know, baptisms are great, but it is even better when the people who are baptized continue to live the gospel, that is what brings real joy. Nothing else super exciting has happened, but things here have been going well, they are definitely on the upside. I hope everyone has a great day and a great week!

Love yous!
