Another Transfer in Ponca-dise

Hi Family

So Sister Allred and I are staying in Ponca City for another transfer!! We were shocked, but so excited for another transfer full of working hard, and lots of laughs. I am so grateful for the fact that I get 6 more weeks to serve the people of Ponca City. I was really worried that I was going to have to leave this land that I love. But I won't have to worry about that for 6 more weeks. 
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT IS ALMOST SEPTEMBER? Where has time gone? In missionary life, days seem like weeks and weeks seem like days. It blows my mind that I have already been with Sister Allred for 6 weeks. Wow, but we still love each other so that is a good sign! She said yesterday after we found out. "get ready for 6 more weeks of me scaring you" So as you can tell from that life is pretty eventful. 
So I want to email you this week about the M. family because they are the best. 
So we met Brother M. about a week ago. I would say last Friday, we were just biking everywhere talking to everyone, hoping we would find someone. Well we biked by and stopped to talk to him. As we did he had such a huge smile on his face, and we shared with him how we could be with our families forever, and he invited us to come back the next day. Well we did, and we brought a member who brought such a spirit with her. She testified about how the gospel has blessed her family, and we shared the restoration with him, and a Book of Mormon. 

He paused us in the middle of a sentence, and said. "You want to know something? I don't pray much, but I was praying yesterday that God would show me a sign of where I need to go with my life, and then y'all showed up on my front porch." 
We smiled and said "What do you think that means?" 
He said "Well my wife thinks that means I need to check out your church.." 
We laughed about it for a little bit, but shared that we knew the message that we share will bring him happiness, We said a prayer and then left. 

We went to another appointment, and then on to another when it fell through, we were sad but as we were walking away we got a call from Brother M. and he said "Right as yall were leaving my wife came out to visit, do you think you could come back?" and Sister Allred and I almost shouted yes!
So we went back and had a really good discussion about our church and it was so great. The Spirit was so strong, and I was so excited for them!! We are visiting with them every day. DAILY CONTACT BRINGS MIRACLES! Se would not have the relationship we do with them without it. So that has strengthened my testimony.

I love you all so much. Please pray for the M family that their hearts will be softened to the message of Jesus Christ that we are sharing with them! I am so excited to see where this next transfer in Ponca takes us. 
I love you all and miss you even more
Love ,
Sister Webber
