17 sang "I need thee every hour" to Gary the septa subway worker while waiting for the subway. Softened his heart and got his # 
18 had some sisters emergency/doubled into our area...never ending adventures and craze.
19 finally found a Parking spot after circling the streets and one ways for seriously I kid you not for 45 minutes and many prayers later.

Perfect timing, as were walking out of sister antons home after just talking about how much Melissa would benefit from meeting with us...she's outside! So I run over and I'm like hey Melissa!

Referencing 25----->
WHAT A HUGE MIRACLE AND TENDER MERCY. 
Originally we had met him at dunkin donuts and he was so impressed by sister jolley and I by the way we talked and were dressed. #recognizedasrepresentativesofchrist
Then we met with him like 2 days ago. Taught the restoration. He agreed with everything and is getting baptized in March! And he came to church the next day(: I love being a missionary. 

Referencing 23----> 
Perfect timing!
Sister antons friend Melissa is having a really hard time and sister anton before we left told us all about it, and I just felt super prompted and urged that she really needs us to go talk to her. Sister anton assured us she wouldn't like us to go over, so I was praying after we were getting out the door somehow we'd see her or something. And as we walked out I looked over towards where she lives AND THERE SHE WAS!!!!! I like ran over and was like hey Melissa! And she was like hey and was super happy to see us. She even walked us over to our bus stop and waited with us until it came so we were able to talk a little. Then sister Anton like 2 days later called us and told us Melissa wants us to come over! Literally I'm like so happy to help her and that Heavenly Father is just allowing me and sister jolley to be his hands and go around lifting others!

Sister Bennett shout out:
WHETHER YOU'RE THE ONE LIFTING, OR BEING LIFTED, YOU'RE BOTH EQUALLY BLESSED.

Next Week we'll have PDay on Tuesday because Monday we'll be having a mission wide conference!!!! Our entire mission will get together for like the whole day and we'll get 100 good notes/thoughts/spiritual guidance/pep talks/callstorepentance etc...
Stay tuned and I'll share what I learned. 

Had a pretty sacred & reassuring experience while listening to a temple fireside last night.
Super grateful for my Heavenly Father who is mindful of me and all who I love.

Thanks for keeping me in your prayers. 
You're in mine.
LOVE YOU
Sister Manson
