Well I have some sad news, I'm finally leaving Miami and am headed north to Port St. Lucie which is the farthest north area in our mission. I'm so sad to be leaving but we had so many miracles in my last week here.
Three months ago me and Sister Tui contacted a less active named Ashley who wasn't interested in coming back to church because she was going to another non-denominational church. We asked how long it had been since she read the BoM and she said she no longer owned one. So we gave her a BoM and the info for church and told her if she ever needed help to let us know. Well she called us this last Friday saying she wanted to come to church and she came and loved it and wants to be a Mormon again.
We got nominated as volunteers of the Month of September at Miami Rescue Mission. I have loved volunteering here so much. So many miracles with the residents. One of the residents is a Mormon who hasn't been to church in a while. Well we got him a BoM and he told us that as soon as he opened the book he felt the spirit. What an amazing experience.
It's been so sad saying goodbye to so many dear friends. I really have loved serving here so much and I'm grateful for all the growth that I have experienced.

One last cool story. A few weeks ago we knocked into a less active high priest who referred us to his less active kids withe the requirement that we couldn't tell them that he sent them. So we knocked on the door (with a member) and one of the sons said he wasn't interested in a prayer and said nothing about be a member. Thank goodness we had a member with us because she called him out on being a member. Well he wasn't interested in coming back to church but he referred us to his less active sister and we met with her this week and she is excited to come back to church. She currently goes to church sometimes with her boyfriend but she still prays like a mormon and is a mormon, super amazing experience.
Well that's all for now thanks for all your love and support. I'll send you my new address next week.
Love,
Sister Jennings
