Drew mail 6-29-20: "Tender Mercies"

 Hey everyone! How was your week? I hope it's been a good one, and that you've been able to see some tender mercies in your lives!  We've been able to see quite a few, which have helped us keep going and remember that Heavenly Father has a plan for all of us. 
One of the first things is that we've been working with a lady named Helen since I got here. Her mom was baptized at the beginning of the year, then went to Las Vegas to stay with her other daughter  and got stuck in the quarantine there. We felt it would help Helen a lot if we could have her mom support her and share her experiences with her, but we hadn't been able to get a hold of her and we were struggling with knowing how to help her.  On Friday we called Helen after she got back from visiting her mom and sister, and it turned out that her mom came back to Beaver with her! So we were able to have the lesson with both of them and it was a neat experience! Hopefully now that she's got that extra support she'll keep moving forward towards baptism! 
Another silly little tender mercy we had was when we were going on a walk around our area. We were crossing the crosswalk and a man pulled over and told us to come over, and gave us 20 dollars. Ha,ha, we were like what??  But it was a super nice thing!
It can be hard sometimes when we feel like a lot of good things aren't happening, but the truth is there are lots of tender mercies. We just have to look around! I know Heavenly Father loves you so much and is mindful of everything going on! He wants to bless you and will, so just keep your eyes open! Love you all!
