It's raining in Georgia

Hello all! Well in reading mom and dads emails I figure I better start with the weather today! It started raining Wednesday night and has been raining ever since! It goes through spurts where it will just down pour like I have never seen before then it will be like you were walking under the misters at the grocery store! It has still been in the high 70s/low 80s and needless to say very humid! Last night there was a flash flood warning for the greater Atlanta area ( So basically my whole mission!) that was in effect until 2 pm today I believe! There are some cool lighting and thunderstorms happening though! We haven't had any problem with flooding here that I know of and I have been told that the rain we are getting now is nothing compared to the remnants of a hurricane! So things are very wet but all is well! We had a very cool experience this week. It started on Wednesday night as we were planning our day for Thursday and we couldn't decide what to do from 1 to 2 on Thursday, we talked about a couple different things but none of them felt right but we decided to close planning figuring that whatever we decided to do would be good. Well we were out with a member on Thursday morning and as we were about to go get lunch(so it was about 12 o clock) we got a text message with information of someone that wanted a bible( we call this a text message from the Lord) as we talked to the member about the way the referrals worked and she said, "well call her and lets take her the bible before I take you home. Well we called but she couldn't met with until one! As we went into give her the Bible we started talking about the restoration and the Prophet Joseph Smith, as we taught her she told us that she had met with the Missionaries about 8 years ago in Alabama and had been searching for the same spirit she had felt with them ever since! She also told us that she felt like God had sent us to her! We then told her the story of planning and not knowing what to do at one o'clock! She then started to cry and said that she now knew why she was suppose to be in Conyers and that she hasn't felt that good since she moved her 3 years ago! We have seen her everyday since and she came to church yesterday and loved it! We have set a baptismal date of the 3rd of October! I'm so excited for her! We sent a referral over there for someone to start teaching her! Please pray for our investigators! Well I better go! I love you all! Sister Beth Snoddy!
