10-15-12 Elder Devin Dillard


This past week was incredible. It was full of the typical missionary activities along with meeting Gladys Knight and the SUV choir.
As I was helping set up chairs and getting pamphlets/programs ready for the guests, I said Hi to a woman passing by. She said Hi! And I looked up and realized it was Gladys Knight, haha. That was about all the interaction her and I had. I stood around and listened to her a few feet away, practice with some of the band members. THEY ARE SO TALENTED!  It was an exceptionally spiritual fireside! 

Listening and enjoying the music was a big highlight! The best thing that happened to me that night was this:  I was helping people check their tickets, making sure they were the right showing, talking and laughing with non-members when I stumbled across one of the women I was teaching back in St. Cloud! I told you all the story of how we found her not long ago. She is now a baptized member! It was so good to see her, two of her daughters, and her nephew.  After the show it was so awesome to see her walking out of the show crying! What an awesome experience. Such a blessing for me to see her progression.

The rest of the week was great and I really love being here on my mission.  I hope you all have a wonderful week!
God Bless you,
Love,
Elder Devin Dillard
