This past week has been AMAZING! We have had great success
talking with everyone and the Lord has continue to put people in our path to
find. There were a few off days for contacting in the beginning of the week and
then we realized we had some serious following up to do with the people we had
already contacted. So, with that, we got our finding pool online as well and have
been doing our best to contact everyone. As a result the Lord is helping us
contact again. We even extended a baptismal date to a guy on the street and he
accepted. It was what we call a, "soft baptismal date," but it was a pretty cool
experience. We could tell he looked a little bit down and so we talked to him,
testified to him and promised him blessings. It was awesome!
Also in District
meeting I gave a training on how to bear our testimonies and used D&C 1:7-8 and broke it down to everyone. It was an awesome experience. The Lord truly
was helping me out and now as a result, if everyone applies it, they will be able
to teach and testify with even more convincing power and conviction. We also
extended a baptismal date to Sonia, one of our investigators, for the 26th of
this month.
Everything is going really good here. At the bus stop we ran into
this awesome guy named Bill. He had a roommate in college who was Mormon and
then got a calling and ended up moving to Utah. He was always interested and
was a devoted born again Christian for 7 years. He is a very sincere and
friendly guy. He gave us all his info. and committed himself to come to
church.
There is so much to write about, but no time! I was able to give a
blessing to my wonderful companion. I am so grateful for the Priesthood and
feel that I keep learning things each and every time I use it.
I know that this is Christ's Church restored on the earth
today. That Joseph Smith was a Prophet and that Thomas S. Monson is the Prophet
today. I know that God is a God of Miracles and that truly miracles have not
ceased today and will never cease as long as we are faithful. I leave these
things with you in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
