Hello Everybody!
We had 12 L/w
(where a member is with us when we teach) lessons!!! I think that's the
most I've ever had in one week my whole mission! We have continued to
work with members to go on splits and this week was particularly
successful. A returned missionary in the 4th ward went out with Sis.
Soakai and they went and visited all of her friends. She is amazing! You
can feel that she loves the Lord and still wants to serve Him. I'm very
pleased with how our wards are growing and our Stake President feels
the same way.
We continue to
work with Darren Draney and his family; he told us that he's okay with
baptism but he doesn't feel he has the faith to be baptized yet. We are
sharing multiple scriptures with him about faith (we have used Alma 32)
and he is reading the Book of Mormon, he just isn't sure. We try to
explain that faith isn't a sure knowledge, but he likes to question
everything so it's slow progress for him. I love that man and I really
do feel that he is close, he just needs to accept his answer. We are
also teaching his daughter, Amber. She has a lot of questions and she
really likes us so she asks her questions. I feel that she has a true
desire to learn more about God and spiritual things, it's just a bit
hard when we are around her dad who demands attention. I'm excited to
see how they progress this week.
We found a new
investigator named Seth; we were tracting and he happened to be home
that night! He hasn't had too much interaction with the church but he
has had significant people in his life who were members. He had a few
questions for us and we answered them and then tied into the
Restoration. We invited him to come to church and he said he might, but
he didn't come, so we are aiming for next week! He said he would read
the Book of Mormon and we have a lesson with him tonight, so we'll be
able to follow up then. I'm really excited that we found him! Now, to
help him prepare for baptism.
We are seeing
miracles everyday and I love it! The Lord has truly been blessing us
with tender mercies and I enjoy recording them. The growth this area has
been seeing is astonishing and I am so grateful for all of the people
I've met. Sis. Soakai and I are super close and I love working with her.
Life is good, we are working hard, and faith our fears. I know that
obedience brings happiness, repentance is real, and miracles still
happen.
I'm sorry my email
wasn't super detailed this week (though I'm sure a few of you are
grateful for that!) but those are the major events. I love you all and I
hope you have a great week! Remember who you are!
Love,
