Howdy!!
This week went by super super fast! Two days of this week, we were
not able to work in our area because we were with the assistants helping them
in their area, but it was a good experience with them! I worked with Elder
Zuñiga for the day on Tuesday, and we had lots of great lessons! I met a guy
that has two kids living in Wisconsin! What a small world right?!
We have seen lots of progress in the people we are teaching in
this week. In almost every lesson we had, we were able to have a member of the
church from our ward come with us, and they helped us so much!! This is the
greatest ward ever! On Sunday in the Sacrament meeting, it was so full that it
almost got the point that people had to stand because there almost weren't any
chairs left!!
Jes. is progressing so so well! The Bishop came with us to visit
Jes., and he has been reading the Book of Mormon, and has really felt that it
is the word of God. He has asked super great questions, the greatest questions,
and yesterday he stayed for all three hours of church and loved it! He was
super into it. And he reminds me so so much of Grandpa Daines, so it makes me
even more excited that he is progressing because it is as if I was teaching
Grandpa!
Char. is also doing well! He is still preparing to be baptized
on January 28th. We hope that he can receive an answer to his prayers to know
that this is the right decision. He has been praying and reading a bit, and is
super interested about eternal families. We hope he can realize the great
blessing it is to be able to be with our families forever!
We have some other great investigators, and have had some other
cool experiences but that is pretty much it for this week! In this past
transfer we had 6 missionaries in the ward, but sadly, we are now only 4, and
so our area is a bit bigger but it is exciting to have some new area to work
in too! I know that God prepares His children to receive His Gospel in His time.
I am so glad I can be led by His Spirit to find those people He has prepared
for us to find.
