Hello everyone!
It's been a very busy week!
This
week we had some really powerful spiritual lessons. We contacted a
family that we had previously been teaching a few months ago but hadn't
been able to get a hold of and they invited us over to their house. They
explained that they were experiencing a passing of a loved one and that
they felt like they really needed to call us. In the lesson we were
able to explain the Plan of Salvation and it was truly amazing to see
the comfort that the plan brought to them. We asked if we could come
back and explain more and they asked us if we could come back the very
next day, which we did. The spirit was very strong. We had prepared a
few scriptures that we felt could really help them and so we turned to
one of them. While reading I felt like I needed to turn to Mosiah
16:7-9 and I just put my finger to hold the page, We talked about
another scripture and than a few minutes later he asked us a few questions
and than an amazing thing happened-I looked at where I had turned to in
Mosiah and it was a perfect answer to his questions. We read the
scripture and he understood, it was truly a miracle to see how through
the Holy Ghost we can be guided on to what people need. It was truly
amazing to see at how the Book of Mormon can answer the questions of our
very soul and can give us that peace and reassurance that we oh so need
in living in these challenging times.
We also saw Ash just
about everyday and had some powerful lessons with him. One of my
favorite things he said last week was when we invited him to pray to
truly know about the restoration, and he was like, "Not to be rude, but I've already prayed and I know."
Last lesson with Ash. |
We were like-that's awesome!
He's
been thinking about a specific baptismal date and it is just amazing to
see his faith grow. He moved this last week, just outside of our area
but he is really working at changing his surroundings to become better.
It was sad since we won't be teaching him anymore but I know the Elders
will do their best.

Overall it was just a wonderful week, a lot of doors were opened to us that haven't been in the past couple of weeks.
Thank you for your prayers!
Love
