Elder Parson sent voice recordings this week...some in Spanish. It was great to hear his voice and hear he and his companion talk.
So
this week was amazing! ME and my companion have been saying almost every day
this week, God is so amazing with us! To explain this part, I would like to
relate an experience.
So
this week we have been really pushing to find some new investigators. We have
been using many different ways to find new investigators. On Thursday and Friday, we had been doing everything to find new investigators: contacting with
members, looking for less actives and just talking to everyone. And I was so
sure that we would find some news, but on those days we didn't find anyone. On Saturday, me and Elder Sorbonne were planning and we needed to find some new
investigators. I was starting to get stressed but we felt that we should put
our confidence in the Lord and he would help us out. We both prayed and we felt
that we should contact one street in particular--we both saw it in our minds along with how we should contact people there by reading the Book of Mormon and giving out candy.
We went
there and we started to touch some doors. While we were doing this, a lady put
her head out the window and said in great English, "Do you speak English?" She
came down the stairs with her brother and she starts to talk to us. She had
lived in the states a while ago and was super excited to talk to us. Sunday we
went back and we were able to meet her family, all of whom spoke English really
well. We just had them read a page of the Book of Mormon and the Spirit came in
immediately. The family told us that they had been looking for many different
churches but they haven't felt good in any one. We were able to relate to them the
first vision and some of them had tears in their eyes. We invited them to study the Book of Mormon, come to church, and be baptized and they were really excited to
find out if this is the true church. It was such a great miracle to us that
God is always willing to help us when we have faith.
I
know that God lives and loves all of His children.
Have
a great week
