Thanks Mom for
all the experiences I've shared through email and other things getting placed
on the blog. Our week was absolutely fantastic.
One of our investigators has been investigating for some time now, but has
never been baptized. This last week he dropped off his best friend at the MTC
and got to visit Temple Square. It was at the temple that he felt the spirit
absolutely come over him and he's been on a spiritual high ever since. He came
home and knew he needed to be baptized so we finally got to set him on date for
July 27. I'm sad I will be home for it, but I'm happy for the experience of
helping him get there. Not only that, but his mom who's not a member asked him
to take her this coming week to temple square so she can see it. They will do
that on Tuesday for his birthday. She wants the missionary lessons as well and
asked us to at least teach the first lesson then turn her over to the other missionaries.
lol. We have two other guys who will be baptized in the coming months as well.
They really want to be baptized. We taught a girl a couple weeks ago and turned
her over to the sister missionaries in the ward and she will be baptized this
next month as well.
We have seen
the work truly hastening in our area. Though college is out it is no longer
affecting our teaching pool. We have found 10 new investigators in the last 2
weeks. I've never had that happen in my mission.
I'm really sad
to be ending, but I will finish strong here and make the family and Heavenly
Father, and Christ proud. I'm coming to terms now with what's happening and I
know good things are always to come.
So great
things are happening, I love it. We're as busy as can be.
