Hey!
I can't believe that tomorrow I have been out for 6 months. The Lord's time is so different compared to the world's time!
This
week was good. Sister A and I have seen miracles and have been able to
still be productive in our area. We've been able to set a lot of
appointments working with our members and some less actives. They've
given us referrals as well so we've still been able to go knock some
doors haha.
One cool miracle though! We were
out with our RS president again and we were not seeing any success. At
all. At one point we ended up on this steep dirt hill trying to find an
inactive member. We tried to go visit a lady named M**, who was sooo
nice to Sister A and me on the phone about a month back. Well, the door
we knocked on was the wrong apartment....So Sister E** called and
left a message. We decided to head to the apartments across the street
to try a couple less actives there and still, no success. Right as we
were about to call it a day the phone rang. It was M**! She was
just about home and wanted us to come by! We were able to stop by and
meet her. We talked for quite awhile. She shared her story of being
baptized at 14 and going in and out of activity, but she always ends
back at this church one way or another. She really wants to have a solid
testimony in this so she invited us back! When we met with her, she
shared some questions that she had and we were able to answer them. She
said that even though sometimes her brain starts to overthink about some
things, she always goes back and remembers how she's always felt here
and how she feels like there is a fullness here. Really the one thing
holding her back is the Book of Mormon. She hasn't read the full book
and she really wants to. She knows that if she can read it and decide
and know that it's true then she will be fine! ... Sister A** and I
are really just there to help her read the Book of Mormon. She remembers
pretty much everything else, although we will review it all. Her
husband is not a member, but is very supportive, and hopefully will gain
interest as M** is meeting with missionaries. It was so cool!
R**
and D** are still doing well! We had a great lesson with R** this
past week. At the end he asked our members that were there how long he
would have to wait to get an answer. It was one of the only times I've
seen him really really wanting to have an answer. I can't wait for him
to get it! We were able to get D** to stay for Gospel Essentials
yesterday which was great. The lesson was on baptism and it was exactly
what she and R** needed to hear. Brother H** gave a really
inspired lesson!
This week we have lessons with
R** and D** again, and hopefully M**. It should be a great
week. Transfer calls are this Saturday...I'll let you know what happens!
xoxo,
Sister G
