Another Week Gone! March 16, 2015

Another week gone. Can you believe it? This week was full of miracles! Surprise I know! :)

 

On Tuesday we meet with D, K, and K!

 

D is being baptized on Saturday! She is so excited! She has been investigating for less than a month! She has watched almost every video on mormonchannel.org including The District, which are missionary training videos. We taught her the Law of Chastity last week and she related it to the District! It was so funny! D has taught me that it is solely by the spirit that someone is converted. I haven't done anything except prepare to teach her and the spirit takes it from there. She loves the gospel and is so excited to come closer to her Father in Heaven and Savior Jesus Christ!

 

K is steadily progressing! She is still having Word of Wisdom problems but she received a priesthood blessing on Thursday and loved it!  The Spirit was so strong and everything she needed to hear was in the blessing. Heavenly Father knows exactly what each of us need to hear exactly when we need to hear it! She quit her job so that she could come to church! I love seeing the change that people go through as they come closer to their Heavenly Father decide to align their will with his! Her baptism date is still set for March 28! We might have to push it back a week but hopefully not!

 

And K! We met with her on Tuesday and she had a question for us. She has been researching the church for quite some time, her only question was about the Great Apostasy. She just wanted more clarification on it. We decided to teach her the whole first lesson so it made sense. The spirit was so strong! She is so ready to hear the restored gospel! She said that she has been praying to know if this is the church that she should join but hasn't received and answer. We talked about how the Holy Ghost works and she realized that she has received and answer! She wants to be baptized but she needs to talk to her parents first, they are out of the country but when they get back she is going to talk to them. They are not religious so hopefully all goes well!

I have learned so much about the nature of Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost through my experiences this week! I love being a missionary and being a tool in the Lord's hands to bring His children back into His fold.
