Great week! The
weather is starting to warm up and I am definitely getting some spring fever! I
can't wait for the warm weather to return. This week had some great things
happen! We had a lesson with a recent convert named Marilyn. While we were
there we met her brother David. He came and sat in on the lesson. He didn't
really say anything but at the end of the lesson he had a couple of questions.
We talked a little bit about the restoration and the Book of Mormon. After he looked
at his sister and said, "I guess I'll come to church with you
tomorrow." You should have seen how happy Marilyn was! She testified that
this church was "the truth" and that were the ones with "the
plan" haha. He came to church the next day! We had a pretty interesting
experience with our friend Billy Bob. He was telling us about his stomach
problems and how he was going to have to have surgery. I think part of the problem
is that he likes to eat out at a pizza restaurant every day. He started patting
his belly to demonstrate that there was a problem with it. Then he offered us
the opportunity to rub his belly so we could feel how weird it was. Elder Griffin
declined the offer so I decided to give it a little poke just so he would feel
good haha. The people you meet out here are awesome! We had a lesson with Julia
and it was great. She is trying to recognize her answer from the Holy Ghost. We
asked her why she comes to church every week and why she allows us to come and
teach her. She said that she has never met nicer people before then the ones
she has met in the church. She told us how every time she goes she feels the Holy Ghost and the whole thing just feels good. She then said that she has
never felt closer to God before then she does right now! It was very powerful
when she said that. She knows this is all true, it won't be long before she is
ready.
Well thank you for all of the support. Have a great week!
