One more week, one less week. It's amazing how entering into
my last transfer of the mission is such a whirlwind of emotions. Excitement to
see my Family but sadness to be leaving the mission. The good thing is
that all the emotions are a better reason to finish Strong!! We're having tons
of miracles here and I'm sure they'll keep coming.
New Converts
This week we had the baptism of Amanda which was really
cool. When we knocked her door her grandma tried to make excuses for us not to
come back and she came to the door and kept taking away all her excuses. After
the first lesson we got back and she had already read 14 chapters in the Book
of Mormon!! Her baptism was cool because she was super prepared to receive the
gospel. She already lived many of the gospel principles, she even already
fasts!
Reactivation
We're doing a huge Project to visit all of the recent
converts from the last 2 years in this Ward because there are a lot that are
less active. We met one Family that received us really well and accepted easily
the invitation to go back to church. It seemed as though they were just waiting
for the invitation to go back to church. They went to church and one of the
members of the Family even went up and bore her testimony.
Pure Love of Christ
I got to see a miracle this week in sacrament. A less-active
member walked in a few minutes late after not having gone to church in a few
weeks. One of the members behind us yet out what was nearly a yelp and ran the
isle to give him a huge hug and welcome him back. It was cool to see that kind
of love.
Hope you all enjoy the stories and have a great week!
