This week was so good! We saw so many miracles this week and we were
able to find so many new people to teach, which was a huge miracle!
On Monday night we were out in our area trying to contact potential
investigators and preach to anyone who will listen to us but it was
crazy because the wind was blowing at what felt like 90mph. But we
kept working and a little later, it started POURING and there was
lightening everywhere! Then came the hail. And the roads literally
started flooding! It was insane. At all happened so quick, we were in
the middle of talking to someone on their doorstep when the storm
started and got SOAKED. But it was so worth it. Well, because there
were tornado sirens going off, we couldn't really stay in our area any
longer but don't worry, the hot now sign was on at Krispy Kreme as we
were driving home and totally stopped to get some free donuts. We
figured that if we were going to die from a tornado, we wanted to die
happy haha..
On Tuesday we taught a mom and son that were super interested. We had
just tracked into them back around New Years but then nothing came
from it and we got a call this week saying that she wanted to meet
with us! The lesson went really well! We had dinner with a family in
our ward from Colombia and ate a ton of Colombian food that was all
super delicious. We got to finally use our Spanish a little bit too,
which was way nice! It's so frustrating trying to learn a new language
when you only get to speak it once in a blue moon but thats okay! Ill
take any chance i get.
We went on exchanges on Wednesday and that was good. I was with Sister
Costely in Olathe 1st ward and nobody was interested or even nice to
us but thats okay haha some days are better than others but it'll all
work out in the end.
We had zone conference on Thursday and that was really good! There was
a super good talk given by our zone leader on faith. We also talked a
lot about the joy of repentance. We did lots of role plays and played
a game to see if people in the zone have the 42 doctrinal point
scriptures memorized. We had pasta for lunch and it was like the 5th
time this week...its awful. But i think sis Davies got food poisoning
or something cause she has been sick ever since lunch at zone
training.
We taught paul on Friday and had dinner with him at this place called
the T Loft. It was so good! We taught the Restoration again so that he
would understand the priesthood and why he needs to be baptized into
our church because we have the priesthood and why he should attend our
church and all that stuff. It was a really good lesson and he said
that the would attend church with us not yesterday cause he has people
in town but the week after he would! So that was awesome! He is so
sweet!
We had a sweet lesson on Saturday! His name is Bob and he lives across
the street from a potential so we met him when we were looking for the
potential and he was so sweet! We walk into the lesson and he starts
off by saying "so i have some good news for you, i want to start
coming to church with you a week from tomorrow and I want a church
tour on Wednesday at 2. I hope you're not mad but i haven't finished
the whole Book of Mormon yet but I read Moroni 10 and all of Nephi.
I'm not sure I want to be baptized yet but maybe eventually...". It
was INSANE. Such a huge miracle and the member that was with us was in
shock haha. We taught him the Restoration and he accepts prophets and
wants the priesthood and everything. It was so good!
Sunday was really good as well! We had a couple member lessons lined
up to try and get to know some of the members in our ward. We seem to
be gaining the trust from the members, which has been super helpful!
It's been really good getting to know them, there are some amazing
people here!
I'm so grateful for all the miracles that we saw this week and I know
that I couldn't do this work on my own! I love this gospel and I love
being able to share it! I love and miss you all tons though!! I love
getting emails and pictures from you! Love and miss you lots!
