So as you all know, the work here has been slow lately, but this week changed everything!! We've had a couple people to teach throughout the last weeks but nobody that is close to baptism. But I hope yall had an awesome week, ima get right into what went down this week!
So on Tuesday we had zone conference and it was of course amazing! President gave a powerful speech on how we've been singing and praying and preparing for our time to serve a mission our whole lives and now we only got two years to give God everything! I also had to give a book of Mormon thought, and I think it went well, I was pretty nervous though not gonna lie.
Then we had exchanges this week with our zls and it was lots of fun, we went to their area so I got to try out my Spanish for the day and boy was it rough, but I did get a couple Spanish peoples numbers and i met a cool guy who wanted a book of Mormon!
Those are the only two different things from this week compared to others, the rest of the week we were finding all day. We've actually been finding quite a few people which has been a major blessing! But my focus turns to an insane miracle we had Saturday night. So we have been struggling to teach someone who will be baptized this transfer but I think God answered our prayers! Saturday night at literally 8:50pm we are out at Walmart when this guy walks out and literally walks up to my companion. After inviting him to church he was so excited to come to church, he had been lead to the Walmart to go get another Bible cause he wanted more scriptures and then boom we show up right when he is walking out. We ended up putting him on date to be baptized on June 8th! Then we also gave him a Book of Mormon since he actually used to have one then lost it. He was so happy we were there, he gave us both hugs and said he'd be at church. Well come to church, he pulls up so excited to learn more. He had so many people come up and say hi, he genuinely felt at home. And we just solidified his date to be baptized so if everything goes to plan he will be baptized in 3 weeks. He is the definition of elect, he is the Israel we are trying to gather!
Well anyways that's my week, we had lots of success. It was pretty cool too cause our ward said that everyday this past week they've all set a timer at 5pm to pray for Missionary work in the area and it is actually working!!! God answers and hears every prayer and he is just moving the work forward and forward at a fast pace. Now all we need to do is keep up!
OK I hope yall have an awesome day/week! I love everyone of yall! Keep being absolutely awesome and always have Christ on your minds!!
