Went on exchanges this past week with Franklin and Plymouth. I
stayed in Belmont with Sister Miller (Franklin). We had such a good
conversation with a non-member while we helped her move. She kept
saying, "If this is it," "If you guys have the truth." We had the
opportunity to bare testimony about eternal families and the power of
the priesthood. We told her that she is a dry-Mormon (someone who acts Mormon and follows the same things we do.. They are just not baptized yet. :) )and she thought
that was so funny! Ready for some more miracles?
1.We taught Farah. The language barrier is getting
better between us. (She speaks Farsi). We have someone in the ward come
with us and she was able to help us teach her English. We also were able
to teach her about the Holy Ghost. She had never heard of Him before. I
am not sure what she got out of the conversation but the Spirit was so
strong. I love her so much and so does Heavenly Father. So good. :)
2. Sarah Lopez came to mutual! We had a great lesson
with her parents about faith and the light of Christ. They are such
good people. Hopefully we can get them to the Belmont ward soon.
3. We helped out at activity days. The theme of the day was Science!! Heavenly Father loves me. :)
4.
We taught two first lessons this week. One was to a woman named Maria
Teresa. We read the Book of Mormon with her and she asked such good
questions about why bad things happen to good people. She is heading to
Bolivia tomorrow so we left her with a million chapters to read in the
BOM. She wants to give a BOM to her husband. Being a missionary already.
5. The other was to a guy named Van. He is a super
genius. He did the research for the article about the brain in this
months National Geographic. Check it out for me because I can't. :) haha
He had such good questions about science and religion. I honestly only
understood about 40% of what was said. He thought what we talked about
was fascinating and wants to be apart of growing what we have. So cool.
I spent Wednesday in Plymouth
with Sister Slater. We stacked books at the library for service. I
thought I wanted to be a librarian.. I don't. haha Read scriptures with
their recent convert, Dave. He used to play in the NFL.
Almost our entire zone was out
sick for district meeting on Friday. I caught the bug and spent most of
the day on Saturday sleeping because going out in public would have
been a bad idea.. hahaha. I am feeling better. Still stuffy, but oh well.
Life is good. :)
