First off we had 4 investigators, which 3 of them have a baptismal
date, and 3 members, who usually don't attend, come to church this
week! It was sooo sweet! It was so exciting and felt so good!
This week was good. We met a couple people that seemed pretty
promising. One lady was so excited after talking to us she told us to
come back the next day and she thanked us for stopping her. That was
sweet. Met this dad that said we could come back. Hopefully things
will go well there. We stopped by this lady we have talked to before,
she knows a member in my old companions (elder Butikofer) area. So we
showed her the prince of peace video and she liked it. She started
crying and told us she hasn't felt gods love or anything before and
always feels like she gets cold shoulders from churches. So we
promised our message would help and then we set an appointment for
Saturday. It's cool cause she told us in the beginning, "I wish you
guys were located down here." And we were like, ".... we are!!!!" Haha
it was great.
We texted a girl from last week that we met and we have been texting a
lot. She can't meet because she is a nurse person for someone and
literally works like 24/7 and lives with the guy she takes care of.
But she is so cool. She said she read every summary of each chapter in
the Book of Mormon and then read the chapter if it sounded super
interesting. So things are cool with her!
Friday as we were planning for our week elder dey and I had a super
strong impression we needed to move someone's baptismal date up. The
feeling felt super urgent. It was crazy because her previous date was
for nov 4. And that's already pretty soon. But we felt like we had to
do it. And so we looked at the next weekend and on Friday the branch
was going to the temple so that was out, Saturday was the branches
trunk or treat party. So we were figuring out what day and time. We
also had to figure how we were going to teach her everything we need
to teach her before her baptism cause we have to teach her a lot. And
it's one week away. So we set to have her baptism on the 29th. And we
made lesson plans and figured it out how we can cram it all in before
then and we pretty much have to go over every single day this week to
make it possible. But it's going to happen. As long as she passes her
interview all will be well!! So that was pretty crazy! That's never
happened to me before. The prompting was so strong and I knew we had
to.
Anyways. Our other 2 people with baptismal dates are doing awesome!
They are so solid!
So things are going so good here in Millersburg!
Anyways that's my week in a wrap.
Oh yea, Sunday elder dey and I gave talks. I gave a talk about faith
using the story of David and Goliath. I finished it literally like an
hour before I gave it. Anyways mom or anyone else that wants to read
it I can send it to you if you tell me.
Love you all! Miss you all!
Breakfast at the bopps!!!
