Wow! What a week! First off transfers happened today and....I'm
staying in Medford with Sister Peterson!!! We are going to light
Medford on fire this transfer!! 😆🔥🔥🔥
Speaking of fire, it was pretty hot towards the end of the week.
Sunday was the worst. It was more humid than hot and it was just
sticky and gross. We were out all day after church in the heat.
After awhile you get used it.
Well, we are teaching these brothers, Ruben and Enrique! We taught
them the whole Restoration and we told them how they can know that
Joseph Smith is a prophet by reading the Book of Mormon. They then got
quizzical looks and said: "Well, he is a prophet isn't he? I know
that he is!" They want to be baptized! We set a date for sept 10!
😄😎
We met a woman named Annareli. She was outside hanging out with her
family and she totally listened to us! She told us how she
wants to get closer to God and she knows that we have been sent to
help her achieve that goal! We gave her a Book of Mormon and she has
started to read it!
We met a man named Everet last week and this week we taught him the
Restoration! He thought it was all very interesting and we asked him
if he would be baptized. He said that he will think about it, but that
he wants to learn more!
We also had a lesson with Mike! We taught him part of the Plan of Salvation. Even
though he doesn't understand all that we teach him, the spirit hasn't
told us to drop him. We hope and pray that his family will come and
listen one day.
Moroni 7-
47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever;
and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well
with him.
48 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the
energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath
bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ;
that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall
be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this
hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure.
I learned today from studies that I want to try to develop charity. In
1 Corinthians 13, Paul also talks about how even if we give all we
have to the poor and not have charity, then we are nothing. Crazy
right? So I am going to develop charity this week to be able to be
clean, to feel the spirit and to love others!
