This week has been so cool! No crazy off the wall miracles but just all the poeple we've been meeting and the lessons we've been teaching and the people that are progressing! Some good lessons we taught and just some fun stuff happening! We found some new investigators this week and we have a pretty solid teaching river of 15 people right now. We have so many doing so well. I'm so grateful to be here!
Rachelle is getting baptized today so we are way pumped about that! She is so awesome!!!!
We had a cool event on Thursday night with President and Sister Mansell there. We had President come and answer questions that people had asked or did ask that night. It was way cool. The turn out was not nearly as great as we were hoping for, but it was still really good, we had some nonmembers come and listen to President.
This week has just been fun! We were in a trio for a bit because of one of our missionaries in the zone was going home. That was fun because we split the area like crazy with members and just met tons of people and taught a lot too.
The greatest lesson I've been learning recently is the importance of just having faith. Just believing. We come across lots of things in life that are hard and that puts us out of our comfort zone. I experience that a ton as a missionary haha. Sometimes things are put into our paths that are just overwhelming and we try and search for ways to get around it. But I think Christ puts it the best in Mark. He says to Be not Afraid, only Believe. In another instance he tells us that all things are possible to him that believes. Hebrews 11 and Ether 12 speak of those who have gone through sore trials and hard things, and how did they do all these things? Through merely believing. Beliveing that they could because of their belief in a Savior who could help them. Because of their belief in a Father in Heaven who believes in them. And it really can be that simple. Just believe and cast all doubts aside.
Love you all!
