I truly love being a
missionary and the opportunity I have to testify of Jesus Christ everyday! That
family we were helping move, one day the mom’s friend and friends sister were
over, we were able to schedule an appointment with them. We went and taught them
this last week and they understood everything so well! They had great
questions! We were able to invite them to be baptized in October and they said
yes! Their names are Terri & Lindsay, both sisters w/ 1 child each who live
together. After the invitation Lindsay asked if we baptized infants in our
church. (she has a 4 month old daughter) We we’re able to use the Book of
Mormon to answer her question that we do not baptize infants in Jesus Christ’s
church and the reason for it. I love the Book of Mormon so much! I know it has
the power to change lives and comfort us.
So remember how I said
I fasted for 2 things w/ Rebecca a while ago & then her boyfriend left her.
Well, we met w/ Rebecca yesterday and she said she wants to move her baptismal
date forward to October! The Lord hears our prays & the power of fast is
real! So we have her baptism scheduled for Oct. 13th at the moment!

We’ve been doing a lot
of finding this week, mostly through campus contacting which is a ton of fun!
We’re focusing a lot on personally getting to know people and the miracles from
it are real. Usually we talk w/ people and then they’re the ones who actually
start asking about us and what we’re doing. Great quote that goes along with
this “People don’t care what you have to say, until they know how much you
care.” Genuinely taking interest in people & their lives is a Major Key!
Couple cool stories,
we were leaving a members apartment and there was a guy about to go into the
one next to them, we were pretty far away and it was dark, so I hollered at him
and we started talking. He said he was Christian and I was like “Great us too!”
And started walking over to him and after I said that he goes, “Oh cool, I
thought you were those Mormon guys.” Hahahaha! So I went in to tell him how
we’re The Church of Jesus Christ and we believe in Christ. We continued talking
and are meeting with him tomorrow and he’s really interested! His name is Coi
Bennett and his cousin is gonna sit in with us as well.
The other is that we taught
a Member last week and invited them to pray for a missionary opportunity that
week, act upon it, then invite that person to come closer to Christ. We got a
text from that member later in the week telling us he was able to teach the
Restoration of the gospel to his coworker and invited him to meet with us and
he said yes and was really excited & now we’re meeting with him tonight!! I
love working w/ members it’s so great and miracles come from it!
I love my calling and am so grateful for this
opportunity I have to serve our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Much Love y’all! 🤟
