Amazing week full of missionary work, stretching from practicing musical numbers, finding new investigators, delivering mail and doing all those things missionaries do!
Incredible workweek, we had 5
non members at church this week, 8 return appointments for this week and
super solid investigators to go along with it. It's nice we have been
able to teach a lot recently and its awesome how far my teaching
abilities have come. We have had really spirit packed lessons this last
week. One with this guy Named Lupanda who is from the Congo, Justin
Langly who is a college student at DU and Kirkland who happens to be
Jewish so Jesus Christ is a difficult one for him to understand but we
have been explaining it really well to him and he has been coming
around. We are going to start teaching Mahdeen....he is the refugee from
South Sudan and loved the church out there and wants to learn more
about Christ. We will be teaching him twice a week. We got back in
contact with the Navajo family Tina and her kids. Right now the grandma
is super interested. She came to church and wants to be baptized. We gave her a BOM and will be meeting with her this Saturday! I'm really
excited to see how that goes!!We will be teaching a ton others this week
and I will keep you posted on how those lessons go.
We had the Why I Believe fireside again which was super awesome!!! I
composed a song called Peace in Christ. First song I have ever arranged
but composed. I wrote out parts for the violin and cello and added
another vocal part by adding a harmony on the Chorus. It came together
really nice I wish you could have heard it. I'm happy with where my
voice is at. I have definitely been improving over the last 2 years its
been awesome.
Our zone has had some crazy
things happen. A new elder that has only been out a transfer has had
such awful health problems president has decided to send him home to get
better. They called us and asked to give the Elder a blessing. I had
the opportunity to give him a blessing and the words just came to me. I
didn't think of them prehand but just had confidence the Lord would give
me the words to say and it did. People share stories about giving
blessings and how the spirit completely takes over and I felt that
happen as I started to open my mouth. It was definitely one to
remember. I even felt in the blessing for some reason that he was going
to go home early and he got a call a day later not even expecting it to
happen. We are getting a super awesome missionary in our zone and I'm
excited because he plays and sing the guitar super well so we should be
playing some music together!!
MLC this week was good. we recieved
training for our smart phones and I will be getting a loaner phone for
now. It's incredible the things we can do.
