Cool Lessons = Cool Week

Hola amigos!

We had some cool lessons this week!  Not all 22 went through but the ones that did were pretty awesome!

On Tuesday we got in  contact with a less active who had been baptized about 2 years ago. We have been trying to contact her for the past 12 weeks but haven't been able to. But we finally set up an appointment and it went really well. She has a strong testimony and she wants to come back to church she just needs the support. Then we went back on Thursday and we read in 3 Nefi 11  with her and she started to cry and she told us about this dream that she had in high school that was similar to what happened in the chapter. So that was amazing.

Then we had a lesson with Zulma!!  (less active lady who randomly called us!) She read to chapter 17 of 1 Nefi and she said her husband downloaded the app and started reading as well. So we waited for him to get home and invited him to sit down with us. We taught the whole restoration and he explained that he has been away from God for a while but wants to start building a relationship with him. We went back a couple of days later and started teaching the plan of salvation and we asked him if he would be baptized if he knew these things were true and he said yes without hesitation. So that was pretty cool. We invited them to church and Zulma wanted to come but Robinson wasn't so sure. But they came to sacrament meeting and loved it! We are going back again this week. Zulma told us how she has changed since she has started reading the Book of Mormon and having contact with missionaries and her husband has noticed the change. Its incredible and it has really helped me have a stronger testimony of the Book of Mormon and this gospel. it really does change people.

We had a lesson last night with Mary and her family! We talked to them a little bit about faith and told them about general conference and we are going to start meeting with them weekly. Her husband is not a member and neither are her two daughters but they all agreed to read in the Book of Mormon :)

On Wednesday we had transfers and my new companion is Hermana Bray. She is from California but lived in Utah and actually attended Granger high school for a little bit.

I know that Heavenly Father is guiding this work and guiding our lives. I am so excited for general conference and to hear from a living prophet. Its such a blessing to have a prophet and to have the chance to receive revelation through his words! I hope you all can watch it :)

Have a great week!
