This week went really well as far as investigators, but we had to put in the work, its about 110 degrees right now and let me tell ya walking all day in 110 can be tricky but we get it done!
One lesson that I want to share was with one of our best investigators -
Hma F. is the woman whose husband kicked us out of the
house, but she wouldn't give up so is taking lessons from us in a members
house. This week we were teaching her about the Book of Mormon and she
says she has been studying and searching for a long time to find the
truth. Elder Salazar asked, "So do you think that our faith is correct?",
but before he could even finish she said, "ITS CORRECT." There was no doubt
in her voice. It honestly gave me chills. Her testimony is already so
strong. She started crying. She has two daughters that are also
investigating the LDS church and all 3 have a date for baptism next
month. And it turns out the guy that kicked us out is her boyfriend and
she made him move out, so we can teach her in her house again!
Elders - 1 Angry Anti Mormon - 0
There are three things that were told to us that will strengthen families, non members, less actives, and members alike.
1 Family Prayer
2 Family Scripture study with a hymn and focus especially on the Book of Mormon
3 Family home evening with every member of the family who lives in the house
Anyway yeah this week
was good. We had 8 investigators show up to church this week! Freaking 8
man! it was so awesome. We share our ward with two other elders and
they brought another 5. Our gospel principles class was PACKED with
investigators! Gomez Palacio might be a dusty town, but dang these
people are feeling the spirit!
Overall yes life is good.
