Last Tuesday we had zone conference, It was great. I learned a lot. It was actually my very last zone conference for my mission, which was sad, but it was a good one. President Koster and Sister Koster said great things and I learned from the other training's. When we got home we only had time to teach one person, which was a good lesson.
On Wednesday we were able to teach a person we have been trying to teach for a long time. She was just always too busy. We taught the plan of salvation and it was great. She had so many good questions. I was so happy that she became less busy and we were able to teach her. We also had a person we are teaching, work with us. He is awesome. He is getting baptized this coming Saturday and he wants to come with us as we work. We then taught another person that is so interested, he is fire. I love teaching him because he has such sincere questions and is really seeking. We had a powerful lesson on the Book of Mormon. He is coming to love the Book of Mormon. I know that if we will all read it then our faith can be strengthened and we will know what we should do.
On Thursday we had district council in the morning and taught a person preparing for baptism in the afternoon. He is so fire. He is so ready to be baptized and is excited. We were able to find some new people to teach and help teach some less actives to help them come to church on Sunday.
On Friday the rain was coming down hard. A storm came through and the rain was heavy. We were walking and talked to this tatay and then the rain started pouring and he let us come in to hide and we ended up being able to teach him a short lesson. He was great. The Lord put us in the right place at the right time.
On Saturday was the baptism!!!! We had many people show up and it was a great service!! I am so happy for the person that was baptized. She has shown a lot of faith to be baptized and now her family is complete. They can prepare to be sealed next year in the temple. We were also able to teach some really cool people later that day. Their electricity went out and they only had candles. This guy is searching so hard for truth and the Book of Mormon has all the answers. The message of the Restoration is awesome. It just makes sense and can give hope to all of us.
On Sunday we saw miracles. We had people come to church that we didn't expect to come. They had an amazing experience. The Lord always provides, It was so great. We were able to teach other people and less actives. The area is progressing and great things are happening. I hope you all keep reading the Book of Mormon and have a great week.
