Last Tuesday we had zone conference. It was so great. Learned a lot and felt the Spirit. President and Sister Koster are so awesome and are definitely called of God. They are so inspiring. After the conference we felt really pumped to use the Book of Mormon and so we used it immediately in our first appointment. It was so powerful. The verse brought the Spirit and taught with power.
On Wednesday I had exchanges with another elder, It was so great. I learned a lot. There are so many great missionaries here in this mission. This truly is the best mission ever. We were able to find part members and less actives that have potential. Also we were riding a jeep on a 2 lane road. All of a sudden it died. So me and my companion got off with 2 others and started pushing. We push started it and kept going. The best part was that because we stopped, there was no more traffic in front of us. Haha.
On Thursday we were able to find some new investigators and receive referrals. Member referrals are so powerful and have way better results. We are also starting to teach a great family. This family is so awesome and nice and we really feel excited for them as they read the Book of Mormon and learn about the Gospel.
On Friday we had some great lessons. We have a new investigator that is so smart. This investigator came from a return appointment that didn't work out. The person we were supposed to see wasn't there but this person came out and is awesome. Just proves that its not rejection, its redirection. Then we were able to teach one of our most progressing investigators. Its cool to see her change. She is happier as she learns about the gospel and reads the Book of Mormon.
On Friday we had a very busy day and a great day!!! We were able to help in a stake missionary devotional and do a proselyting activity with the youth. It was a great success. Then, after the activity we had a baptism!!!!!!!!!! It was amazing. The person baptized is awesome. We all can see his change. So grateful that we were able to see him be baptized into this church. We were able to have many people attend and it was great. There was an Easter activity where other churches were invited to sing. It was great and we were able to meet many new people. Such a great day.
Sunday was great too. We had the confirmation and great classes. We were able to find some new people to teach and meet some less actives. So great to see people coming back to church. We had a fire lesson with an investigator as he read the Book of Mormon. If we have any problems or questions we just need to read that book and pray and God will help us.
This has been a great week. The Lord always provides. I hope you all have a great week.
Elder Snyder
