this week we had a Miracle!!!
BATISMOOOOO!!!!!!!
on Tuesday i was doing a split with an elder in another
area, and during companion study he got a call from a guy that was wondering
where the chapel is located. he expressed his desire to go to church here
because he had moved recently from another state where he was going every
week.
we discovered that he is living now in the area where i´m
serving with elder P, so we called him later to find out more details.
turned out that he has been going to church for 4 years but couldn´t be
baptized because he was living with his girlfriend and was not married.
he split up with her and moved here and wanted to fufill he
dream of being baptized in the Church of Jesus Christ!!!!!
we didnt even have to teach him anything! he already
knew everything! was baptized on saturday and confirmed on sunday
it really goes to show how all that we do as missionaries
really isn't about how smart or how well we have memorized the scriptures, its
all about finding the Elect that God has put in your path. in 4 months i worked
really hard with Elder S, but didnt baptize anyone. and in this last
week God just sends someone out of nowhere. thats why you cant really measure
your success by how many Baptisms you have, but by how much you feel the Spirit
in your day-to-day proselyting and how much you try.
I love you all! we have a a couple that is progressing but
is a little scared of the baptismal commitment. pray for them.
