So this week has been one of the most amazing so far. We had 3 of the U. family set for baptism and we were having trouble with thier 11 year old son. We taught him at his friends house and set him for baptism!!! on the 14th we will baptize the 4 of them! I'm SO excited!
Even more excited, I can't wait to challenge them to go to the temple in a year. I hope they do and that I can accompany them!
We have also had some great opportunities to do service for some of the members. In the past two weeks I have seen the power of the Priesthood and the impact of our calling. I love the support that we have from our Heavenly Father.
We also had a really great experience with a member family. Green Valley is a pretty rich place and so members really are key to the missionary work. We prayed about some families and went to see one of them. We had a special lesson about sharing the gospel and invited them to have a person in their home to teach. The father (who is the head of the Las Vegas Swat team and one of the top five tactic leaders in the nation) said, "We have been really slacking on our member missionary opportunites. As we have talked, a few names have come to mind and we will have them here for a lesosn." I was like, OH WOW! That built my testimony!
I love serving, and the experiences I am having are ones that will be eternal. I cannot wait to have more experiences and I love writing them (I just wish I had more time to write... oh well.)
Thanks for your support, I love you all.
