This week was pretty crazy we had a lot of miracles happen and so it was a great week.
About
4 months ago I contacted a lady on the road who gave us her number. We
had been trying to fix an appointment with her but we could never find a
time that worked. Finally this week we were able to see her and it was
an awesome rendezvous. She was so excited to read the Book of Mormon and
is really someone who has been prepared to accept the gospel. We are
gonna go back and see her this week and I am excited to see how she
likes the Book of Mormon.
Friday I went to Nancy for an exchange with the Zone leaders. It
was nice to get out of Luxembourg for a day and to work with a
missionary that I didn't really know. It was a lot of fun and we were
able to get some new contacts. We also met a Muslim guy who is going to
go buy us Korans. I am super excited for that, I think he was trying to
convert us but I am okay with it because I will get a free Koran. We are
also going to go give him a Book of Mormon so that will be good. After
talking with him I thought a lot about the fact that every religion has
bits of the truth. What I realized the most though was how much ours
really makes sense.
Sunday was a crazy day. We had so many miracles. We
were at church and a less active that we have been working with a lot
came up to us and told us that his son wants to be baptized and so we
are going over there tomorrow to teach his son and prepare him for
baptism.
Then the bishop pulled us into his office and there was an old
investigator who showed up out of nowhere who wants to be baptized. He
couldn't before because of his family but now is able to and is pretty
much ready. We met with him today and set up a baptism date for this
weekend which is super fast but he is ready and the ward already knows
him so its definitely a miracle.
After all that we were pretty blown away and then it just got even
better. A member came and told us that while he was at the church a few
days before that a man walked into the building and started asking him
how he could find the missionaries. The member took his number to give
to us and gave him a Book of Mormon.
It is crazy that after a transfer that has been
pretty dead that we have three crazy things happen. It really got us
excited and I am really looking forward to this week it is going to be
great.
Transfers are this Saturday and I have no idea what's
going to happen. Normally I can feel whether I am staying or going but
this time I have no idea. I guess we will see how it goes. One thing is
sure and that is that me or my comp is leaving, which is good. three
months is too long with the same person no matter how wonderful they
are. I don't get how all you crazy married people do it haha!!
Well hope you all have a great week.
