March 18, 2013

Hey,

So this week was pretty good. We taught a lot and some good things are happening. We have a companionship that has been struggling so we went down to their area to work with them and do exchanges. It was a good experience, we broke up and went with the goal of finding their weak points and helping them to overcome them. We had really good exchanges and were able to find a lot of potential investigators. Hopefully they will be able to start teaching more and have some success.

We also went down to Paris for a meeting with Elder Richards who is a member of the Seventy. It was a good meeting, he talked to us about the difference between baptizing and building the Kingdom of God. It was super powerful and Elder Nielson and I are excited to share his message with all of the missionaries in our zone.

This week we are going back to Paris for a zone conference with him and so that will be good. It really is awesome how many opportunities we have as missionaries to meet with the church leaders.
Last Saturday we were in a rendez-vous and we invited our ami to come to church the next day. He told us that he had lost his car keys and had no way to get to church. He had searched for the key for a few hours before giving up. We asked if we could pray and then help him look for it. He offered a super powerful prayer and then we looked and about 5 minutes later found it. I realized that for most of us that is something very little because we have been doing that all of our lives, but for him it was a huge testimony builder. It was cool.

Well this week we have a busy week planned so hopefully everything happens. Hope you all are doing great.

Elder Lerdahl
