This week was a little slow. We had this list that we have been
working through to see if anyone is interested in us sharing our message
at their house. So far no one has really been enthusiastic about us
coming back, but we have found a few people that missionaries have
stopped by in the past and said we could come back. They just follow
that up with "I'm, [insert religion here]."
Anyway, we are excited for General Conference this Saturday and Sunday!! Most
of our investigators have said that they would watch it, they also said
that we could come and watch it with them so that we can explain things
that they don't understand. We has Marisa and Ryan come to church and
the first time was when we got a new Bishop on a fast Sunday then they
came this last week which was the Primary Program and the next week is
General Conference then we will be back at a fast Sunday again. They are
just not able to see how a regular Sacrament Meeting is like. Anyways
Ryan grew up with no real religious background so we are building up his
faith that there is a God. He has always believed that there was a
higher power but never really had something to hold on to. So we had a
great opportunity, to compare to the scriptures, like Ammon and King
Lamoni. He is always thinking and pondering what we say and then asks
questions. His wife, Marisa grew up Catholic but left when it seemed to
her to be all about the money. She has asked some of the deeper
questions like infant baptism and what a high priest is. They are
awesome!!
Josh is one of the other really
moving investigators. He has a baptismal date for the 10th of October.
We could really use your prayers to keep him on track. His mom is a
convert of about 2 years and his dad is a less active member. His sister
Grace just turned 8 and wants to be baptized and so we are teaching
both of them. It has been awesome to see the difference from those who
really haven't had a religious background to those that have been going
for the last 3 years and just never decided to be baptized.
Other than that not much else has happened.
