Week 57 - Elder Lowe is on a high

We had a really cool experience with Lisa Montgomery this week.  Long story short.  Lisa was going through major depression and no one would reach out to her and help.  God sent her PSR worker to get her to the hospital.  Lisa called us for help and we went.  The first Day she was spiritually and emotionally weak. She was constantly saying that nobody cared about her and that her son hated her.  She said that she felt helpless, Hopeless, afraid.  We taught her about Jesus and the Atonement and how those things are very important and can apply in our life.  We comforted her and reassured her that God and people Love her.  We told her that she can be changed by the Atonement just like a caterpillar into a butterfly. We left not knowing the impact of our words until two days later.  The next time we saw her she was HAPPY and trying to serve others that were depressed.  She was excited to see us and told us that we had saved her life.  She told us that someone told her that she was glowing.  This is why we serve missions to change people's lives by helping them come unto Christ. 

We had another Great Lesson with Veronica.  We taught the Plan of Salvation and she understood and believed it.  I asked her to be baptized and she said yes!!!  The next time we go over and teach about the gospel of Jesus Christ we will set a specific day.  It is always reassuring to ask God if you should ask them to be Baptized and he lets you know by the spirit Yes and you ask them and they say yes.  

Gladys called me Last night :).  She told me that she had started the Temple Prep class and that she is going to the Temple late August.  She Invited Elder Bodine and I to her Endowment, I am so excited to go.
