Hmmm... I don't even know where to start. It's been a busy week! We found 5 new investigators this week. We have 5 investigators on date for baptism. And 3 investigators came to church. So this week has been awesome!
We were sitting in church waiting to see if our investigators would come and it was now 11:03 and sacrament had started so you know us missionaries were worrying. But, then Gracie and her whole family walked in and sat with us. Literally my mood went a whole 180. I was so happy they all came! Gracie is still on date for September 2nd and her family is becoming active again so it's been so amazing to teach them all:)
We taught the James kids (CJ, AJ, and TJ) and they finally accepted a date to be baptized for September 16th. We taught them the word of wisdom while they all were drinking tea right in front of us and at first they said "there is no way We will give up tea" but by the end of the lesson they said that this would be their last cup of tea. Miracles. We just got to get them to church... which they were planning to come this Sunday but then last minute flaked, so that was a bummer...
Sister Vea and I are doing great. Each day something amazing happens and I love seeing the miracles God blesses us with. Like we met this catholic lady and she told us she wasn't interested, but as we taught her the restoration on her door step and sister Vea shared her conversion story (she grew up catholic) the lady asked us to come back and teach her whole family!!! Miraclessss.
Well that's all I can remember from this week. Missionary work is so fun. I just love each and everyday. In sacrament a return missionary that went to Arizona spoke about how he complained a lot at the beginning of his mission but then his companion asked him a question that changed his life, he said "who do you love more? Yourself or the Lord?" He said it changed his whole mission. I think we can ask that question to ourselves in everything we do. As we do that it will keep us on the path that leads to Heavenly Father.
Okay well love you all and hope your week goes great, apparently there's a solar eclipse today so that's new!
