It's been such a great week and sad at the same
time. yes koffi got baptized! let me tell you a little about that haha!
so Saturday we had just gotten done teaching brenda and we get a phone
call from president saying that im getting transferred
so i was really sad about that... and i get another phone call from
koffi saying his mom changed her mind and he wont be getting baptized
anymore.. so i was really sad be this point!! and we were like in the
heart part of the area and we didn't know if we should
pray right there or not but was really didn't have any choice by then so
we just knelt down and prayed. so we biked very fast over to his house
and talked with his mom. and the only thing that could change her mind
we like was, if we brought the spirit in
the home. so we taught the Restoration. and she started crying it was
really wired. she said that she has been trying to avoid the church for
along time. so we had an amazing powerful lesson with her. she let him
get baptized and she said she will never miss
church again. and she came to his baptizim and church and she will be
coming again next week! and we are teaching her all the lesson again.
so i have been really sad about leaving my first area!!! I made
so many good friends with investigators and members. it was really sad
saying bye on Sunday! and i had a lot of tie exchanges with the
members and now im left with the ugliest ties
haha. but its okay! and i heard about mubareks thing! im so happy for
him. and i so thankful we have a sight to go visit. i love this church. a
lot people come to me ask me"show me evidence church is true" its
really sad. and the evidence is the book of Mormon.
its the keystone of our religion. but what i like tell people is that we
walk by faith and not by evidence. but if they really want one then i
give them a book of Mormon.
and i heard about the gay thing. i support the brethren. im sure the lord knows what he is doing. and tofiks talk was so wonderful.it
truly meant alot to me! i can tell that he is changing and becoming
the lord would have him be. seeing changes like that is what makes me
want to change myself. it makes stop and realize what im doing. the
atonement can change anyone thats wiling to use it. and i pray everyday
that my family will be blessed according to my
obedience. its a good motivator:)
my plan for thanks giving is to eat. haha jk i really don't know
haha. i hate transfers. brother wadsworth from my ward says that he
willing to come pick me up from my next area for thanks giving but i
doubt my mission president will allow that. but
im exited for my next area. and i will get to come back next week for
antonio and brenda's baptizim.
anyways i had a good week! thank you so much for your
loving advice. you guys mean the world to me! i love you guys! thank you
for your support! i hope you guys have a great week!
