Hello EVERYONE!!!!!...
Ok first off...
Yes i recieve your packages on the same day....yes the donuts were still good thank you :)
Ok in my study reading.. i am reading in Ether right now....i have read everything up to that...so i will have it finished before i leave for italy, very interesting!
Ok so each week usually twice a week during class you and your companion go and teach an "investigator" (My teacher sorella smith) and start with knocking on the door intro...Like week 3 my companion and I got dropped by our investigator .. the next week we got a new one and we started up again.... about a week into teaching her we got "transfered" so everyones investigator got switched with some one else in the room... We got a new investigator YAY!!! (still sorellla smith she just acts like a different person to every missionary group, yes this is all in italian! i have also blessed the sacrament in ITALIAN!! sorry....anyways) ok.. Our last lesson we went on splits so i didnt get to teach my investigator...but my compaion and anziano lacey taught her about the gospel of jesus christ and ended a little bit on baptism and she didnt want to get baptized. next lesson im back in... I go in and talk with her (all in italian) answer all the questions she has about the holy ghost about baptism about it all....i asked her why she didnt want to get baptized..she said her family isnt interested in this church and wouldnt approve of her joining. so I bore my testimony saying that god will bless you and your family for making this decision and you will become an example for your family! bam! She still wasnt convinecd so i had her open up to 2 nephi chapter 32 or 33 dont remember verse 13 asked her to read it...she did....asked about her thoughts...and she still wasnt convinced...i had her read verse 21 which talks about the only way to make it into the kingdom of heaven is through baptism. i then asked her do you want to live with god? she said yes. then i invited her to get baptized.....And she started crying...well she was already crying before...alot happened in between but thats the simple version of it....and she said yes with tears in her eyes...( i taught the entire lesson by the spirit..if you would have seen any other lessons i teach im more of an observer...but i taught it all and got her to feel the sprirt so strongly (I got our Teacher To CRY!) she kept trying to shake it off during the lesson but she couldnt...she canceled the "appointment" with the missionaries that were suppose to go after us cause she couldnt do it any longer.. she needed a break...
ok hope you understand that....prolly shoulda told you about the progressing investigator thing like week 2 but i just didnt think anything of it....
Ok
