What a crazy flippin week!
I have never been so exhausted my whole mission. ha ha i love being this tired and i hope im this tired the rest of my mission. we have seen some of the greatest success this week. To start off monday he had a good day, we saw a couple less actives and got a couple of new investigators. So on wednesday we had Zone conference where we raised a Title Of Liberty in honor of our Family, Friends, our God, and our Freedom as missionaries. I like to call it the Standard of Obedience. We came up with our own title of liberty just like Moroni. It was really intense but the Holy Spirit of Promise was there and witnessed to all that what was said needed to be said. We had the best numbers in the History of the mission this week.. Our mission Baptized 7, set 46 baptism dates, had 800 new investigators, taught 1461 lessons, 172 people at church, it was such a busy week and it was so much fun. We set a baptism date with Jenifer Gardner. She is such a sweet lady, she has 2 daughters Courtney and Karley, and we taught her about the Atonemnt of Her Savior, and she just started to cry, she has been going through a rough spell with life and she just needed to hear the message. She said she is slowly losing her faith in God but we are gonna do everything in the Spirit to help her find that faith once again. We had 21 total lessons, 17 new investigators, and we had 8 people come to church with us on Sunday. trust me when i say that me and Elder Rigby had nothing to do with it. The Lord is so merciful and so loving! We are gonna go down south on Friday and hopefully set 4 more baptism dates. Thats gonna be so fun. Oh and we had a little righteous competition to help us get moving and me and elder Rigby beat out 9 companionships(even the Zone Leaders) and now they are gonna come cook us breakfast. ha ha im so excited for it. other than that, this week has been alright. So i was reading in Alma 60:24 and i found a really funny southern phrase. "begin to be up and doing" and then in alma 33:25 he quotes, "ye all of you" which down here translates to "ya'll..." ha ha i think that part of the book of mormon came from down here in the good ol' south! ha ha i hope ya'll had a good safe week. and just know that i am as happy as can be!! oh and bytheway ronald mundy has expressed to stay Baptist til he dies! so thats not gonna go down. I love y'all with all my heart and i wish Gods blessings to be showered upon you!
One Love
