This week was a good one. We had some cool miracles happen and really felt the spirit. This week, we had some conference which is always a spirit filled meeting. The focus was on using all the tools we have been given. We also talked about being organized and doing everything with order. The Lord works in order and that is how his church is organized so as we show the Lord we care by taking care of the tools he gave us we are blessed. It was also stake conference which was another meeting filled with the spirit. The stake President talked about the Lord's work being hastened. The Lord is ready to give us personal revelation but we are what can hold that back. We need to put in the work to see the miracles and guidance we need. He challenged everyone to attend the temple, have the Missionaries in your home, and read out of The Book of Mormon in the next 6 months. As we do these things we are opening our hearts to Receive revelation and spiritual guidance.
Some awesome things that happened this past week are:
1. We found 4 awesome new people to teach
We had a great week of finding new people. We tried by some potentials that were further away trying to clean area book up and be organized. In doing so, we were able to find 4 awesome people.
2. I played some kids in basketball
When we were knocking in a area, there were some kids. One of them was wearing some Stephen Curry basketball shoes and so I asked if he liked basketball. He told me he did and he was better than Curry. I asked him to show me how good he was and then after a few shots, recited to humble the kids. Haha or just play them in a short game. We played to 3 and I won but we had a good time. I'll send a video or two of us playing. It really made the kids interested in what we do and they wanted us to come back and share more about Christ.
3. A 7 year old kid was spreading the word
So we were working in an apartment complex and there was a little kid that asked who we are and so we told him that we shared a message about Christ. We offered to give him a pass along card and his friend wanted one too. We gave them one and started on to the next house. The kid zooms around the corner on his scooter and asked us for 4 more cards because some more of his friends want them. We give him the cards and he goes on his way. We are talking to a lady and the kid comes up to us again. He asked for more cards! We give him 20 cards and then he presumes to scoot over to the neighbors house and knock on his door and start talking to him and give him a card. Then he says, on to the next one and goes to the next house. Haha it was super funny. Me and Elder Adair were like we should probably go before people think we put him up to it. Kids are awesome! Haha
4. A members kid got baptized
One of the members kids got baptized. The service was awesome and he had a lot of support. Bradley (the one getting baptized) knows a lot about the Gospel. It wax funny when the lady was giving a talk on the Holy Ghost. He was answering all of her questions before she even finished asking. He is an awesome new member!
Well, I hope you all have an inspiring spirit filled week. Continue to read the scriptures, participate in missionary opportunities and make the temple your goal. I know as you do you will learn and grow spiritually so much. You all are awesome! Love ya a million!
