Well got to start pday off with a good Temple trip! We have Elder Ulisses Soares from the Quorum of the 12 coming to our mission this Friday! Way too excited! I went from having an all sisters district this transfer to all Elders. Which is way different.
Had an awesome baptism this last week for Danielle and Fay after receiving news they would get adopted! Spirit was present and same with the ward & family support!
Found a couple new people this week, hopefully we can get regular meetings started!
Got Byran back on date for baptism on the 15th after his life fell apart last Friday. The wedding and baptism got called off but he is still determined to keep going. Danielle(future wife) will continue to progress after she takes care of some things.
Got Leroy on date for this Saturday! He is a golden man who has done his searching and moved here to join the church! He is awesome!
We are working hard to meet our goals and help those we know about progress towards baptism! Life is crazy but good!
Alma 62:49-51
9 But notwithstanding their riches, or their strength, or their prosperity, they were not lifted up in the pride of their eyes; neither were they slow to remember the Lord their God; but they did humble themselves exceedingly before him.
50 Yea, they did remember how great things the Lord had done for them, that he had delivered them from death, and from bonds, and from prisons, and from all manner of afflictions, and he had delivered them out of the hands of their enemies.
51 And they did pray unto the Lord their God continually, insomuch that the Lord did bless them, according to his word, so that they did wax strong and prosper in the land.
Be humble. Rely upon the Lord. He can deliver you from all afflictions in this life and wants to! Give thanks and repeat!
Love y'all!
