Week 37
This week we received so much help from members. One member helped us get back in contact with a few youth we were teaching. During the past few weeks they have been studying and didn't have time for lessons, but with her by our side, we had 2 great lessons and have another scheduled for the coming week!
We also went looking for less active members this week and we went looking later at night one day. We were trying to figure out which house was the right one and I scared my comp and me as I talked about someone off to the side who was peaking out of a second story window like a scary movie. Well turns out that was the house of the member, so we were both a little freaked out to knock on that door... jaja it doesn't sound very scary but we were both a little freaked out.
We also had a great lesson with a family we found knocking doors. The wife has a great survivor story from COVID and each time we come back to visit them and share a message, she gladly accepts us into their house! We invited them to church and on Sunday, we sped walk to their house at 8:30am to make sure they were still coming, but at 8:45am they said they couldn't come because of a problem with their kids. So we sped walk back up the hill, stopped by a members house to say hello because it turns out she had a cold and then got to church at 9:02am. We have no idea how we traveled so fast on the way back, but it was a miracle or maybe not because I was assigned to give the talk that day.
On Sunday we were also inviting each class to help us with missionary work. And when we went to the primary the teacher had us share a little bit about a mission and how we can be doing missionary work right now. Well it was the cutest thing when after church one of the primary kids came up to us asking for something to share with her friend. She picked a photo of Christ. It's true that missionaries start young.
Mosiah 3:19 "For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father."
I love the attribute in this scripture "is willing submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit." The Lord really does know what is best for us. He knows what we can handle and knows what will prepare us. He knows us!
