This transfer is awesome! the Lord is
definitly on our side and he is blessing us and we are seeing so many tender
mercies and miracles! I love this mission! The language is coming along so
great! So a little about our Amis(investigators)! This guy who contacted us on
the street is super cool and nice and he said that one day he washed his hands
before grabbing the book of mormon that we gave him to read, he started reading
it and said he felt something strong...That is was from God! We havn't been
able to see him for a few days!
So about Ali the tongan guy...he continues to
amaze me! we havnt been able to teach him for about two weeks, but then on
sunday, his wife called us and told us to come over, and it was a last minute
thing so my companion and I had to book it to the bus! We had a bomb dinner
with them! Since she told us in short notice, we didnt know what we were
going to teach! I was sooo nervous because his last question was 'how is Jospeh
Smith a prophet if he had more than one wife and God said not to'! so i was
nervous, I didnt know the answer to it but my comp and i tallked about it and
came up with a plan to share Matthew 7: 15-20! and so we taugh him! i took up
the courage to lead it and the first thing i asked him was if he read and then
prayed...he said he always prays..but that he didnt pray about Joseph Smith and
the Book of Mormon. But i told him he needed to do that, that that is the only
way he ewill find out. but then i told him we have the answer to his question!
we read the scripture, testified with all our heart, and then promised him that
he will find out if he prays and asks our Heavenly Father. and then he says,
Okay i will pray, and you can come back next week and i will tell you how it
goes! it was amazing to see that he comitted his ownself to pray! it was a
miracle to see this action that he is taking! and then we got ready to leave and
he aent to turn the car on so i got a chance to talk to his wife, and since i
love this family and im really close to them, i straight up asked her when she
was coming back to church, she said that she will one of these days, and im glad
she atleast said she was going to come! her husband is amazing! i can see him as
a bishop! its awesome! but yeah we are seeing great things! i feel like last
transfer, despite how crappy it was, got us prepared for this transfer! im
excited! I hope you all are great and that the lord is blessing you as well!
pray and the lord will bless you with his love! have a great week!
