Week 10

Wow, another week went by so fast! It was a good week,

On Tuesday, we went and taught some members, and basically just went around sharing some messages and contacting.  It’s hard, but going well. We had the district meeting, which was good, and had to do some training as well. This training was for our fathers as well as us, and the focus was on companionship study, so we came up with ideas to improve our comp study, such as to say a prayer in the beginning, in the middle, and at the end of the study, and to use the Preach My Gospel manual more.

On Wednesday, we taught our investigators, and we taught them about faith, and that they need to have some faith, or at least try to exercise faith. They had also read the Family A Proclamation To The World, and they are apparently starting to become a lot more open to the idea of getting married, which is pretty awesome.

On Thursday, we went and tried to get some referrals taken care of, but could not get a hold of any. One we went with a member and went to the house at 9 in the morning, and nothing, the guy said that she was supposed to be home all day, but apparently not, and that we should try again. Later, we went to another member’s house to go through the references, but he was not there. So we ended up going back to the first house, the one at 9 am, and still nothing. So we then went to a recent converts house and shared a message.  It was pretty awesome, felt the spirit. then we went and taught one of the members nieces, as she is going to be baptized in a few weeks, and needs the lessons, as she does not quite know all the stuff about the church, but she goes to primary and all that, so that is going well.

On Friday, we went and taught a less active a lesson, basically shared a message with her, and invited her to come to church, she said she would, and she did! During the prayers and hymns she was crying and had cloth over her face. Anyway, also on Friday, we taught our investigators again, and it was pretty powerful. I shared that we need to pray with a faith that we are going to receive an answer, and that we should pray with our families, the dad seemed really touched, and I know that he felt the spirit. On Saturday, it was mainly with less actives, inviting them to come to church. On Sunday, we had church, and then had to go teach another little girl who will have her 8th birthday in a few weeks.

Overall a pretty good week!
