His work his way

This week was very awesome! I had some awesome exchanges with Elders Klaassen and Savaii. With Elder Klaassen, we met so many people and had many mini-lessons. It was so cool to see the spirit work with them as we focused on Christ and how we can build our faith in him. Many of the lessons we had this week were set that day.  With Elder Savaii, we noticed there was a carnival so we created a survey of 6 questions and that evening went to the adjacent corner and while people were waiting we got people to volunteer to do them. In just over an hour we had 27 people volunteer.  Of those 27, 19 gave information to learn more. We have since contacted and set appointments for quite a few! So many miracles this week! 


Dell, one of our investigators, got baptized this week. He bore his testimony at it as well! The spirit was so strong. A cool part was, our recent convert, Lillian, gave one of the talks... And wow! It was AMAZING! The spirit was so strong and it was such a joy to hear! Dell bore his testimony the next day at church as well. It is so cool to see people change through the gospel of Jesus Christ. And that was his testimony, how he has changed so much and changed for the good. 


We had lots of preparing and preparation for our training this week. It was so cool to see how when our true desire is to do the Lord's work, in his way, that he will guide and direct us into doing just that. When we join the Lord's team we join a team that will never lose. I am grateful to serve and know my Savior, Jesus Christ. I will forever be indebted to him.


This week I would challenge everyone to seek opportunities, then serve someone every single day. "When ye are in the service of your fellow beings, ye are only in the service of your God" Let's choose today to serve God the rest of our lives and serve those around us each and every day. I hope you all have a fantastic week! Enjoy life no matter what's going on. Live every day with a smile!
