works hard with us to do missionary work and man things go so well when you have someone that works just as hard as us to get the missionary effort going.
Other than that I went on two exchanges this week. I went down Monday night to Columbia and we had a great day Tuesday with Elder Persons! It was just raining all day and it was a bit cold. We rode around on bikes and tracted and found some people. We met a pretty cool blind guy. Elder Persons is a really good hard working missionary. Then right when I go back in Tuesday night we had more exchanges on
Wednesday. I had Elder Lytle for the morning tracting and then had the trio of elder Lytle and his trainee Elder Grover, by the way they are from Linden. We saw this awesome truck! Then I was with Elder Grover the rest of the night. I want to train so bad again! Things just happen
with new missionaries. We taught our baptismal date and the spirit was so strong! One of our members bore his testimony on the Book of Mormon and how he got it. Then another member bore his testimony on priesthood blessings. Tears were shed.
We also got to teach this new family that we found. They are a young couple who are not married but super open to the gospel. They both
grew up catholic and when we got done teaching about the apostasy. He said it made sense! I have never heard a catholic say that. We gave them the Book of Mormon and invited them to church. They were going to come but got sick. :( We did, however; get two investigators to sacrament and that was awesome! The lessons were perfect for both of them. Revelation through church attendance is a real thing. Oh and we had a good Zone conference this week. We won the golden plates (cleanest car)! We did something no other missionaries have done. We rode up on a trailer! Man when we hit the parking lot everyone stopped and stared with mouths open..... ha!
Last part of the week we taught a mission preparation class with President Stone. He is our mission president and as always, it was super spiritual. We discussed for an hour about the why to come on a mission. Whatever gets you on a mission is good especially if it is based on the Savior. He said if you read the Book of Mormon then you will want to repent and you will have a desire to serve. I can tell you that is so true! You will find things that are not in line with what the Lord wants and you will change.
That is about it. Love y'all! Have a blessed week!
