Tuesday was an awesome day!
We had a lesson with a young man with the elders, he is in his
20s. We meet him last week with our lesson with his friend. We set a Baptism
date with him for next month. We also established the role of missionaries very
well. He expects us to teach him and guide him. (On the way to lunch he asked
us to teach him while we were going and asked if we should start with a prayer
before eating) He does not believe in God right now, but if it was true he
would like to be Baptized. The elders are now teaching him.
After lunch we did some weeding for member. Then rushed to our
next lesson appointment. Not there, so we ate the ice cream we bought to share
with her. Then I said, lets find someone to teach. We did. We are scheduled to
meet with her this week.
After talking to her we rushed to another appointment. Taught
him with the elders. The spirit was so strong. He read to 1Nephi 13 from last
week when we first met him and wants to know if there is a God.
Then we were a little late to a family Home activity with a
member family. He loved our lesson on how to strengthen our family bonds. He
said from now on, as a family he would pray and read the scriptures everyday. I
explained that I knew it could be hard to find the time in which everyone is
together and shared the example of how our family used to wake up to pray
together and have scripture study and then go back to bed when dad went to work!
Then my companion and I raced home. (I love riding my bike as fast as possible
at night J)
