This week we had a bummer day so we decided to go see our friend James (he is a less active member). He believes in some neat things! For example, there are 54 Alien races that we know of. We have had contact
with 15 of them and the world has alliances with 7 of them and 3 or 4 live among us. So as we talk with him we mostly dig into this stuff and get all the information we can to lighten our day to continue to work hard! Also, he gives us Pepsi.😜
We were able to meet so many people that are ready to receive the gospel. For example, we met this man named Dorian. He loved the message of the Restoration and wanted peace and comfort in his life, but we
haven't been able to meet with him in a few weeks due to IDK, here's the best part - we called him and were talking with him and he wanted to meet with us pretty bad so you know what we did? We set a baptismal date over the phone and he is so excited!! We love baptism!!🙏
We also met this kid named Wesley and he explained that he has had a tough past. Four exorcisms, sold his soul to you know who for money and a rap career. Anyways, he has come a long ways but he found Christ! And now he's changing his life. We got talking with him and he wanted us to help his wife see the bright side so he let us in his home and we taught them about the love and peace will come as they accept Christ into their lives!!!
They loved it and both want to be baptized on 12/26!!
We had a zone conference about the sacrament and one thing I would like to share is something that was shared. In the bible, when Jesus is suffering for all of ours sins, he comes back to his apostles and noticed them sleeping and said you couldn't even wait one hour. And they compared that to us when we choose different things over coming to church and partaking of the Sacrament what really is more important??? I know the true power of sacrament and forgiveness! I love it!!!
After zone conference we went to a big gym, like summit Athletic club, and got to feed close to 700 people both homeless and just someone looking for a good bite to eat!! It was great to get into that spirit of Thanksgiving!!!
I love you all I am grateful for all the love I get from you all! Make sure to share some cookies this holiday season!
Love you All!
