So, AMAZING news this week that I can't help but share right away. After about 2 months, we finally have a new investigator. We are so excited!! We have been praying and did a fast for this to start happening and it has. The work is going to pick up, we know it!!!
This week we had some exciting things happen!!
Zone Conference was this week and that is ALWAYS an amazing experience. This was the first one I did not sing at. Currently I am at 2 for 3. It was Sister Wong's first one in America so that was really awesome too. A little miracle here. At zone conference we actually were committed to handing out a Book of Mormon that night and to invite the person we invited to be baptized. We were not able to do the second half, but we were able to accomplish the first half!! The miracle part? We had about 10 minutes to do it. The rest of our day was full and that was the only time we had for it. We prayed and started walking on a trail and found 2 girls we were able to give Book of Mormons too. It was incredible!!
We also had Sister Wong's 5 Week New Missionary Meeting this week!! That was fun. I always love seeing the other missionaries. Plus I got to see my MTC Companion so that is always a bonus too. My favorite part was definitely when all the trainee's got to bare their testimonies. The spirit was so strong! After that meeting is actually when we found out we had a new investigator. We were unable to go to the appointment we had set that day because of the meeting, so we actually had the Sister Training Leaders go for us. We had a member meet them there and it went well. He has read the Book of Mormon twice! They asked if he had ever prayed about it and he said no. Prayer is essential in gaining a testimony of the Book of Mormon. They committed him to do that and set up another appointment. Sister Wong and I are confident in his progress moving forward. We are excited.
On top of all that we got to help take a bunch of old people to the zoo and walk them around :)
Besides that life is good!! We had a scavenger hunt as a zone activity today so if there is wild pictures attached to the blog that would be why.
I love you all and miss you!!
Happy Memorial Day!!!
Much Love Always,
Sister MJ Baird
