This week has been good, and I want to talk about two main things that happened this week! Well, I guess kind of three.
Just information because I know you all care..
I sang in church and we got to have interviews with President this week. Both fun awesome times.
Now the three great blessings of the week!
First: Mary Beth and team ups!
So this week, we did team ups and I was with the awesome Sister Searle. We ended up stopping by this less active man's home and he let us in! There was a woman in the home, so we were able to! Well, long story made a bit shorter, he has been less actives for ages and she is a non member who has some kind of relationship with. Not really sure, but I will worry about that later. We ended up talking to them for over an hour and answering a lot of her questions. We ended it by setting up a return appointment with the two of them and giving him a chapter to read in the Book of Mormon. She is convinced that she will not join the church, but I will let the spirit deal with that one. Book of Mormon and the spirit are pretty amazing tools.
Second: Cameron and Brandon!
Well Cameron is an investigator that we have had for a bit. We thought he was super promising and then he just dropped off. Nothing. So we decided to try one last time before setting him to former. Well, we knock and like most our life, no answer. As we start to leave a truck pulls up! Of course we go and talk to him and it turns out it was his brother Brandon! Well, we were talking to him, gave him a Book of Mormon and set up a return appointment and then Cameron walks out! Turns out he felt bad for leaving us hanging and came to see if we were still there. Well, he starts asking questions and we end up teaching the two of then the entire Plan of Salvation. They are amazing!! It was amazing to see the Lord's timing going on and to be apart of it.
And number three: the Hastie/Hathaway clan!
This is an amazing family. So sweet. Simply put because this email is getting long, they did not come to church Sunday, but she invited us to their home for dinner and an FHE (Family Home Evening) tonight!! Half the family is members and half are not. We are so excited to begin working with them. One of the daughters was looking through the pictures on my tablet and finds on the temple. Points at Moroni and asks what is that? We then tell her and end up giving her a Book of Mormon of her own, which she did not have, and by the time we left she had almost read the entire introduction. She was so excited. She then was reading again Sunday evening when we were talking to the woman we set the dinner up with. If a 10 year old girl can read the Book of Mormon, so can we!!
I love you all and know that God is a God of miracles. He loves us and He uses us to help others, we just have to be open and willing to respond to the spirit.
Stay amazing and smile, because it is always better with a smile!
Oh, also, instead of P-day being on Tuesday for transfers, they will now stay on Monday.
Much Love Always,
Sister MJ Baird
