Well things were going really well here. We had a super legit
rendezvous with William the Ghanaian amie! We were teaching a lesson on the
commandment to follow the prophets and I felt inspired to ask him what he felt
about Joseph Smith. He basically testified to us that he knew that he was a
prophet from reading the Book of Mormon and he has watched the video every
morning and he knows that the BOM is the word of God! HE IS READY!! He should be
getting baptised sometime next transfer. We also had a legit lesson with
Damien's family. They have all been reading in the Book of Mormon. Even the
little ones, LEGIT! We watched a movie called Our Heavenly Fathers Plan, (super
old), it's about the plan of salvation and they liked it. We then explained the
first half of the plan of salvation. I shared the experience of when I came home
from track the night mom got diagnosed with cancer and how I tried trick or
treating our own house. Not knowing about anything that mom had been going
through and thinking I was being funny. I had my heart broken with everyone
yelling at me for disturbing our poor mother...not the best way to find out she
had cancer....I was devastated. I remember how powerful family prayer became
then. I shared how unified we became through Christs atonement and through
doing simple things such as family prayers and scripture study! IT WAS SO COOL
to see the kids reaction! Normally they are rambunctious and hyper, like
....normal kids, but after I shared this experience ...everything got really
quiet and the spirit was so STRONG!! I expressed how much love I had for my
savior for bringing our family together and challenged them to hold family
prayers and study! Damien's mom Danielle has already read a descent amount in the
BOM and the Joseph Smith book. She has agreed to be baptised when she knows
it is true!!! I hope she gets it soon but I know and feel like she is so
close!!! Damien's a super example for her and she is super touched by his
testimony and she is super grateful for us and helping him find this incredible
testimony. Which is basically what pushed her into wanting to learn more. The
family she has tried to share the gospel with who wasn't really listening is all
of a sudden listening and not just with their ears, but with their hearts!!! I
am gonna miss them SO much. Even if I get to see them soon with y'all!
Well other than that we had a few other great rdvs with Qiongji and
Winnoc. Qiongji knows baptism is what she needs to do and even has a testimony
of prayer now. BIG STEP. But she really needs a stronger testimony of Christ and
this is our focus on helping her now.
Well I got to leave, but know that I love you so much and that I am
working my hardest out here! I love my savior Jesus Christ and grow closer to
Him every day! ..... I still don't have genetic results yet but the hospital is
sending me all the results this week and then I have got to go back for a check
up soon .....which means I will be doing a trip back to Limoges WOO!!
So here is my new address 10 Rue Brasserie Gruber
Melun ( not sure what the
serial code is)
LOVE YOU TONS
