This week was a good one. Unfortunately, all pictures this week are pending. Transfer's were this week, and we are staying together!
We did some service by ripping up a member's bathroom, helping him remodel, which was a lot of fun. We also helped someone move and got to ride in a sweet hardtop convertible BMW.
We had some success finding this week. We knocked out an older and mostly retired community this week, and found a few new investigators. We also had a wonderful conversation with a very nice older gentleman who gave us study guides for Deuteronomy and 1 John. It was pretty neat. We had some meaningful meetings with those we are currently working with and now have an investigator on date to be baptized on the 5th of May. We also had meaningful lessons with several others.
I love helping people overcome very difficult challenges by faith, some of which I can relate to a lot! We had a baptism this Saturday, although it was the Martin's (senior couple) baptism, not ours. It was still great though.
Yesterday we met the Hartvigsens, which is Norwegian and means son of a deer killer. Pretty sweet! We also had a miracle yesterday! We nearly had a meeting with a former investigator, but she bailed at the last second. We were pretty sad about it, but we decided to stop by unannounced this evening, and we found a wonderfully prepared new investigator! The former was not there, but Rick was so excited to see us! He wants daily contact, consistent visits, and to come to church every week! He also firmly believes, as do we, that we were sent by God that night. How much more golden can you get! Just think, if that former's, lesson had gone according to plan, we never would have met him. God works in mysterious ways!
Anyway, hope you all have a wonderful week. I love being a missionary!
