Last night we had something very unique happen. There was a ice storm!!! It was snowing when we went to bed and this morning when we woke up there was a thick solid sheet of ice on the car. It was crazy! It took us a long time to scrape off our car. But, after awhile, the roads were pretty clear so we were able to drive to district meeting.
This week has been great! We were able to teach a lot of lessons. We have a lot of investigators right now. I don't think I have ever taught so many people at one time. The Lord is blessing us so much. It is such a humbling experience. I love this work so much. The days are just flying by. Every night when the light goes off I am in shock that another day is ending. THE end is coming too quickly!!!
Here is an update on one of our wonderful investigators.....Her name is Linda Rutherford.
Holy cow what an amazing lesson we had with her this week! We started off by reading the BOM with her. She didnt' keep her reading commitment so we read 1 Nephi 2 with her. We weren't planning on reading this with her but it was exactly what she needed. The entire lesson was taught by her. As we were reading with her most of her concerns came out. There was a part in the chapter which talked about matching our actions with our desires. She said there were things she has been wanting to do for a long but never has done anything about it. While she was explaining her goals, I was praying for help on how to bring up baptism with her. I was thinking in my head a date for her and her kids to get baptized, I am ashamed to admit that my thought process was "I am ending my mission on the 23rd of Feb which is a Wednesday so the last Saturday would be the 19th." I extend the invitation for her to be baptized on the 19th and she accepted it! She went and looked on the calendar and noticed it was a 3 day weekend! PERFECT!!! She and her 3 daughters came to church on Sunday and seemed very happy to be there! So, I will keep you posted....
