Hey everyone! This week was great as well! Right now we are working hard to finish out this transfer good and with the baptism of Geronimo the 14 of May! This week we saw a lot of progress in our companionship and especially I have seen great personal progress. Im happier than ever and enjoying the good moments and learning from and taking advantage of the trials. Im really greatful to be helping everyone I can here, whether they want it or not.
Scripture of the Week: My scripture of the week is actually a chapter, but oh well. its in Helaman 15, good stuff!
New Investigator of the Week: The new investigator of the week is a woman named Elizabeth. We found her through less active member family. We were having a lesson with them, the family Romero, when they told us about a woman and her 7 going to be 8 kids that they had kindof taken in to help. They moved in to a little house in front of the Romeros, wih nothing. No food, no warm clothing, practically nothing. So the Romeros are helping them out a lot and we are also trying to get the relief society involved as well. But the Romeros asked if we could help them on the spiritual side as well. So we were able to go over there and have a good lesson with her. She is actually very smart and has a good religious believes that are very similar to ours. She was baptized in the Jehovah Witness´s Church and didnt have a good experience, but she said she would get baptized if she was sure of the truth. So it might be a slow process, but really its only a matter of time that shes a member of this true church for sure! Unfortunately, she wasnt able to come to church the first sunday, because she was sick, but we´re hopeful for next week!
Investigator Progress of the Week:
Geronimo: Its only a matter of weeks until Geronimo gets baptized! He bore his testimony again this past sunday about how his parents let him get baptized. He said he was reading in the Book of Mormon, about a part when they prayed for their brethren and then their hearts were softened. He needed the same thing to happen with his parents to allow him to be baptized. So he prayed and thats exactly what happened. Their parents changed their minds and allowed him to get baptized now. I have never seen so much faith in a 14 year boy since Joseph Smith! haha Geronimo is great.
I dont have much to update with our other investigators, because we weren´t able to teach them, but next week!
The Church is true! Love you all!
Elder Trent
