Week #54 - GOD'S PLAN

Yet again, it was another blessed week in Texas! The Lord is good and He leads.

We saw some awesome miracles this week. I just love being out and doing my Heavenly Father's work.

THIS PAST WEEK ANNIE WAS BAPTIZED. It was such a sweet service and the spirit was for sure there. She's such a sweetheart. All her extended family came and her dad that is a recent convert got to baptize her. My heart was so full. I love baptisms.

One cool miracle we had this week was a girl that I had talked to on campus about a month ago ran into us again on campus. We had a really good talk with her and set up a time to meet. On Thursday we met with her and she brought her Bible and wanted to see the connection from our beliefs to hers. She was utterly blown away by the Plan of Salvation that is in the Bible and how everything is in there. BUT WAIT. We ended the super good lesson with Jayla and a girl that was sitting right next to us at a table close by came and sat down with us! She told us she wanted to hear what we believe. We taught her the full restoration and a huge chunk of the Plan of Salvation. She felt the spirit so strong. It was amazing. When the lesson ended she asked for a copy of the Book of Mormon and if we could meet up again. People are looking for the gospel. I love the Plan of Salvation!!!! 

Another cool miracle we had was on Saturday night we were teaching our friend Chukwudi. He is dealing with a ton of family opposition and just struggling with it. At the end of the lesson, Elder Potter bore a short and powerful testimony and quickly said "let's pray but we need to kneel down." So, we all knelt down to pray in the middle of the student center at Sam. The spirit was soooo strong. He was blown away. He texted us later at 1am that night that he felt it and wanted more. He came to church yesterday and loved it. The spirit is the converter. The spirit will always lead.

Our week was mostly spent on campus talking to college kids and inviting them to Christ. We have some wonderful people we are teaching right now. They are all progressing so well. I love this gospel so much. I love being a missionary and I love you all! God bless!
