Spiritual: We had an awesome lesson with Maria this week and
as part of it we read the introduction to the Book of Mormon. It was a great
lead up to the invitation to be baptized, she accepted a baptismal date for
November 4th and we are so happy about it! We have been teaching her for a few
weeks and she is so fun. She writes gospel poetry on the side and shares the
Book of Mormon with anybody who needs words of the Lord. We are excited to keep
teaching her and keep seeing her progression.
Funny: We stopped by the house of a (kind of crazy) less-active
lady and we were delivering some of the talks from Women's session of General
Conference to her. She was so happy to get them that she took the papers from
us and hugged them close. By the time we texted her that night she had already
started reading them. It was so adorable. She was just so happy to read the
conference talks again! I wish everybody we were teaching had that same energy
and love for the prophets and apostles.
Where I'm at: The weather here is turning a bit colder and
we are ready for fall to finally start. It's been a fun week preparing for our
"Invite a friend Sunday" next week and we are hoping that it will be
very fruitful with a lot of the members, especially our recent converts.
There's going to be food after, so that's always promising. I'm good,
Arkadelphia is great, Sister Esplin is awesome. All good things.
