We had our two investigators attend sacrament, but one of the coolest things happened after sacrament meeting. Two investigators, gave us a call and asked if we would be willing to come over and give them a priesthood blessing. They have been attending the Wednesday bible study classes and had heard about the priesthood and its power to heal trough faith. We had the opportunity to bring one of the members of the congregation with us to administer the blessing. The spirit was so strong, and I don't know if I have ever seen them so happy. We will be seeing them again soon.
This week has also been extremely successful in finding new people to teach. A cool experience we had while knocking doors as it was just about to rain so we where trying to finish up. On our way back we see a woman trying to move some tables and things into a moving van, so we offer to help....... You would have thought that she had just won the lottery with the look on her face!!! We help her move and then her natural curiosity comes through and she asks the question we knew was coming, "who are you and why are you so kind??" We reply that we are missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She then breaks down. She tells us as a story of how two young men just like us had helped her years ago get over some addictions she was having. She never knew their names or who they were till that day that we came to help!!! She had been prepared at that time for us to be there and for us to bring the gospel into her life.She is now intently reading the Book of Mormon and she holds it dear to her heart!!!
