Bikes=Miracles

Well there have been many miracles this week!!! We have had an exchange almost everyday this week to come out with us even if it is to go and stop by some former investigators or some less actives. I really love our ward so much. It is growing so big. We just had 3 new families move in this past month with 6 children each!!! I love being able to learn all of their names!!! I love our ward so much. They are really supportive of us and they want to help us out as much as they can with missionary work. We are going to start taking the young men out with us on exchanges to help them prepare for missions. Scott Whitcar is back this week so we will be phoning him alot to come out and help us. We got two new investigators this week. Twain is a miracle. He was a friend of one of the members in the ward and came to church one day and absolutely loved it. We taught him the restoration and he loved it and believed it all. He will be baptised at the end of July!! We met with a referral from Sanford whose mother was a member. She had some questions that we were able to answer and then we taught her the restoration as well. She has had some experiences with the Holy Ghost directing her and she has acted upon those promptings. The Lord is really blessing us for our diligence to bike and not complain!! He has given us investigators that are really elect and have alot of potential. I am really excited on what this week has to bring. We just had Zone Conference on Friday and man was it wonderful. I really learned how Christ feels about our investigators. He loves them so much and I got to feel that love. It brought me to tears how powerful the feeling was. I am grateful for my Heavenly Father and the small miracles he gives me each day. He is so generous and merciful. We also learned a new pattern of teaching as well. Its REALLY HARD!!! We are to ask our investigators, before we teach anything, questions that the spirit wants us to ask to figure out their concerns so we can teach them the way the Lord wants. We did some role plays with it and man was it hard. It's hard to just open you mouth and get out of the way and let the Spirit teach. I am going to try harder to do this. The spirit is the teacher I am not. If it is taught by some other way it isn't of God (D+C 50:9-22) It was definately a wonderful Zone Conference. Justice is getting Baptized this week. We are really excited about him. In our last visit with him he told us that ever since he has made the decision to be baptized he can't stop smiling. He is prepared and ready!! He will be baptized his friend Hawk who just turned 16 yesterday! Its going to be a great experience. Things have been really going great here. Elder Cline and I have been making goals to be more obedient. It has been great to see the Lord bless us for being obedient. We cannot receive blessings if we aren't being obedient (D+C 130:20) I am excited to keep on going. There are lots of people here who need the gospel!!!
