Howdy everyone,
Things this week have been pretty good. We had the opportunity to teach some interesting lessons. At our stake conference about two weeks ago where Elder Perry talked about how missionaries should be going into the members homes and teach them the first three lessons in a way so that they could teach their friends we really worked hard at doing that. We had the opportunity of doing it with some less-active and active members and it proved to be very successful. One of the less-actives that we are working with ended up afterwards posting on facebook that she has been reading from the BOM and feels a lot more happy. First of all that is awesome that she feels that way, but second it helps us with our purpose as we were trying to uplift and strengthen her, she was then able to do missionary work through facebook.
Then it was also interesting as we did it with some active members, and then had the opportunity to talk about PMG with them. A lot of them had never looked into PMG nor new what it was about. But it provided us a way to help them talk about having it more in their homes and lives as they study and live by it.
We also had the opportunity to hear from President Rasband just like Connor. It was really cool. He actually told us the same thing that Connor mentioned in his last letter in regards to President Monson that
1. He loves us
2. He is is praying for us and
3. Thank you
But it was such a blessing to hear from President Rasband. He talked about being down in Oklahoma and seeing the damage there, and even though bad things happen God is still very aware! He also did tell me personally mom that Connor is safe and protected cuz he asked if any of us had family there. So don't worry about bud he will be fine.
I also just really want to tell you how much God really does have people prepared. As we pray about specific people to see or streets to tract there is a way that the Lord will help us find someone if we are obedient! Last night we were tracting in this area trying to find a less-active and we found this super prepared man, Jamie James! He let us come right in and he talked to us about how he has been searching for some truth and hope and we shared the whole restoration lesson with him, gave him a BOM and he told us he would study and pray about it and told us to come back anytime. It was a great experience and I know that I can have those little experiences everyday. Hope you all pray for experiences like that as well.
Whelp. That's all for now folks. Keep being awesome. Hope everything is going well.
Love,
Sister Beames
