I hope that you all had a great week! This has been a
great week on Temple Square! I know I say that all the time but it really is
true!
We have been running around like crazy people! We are
trying to get a hold of Imade, our investigator who is supposed to get baptized
on March 9th! We will pray and hope that we can get a hold of him and that he
went to church!
But, we had a great lesson with Fred (he got baptized on Jan
6th) and he is doing well. Fred has adopted us as his daughters and is not very
happy that we will be leaving but we reassured him that we will be friends
forever. But, the great miracle that I wanted to share happened on Friday
night.
So, my companion and I were on exchanges with another companionship and
well the sister that I was with was great! We took a lesson with some Elders
and their investigators and then we were walking around the square looking for
people to teach. We then walked by the Temple Model (if you have not been to
Temple Square to see it, you should!) and I saw a man looking so intently at
it, so we walked up and talked to him. As we started talking we found out that
he was a member of the church who is seriously struggling with a lot of things.
He just told us his whole life story (that happens all the time). He was really
in need of help and was so sad. So, we shared a scripture and talked some more
and I offered to send him text messages with scripture to read and his face lit
up! He was so excited that there was someone to help him. So, needless to say
as we parted ways that night his countenance was so much brighter then when we
first started talking to him.
I know that this church is true and that God
really does speak to man. We have a living Prophet on the earth to lead and
guide in the right direction.
I know that God listens to and answers our prayers and
always will as long as we are willing to do the talking. I hope you all have a
great week and keep smiling!
Love Always,
Sister Armstrong
