Monday!
So last Monday was P-day, a great day. We had mixed up two dinner appointments we had, and so we asked the Evans (The Stake president of Nova scotia and his wonderful wife), who happen to be some of my favorite people if we could reschedule with them for that night. They agreed, and sister Evans told us "Well this maybe a change from God! Mary's sister is coming over tonight for supper, and I think she's been having a rough week." (Mary is our recent convert here) Well we were excited for the opportunity to teach her during our "spiritual thought", and so we considered what we should share throughout the day.
Well we simply decided we should teach about who God is, and how much he loves us! This was a simple and powerful lesson, we each testified of god's love, and Mary's testimony was amazing! she shared about how her life changed, as she had been facing many trials, but then learned of God's love for herself personally. Well, her sister had her guard up, but I was able to see in her eyes the desire for the peace and joy Mary felt! Well I invited her to meet with us to learn more, and she gladly accepted!
It is so neat to teach this plain gospel of peace love and joy!
So our plans were pushed back due to this lesson, which was ok😊 we were worried to drop by one guys house that we had planned on because he had kids. We dropped by at 8, and he let us right in, and told us that this was the only time that we would ever be able to meet!
This man was brother Cory Brown! and our lesson was amazing, he shared with us his witness of the restoration! he had watched the restoration video, and felt the spirit witness it's truth to his heart. We committed him to be baptized, and he agreed, he was so excited and this was our first lesson with him. We had dropped by so many times, but God blessed our efforts!
I love you all and I want to challenge you to ask God for one opportunity to testify of His love today. And please search out an opportunity to let someone know that they have a heavenly father who knows and loves them!
