Well is was another quick, awesome week among these aussies.
On wednesday we went on Branch Harvest with our Branch President. We visited this less-active member named Christine. We went in thinking we would just have a nice chat, and invite her back to church, which we did. But she ended up pouring her heart out basically and started crying. It was really touching! She is hopeful to coming back to church now. And thats the thing I really would like to share this week. That to me was just as important as an investigator getting baptized. To me, saving someone that knows and has heard the truth, but has been lost is as or more important that a new convert.
We also visited a less active lady that hadn't been coming because of health issues, primarily. So we are now taking her the sacrament. Anyway I also hit my 3 month mark too so thats cool.
OH yeah so we did some pretty fun service this last Saturday, at leas i thought it was fun. This part member family, The Hoysteads, has been renovating their house and saturday we had to rip up their old tiles in their house. The tiles we held on by this super strong tar/glue stuff. So we got a big ol weedburner and heated the tiles up and pryed them up with a shovel! About a minute of heat per tile, the tile itself was easy to get up it was getting the tar off the cement was a pain. and having the torch going inside it got to around 113 degrees inside! it was fun we went hard for about 2 hours and had to rest. I will attach a video in the other email.
Well I hope you all are smashing it on whatever you are doing! Stay strong and pray hard!
