Elder L and Spud Boy (4/12)

This week has been great! Man does Elder Godby love his potatoes! He introduces himself as a spud boy haha.
Elder Godby and I are working hard though! We have seen a lot of cool miracles like:

1. A couple of days ago during our companionship study we had a lady come knock on our door. We open the door and there is this sweet old lady on our porch and she asked us for some reading material, so we taught her the restoration and gave her some pamphlets. We told her that if she read and prayed she could come to know that it was true and she told us " oh don't worry I already know it's true" very sweet lady. The sad thing is that here husband is Muslim and not open to us coming by and teaching her.

2. On Wednesday we had our bishop come out with us! His name is Bishop Herrod and he is one of the greatest bishops ever! We took him to an appointment and afterward he told us that he wanted us to stop by someone's place. He told us that he was kinda worried about it because the lady we were going to go see lived in assisted living place and the lady's family didn't want her talking to members of the church. So he was kinda nervous but he said we were going  to do it anyway haha. So we met Tina Anderson and she is just the sweetest old lady. She loves the church and wants to be baptized!

3. Oh yeah can't forget, dinner with the Schmitts! So the great thing about having the Mission president in our Ward is that sister Schmitt takes care of our dinner calendar! But she signed up for dinner this Thursday and they asked us to bring someone to dinner. So we invited a part member family and it turned out really well! We invited the part member family to church and they said they would try and at the end of our lesson president asked his son Clayton who is 8 years old to say the prayer. In his prayer he thanked Heavenly Father for his new friends and he asked that his new friends would be able to come to church so that was kinda funny. 

4. Yesterday we were trying some less active homes and we got in the car and we felt impressed to knock on some random guy's door. When we knocked on the door this very nice man named Scott answered and asked if we wanted to come in. He told us that he has kids that are LDS but that he wasn't. He told us that he has seen missionaries walk past his house for years but no one ever knocked on his door. He invited us back though so that was cool.
 

 

This week has been awesome! Today we also went to the temple!!! I think that's it for this week!

Love ya!
