Letter #61: LA Temple!

So this week has been a good week… It has flown by.

On Tuesday we took our investigator A_________ to the LA Temple visitors center and the sister missionaries their gave a tour and taught a lesson using all the cool exhibits. It was an amazing spiritual experience. The visitors center is super cool. A________ is super ready to be baptized. He is amazing. He is so funny, always making jokes all the time. He was begging us to come over to his house for a “lesson” on Sunday around 4. I knew he just wanted us to come over to watch the SuperBowl. He loves sports and especially the Broncos… haha

Then we have been working with L______ a lot this week and also started teaching her husband, O__________ who was a bit iffy at first but we started teaching them and invited them to church and they both came. It was testimony meeting and the spirit was super strong. They both felt something that they want to feel more. We had a lesson with them after church and invited O__________ to be baptized, and he said yes as well. Something really changed with him after being there at church. The power of the Spirit in conversion is everything, the most important job that we have as missionaries is to help them feel and recognize that Spirit. We have been trying really hard to create super spiritual experiences with our investigators and it truly has worked miracles.

We also found a couple new investigators this week. A couple named C_________ and R_________. They are super cool. They are pretty young with a couple of daughters so we are going to try and teach them as a family. R_________ told us that she goes to a church every week but she feels weird, like it isn’t right and has been praying to know what she should do. Then we came knocking. It is crazy how God prepares people and puts them in our path.

I was a little sick this week with a slight cold/flu/virus thingy and the mission nurse told me to stay in for a couple days. 🙁 But I am feeling better now and am excited to get back to work this week. It is also starting to heat up today… 🙁

I don’t have a lot of time left so this should be it.

I love being a missionary and all the spiritual experiences that happen every day. All the miracles. It truly is a once in a lifetime experience!
