Miracles

Aloha!


Lately I have been really focusing on asking the guests at the Visitors Center inspired questions that will help me connect with them. Since I have been doing this I have seen so many miracles! One in particular was yesterday. We had a couple come in asking what scriptures we read from. We told them that we read from the king james version of the Bible and a book of scripture called the Book of Mormon. They had only heard of the book so we show them the Book of Mormon corner where they listened to a recording of Moronis promise (Moroni 10:3-5). My companion then bore a beautiful testimony of how the Book of Mormon has blessed her life. The couple really loved how Moroni's promise talks about turning to God with our questions. We can find examples in the Book of Mormon and the Bible where people turned to God when they had questions and God answered them. Both books of scriptures are witnesses of Jesus Christ's gospel and life. As we were finishing up the tour with this couple the husband told us that because of the positive interaction he had with us he was going to go find a Book of Mormon and read it. He was very happy to hear we gave them to people for free as gifts. 


This interaction reminded me of President Nelson's talk "Peacemaker Needed". In his talk President Nelson says "As you demonstrate the charity that true followers of Jesus Christ manifest, the Lord will magnify your efforts beyond your loftiest imagination." I have noticed as I have been focusing on connecting with the guest in the Visitors Center first and teaching 2nd people are more interested to hear what I have to say and the spirit enters the conversation quicker.


With it being General Conference this weekend now is the perfect time to have your questions answered! Study the scripture, pray, and I promise that as you tune into General Conference you will find answers to your questions.


a hui hou nō!

First Week Of The Last Transfer

Image
This is the first week of my last transfer. I can't believe it! Where did the time go? Sister Drury and I are staying together as Visitors Center Trainers and I could not be more excited. It's going to be a great last 6 weeks. Highs/Lows of the week: ☆We had our first lesson with Kennedy this week and it went so so well. She is such a faithful person. Her boyfriend, who is a member, was telling us that she is always encouraging him to go to church. Kennedy was so cute and took notes throughout the whole lesson so she wouldn't forget anything ☆There was THE BIGGEST SPIDER I have ever seen at the Visitors Center. I am sure it could have eaten me if it was hungry enough. One of the senior Elders was so brave and killed it for us. He is a true life saver ☆We got a shipment in of the Book of Mormon in Navajo. 1st edition! I remember when I was about 9 months into my mission talking to a man who was helping them translate it while he was serving his mission. At that point they we...

Yummiest Taco Soup Ever!

Image
Highs/Lows from the week: ☆I had interviews with President Bassett yesterday and it was great ☆we saw a spider tie up a fly then kill it. Kinda cool but it was inside our house so then we vacuumed them both up. RIP the fly ☆lots of exchanges ☆One of our members girlfriend wants to take the lessons so we are excited to start teaching her ☆everytime we cook we get a million flies in our house. I think there might be a hole in the window screen. ☆we gave a tour to a lady named Elizabeth at the visitors center and at the end of the tour she says "so is there a place I can go to learn more?" Why yes Elizabeth, there is a place you can go to learn more.:) She wasn't interested in staying in contact with us but we gave her a copy of the Book of Mormon and showed her the church's website. She was so interested in learning more! ☆my cousins had me and my companion over for dinner and they made the YUMMIEST taco soup. On Facebook I have been posting a series about different Chr...
