Week 57 - Littlerock

 

Hey everyone, this week was really good. Last week we said we'd try to be perfectly obedient, and we have seen some very awesome tender mercies of the Lord. Before heading out on Tuesday after doing our studies, we said a prayer where we asked for someone who needed specifically me and Elder Palmer, someone who needed the Gospel. We were walking and decided to go to one house, and we knocked and this 16 year-old kid answered. His name is Brian. As we began teaching he got quiet and his 20 year-old sister joined in. They asked questions, sincerely wanted to know if it were true. We talked about the steps to make it back to God in this life, and invited them to be baptized and thereafter participate in the sacrament. They accepted the commitment. We have them on date for October 14th. We came back on Saturday and Sunday to remind them, and they said that they had to go shopping first and they'd come after. We have to teach keeping the Sabbath day holy, but they didn't make it to church. Also our studies have improved, they've been more meaningful. This week was good, and thanks for all you do. I know the miracles will continue. We've also been doing district prayers, where everyone prays about very specific things. In district meeting we make a list of names for people and any specific needs, and we all pray for them every night as a companionship and in our personal prayers. It is very cool to see how God answers the prayers we have! 

Love, 

Elder Sant
