There's not too much to say this week because we were too busy working like crazy.
Goals
We had a very good week, we managed to beat a lot of our goals. We found 18 new people to teach, we had 13 lessons with the help of the members of the Branch and we put our friend on date to be baptized!
Our friend Eduardo who used to be part of the Seventh-Day Adventists now has a hankering to be part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! He accepted a baptismal date for the 16th of May and is preparing a lot by praying and reading the Book of Mormon. He has started coming to church every week and he says that coming to church feels like coming home.
Prayers Needed
This week one of our friends also was part of a car accident so lets get some prayers going for him.
Not much to say this week, I just encourage everyone to focus on goals and plans.
Spiritual Thought
I want to share a little small verse of Doctrine and Covenants section 38 that says, "but if ye are prepared ye shall not fear."
I want to share this part because in my week I've seen how true it is. My companion and I decided this week that we were going to be ambitious and try to reach more people than we have before. So we made goals, then plans, then back up plans, and we followed through with faith that we could do it.
For example, one day this week we decided we wanted to find 2 people in an hour, our plans weren't working so went to our back up plan. Then we stopped in the middle of the street and prayed. The next door we knocked we found someone. Then after that we stopped again in the middle of the street to pray and we found someone else.
When people have faith that God will help them, they act. We put high goals and reached them because we trusted that the lord was preparing people for us to teach, and we made plans for how to find these people.
But that's just my little endorsement for making goals and plans. I hope everyone has a super great week!
