February 28, 2017 - Week 71

 

This week was a super fast week! We flew down to Helsinki for a meeting at the president's house and also attended the temple! The flight was very fast, only 50 minutes which was nice! We also got to see an abundance of Heavenly Father's love for us! We had a few doors literally opened for us this week as we were following up with uncontacted referrals and potentials. It seemed that every time in the midst of our problem solving and decision making Heavenly Father just made our lives easier and opened the door or placed someone in our path, it was cool to see and humbling to experience.

We also have this very humble investigator that we have been teaching and he is doing very well. I love that when we teach hi we really focus our lesson on one or to needs that he has and the atmosphere of the lesson is changed to where the teacher and listener are both edified. We got to give him a church tour and the spirit was definitely present in the chapel as we taught about the sacrament. There were also other members there his age that were able to introduce themselves to him.

On Saturday the sisters also held a baptismal service. It was nice and the first one I have attened in a while. The work is hastening and we are being blessed with people who are ready to receive the gospel. I wish I had some cool or funny stories to tell at the moment but I don't. Luckily they are all contained in my journal!

That is all for my week I love you! Have a blessed week!
