Yet another week in the books! A great one here in Sundsvall as usual. :) Really not too much out of the ordinary, just a lot of missionary work! Surprise, that's what I've been doing for the past 2 years. :) lol no, but this week, we had quick a few lessons! The usual people as well as a few new! Man, I love teaching people about the gospel. That which has given me the most happiness in my life and being able to give that to others. Amazing. :) we did some service at a members home. They're building onto their house and we when over there twice to help him put up insulation and dry wall. Way fun! Love being able to work with my hands. :) This last Wednesday was Halloween, not my favorite holiday in the world. Haha but it's not a super big holiday here, but there are some Canadians in the world that set up a little trick or treat for the ward, so we were able to head out there and help out. Loads of fun! Fun to see all my little friends dressed up! We had one member meal and we had choir after church which was sweet. Mom knows how much I love choir. Haha. Then the rest of the week was filled with finding! Knocking doors and talking to people in the streets. :) great week I would say!
Cool story! So on Saturday, we were out knocking doors, and we found this neighborhood with some way sweet houses. We knocked a few, not too many home which was kind of interesting. But we kept going. We knocked on this house and we start talking to this lady, she was putting up a wall and being kinda sassy at first. Then we just starting talking about life, she opened up and said that her sister was a member in the states! She said that she is with another church but knows "all about us" hahah nah, she invited us in, we talked and she showed us pictures, she even took us to her backyard and showed us where her and her husband grow grapes. Let us try some. Way yummy. :) and showed us where they make wine as well! Way nice lady. Said she wasn't too interested in the church, but who knows what will happen in the future!
This week for some reason, nearly every lesson we taught, it somehow came back to receiving personal revelation! It was kind of cool. We were able to invite all of them to read president Nelsons talk from April general conference. So that means I got to read it myself as well! And as I read, I thought a lot about how having the spirit with me and a companion, a guide, a comforter has truly blessed my life! I am so grateful that we have a loving heavenly father who trusts us enough to allow us to make our own decisions. I know that God and Jesus christ live! And love each and everyone of us. I know the holy spirit is there guiding our thought and actions. As long as we stay worthy, he will ALWAYS be with us. :) listen for the small promptings you receive and act on them! You will be blessed for it. :)
Well my lovelies, I hope you have a fantastic week! I love you and miss you so much! Thanks for you love and prayers. :) As always Keep The Faith!! :)
Love,
Elder Baggett
