Alma 26:12

"Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever."

New Years and Baptismal Invites!

This week was a good one. On New Year's Eve, we just came home early and hung out. We were in bed at 10:30. Probably the most uneventful New Year's Eve that I've ever had.


This week we also did exchanges with our District Leader. His name is Elder Sears and he's from St. George, Utah. He's super cool. Elder Nash and I went with him to a lesson that he had scheduled, and we put the investigator on date for baptism! It was super cool.


Last Saturday, Elder Clay and I were tracting and we weren't having any success. We started to head back to the car so we could head to an appointment. We were almost to the car, when two girls turned the corner. I asked them if they wanted to hear a message about Jesus Christ, and to my surprise, they said yes. So we talked for about ten minutes, and we taught them almost the entire Restoration. We showed them the pictures in the front of the Book of Mormon, and we showed them the pictures of Alma at the Waters of Mormon. When I showed her that picture, I felt the overwhelming impression to invite her to be baptized. I got way scared, cause we had only been talking to her for about 10 minutes. But I invited her, and she said yes! Elder Clay and I committed her to being baptized on Jan 26, after talking to her for only 10 minutes. It was so cool! Unfortunately we have to refer her over to the English Elders, but it was still way awesome! If you follow spiritual promptings, you'll never be wrong!
