Hey Everyone! I don't have too much time to write but i just wanted to give you all an update on how things are going!
So this week we were able to see our friend Catherine get baptized! She has an amazing story. She had been looking into the church for a while and finally decided to refer herself to the missionaries down in Texas where she was living. And honestly God had definitely prepared her to receive his word. She was so ready and by the time she moved to Omaha she was telling all her friends about the gospel. She also was in a religion class and had to defend her beliefs and did it! And now she's been baptized and her journey just keeps going!
We also had a stake conference that was really good. They talked about Unity and how we all need to be united with Christ.
And we met this person named Molly who is so ready for the gospel. She came to church on Sunday and she kept talking about how welcome she felt there and then even posted about what an amazing experience it was on Facebook!
And then our friend Chris has been coming to activities and church and he always texts us thanking us for talking with him. He loves the gospel and church and we're probably going to invite him to be baptized tomorrow!
Okay so right after I wrote that Chris texted us and said, "I think it's time I took a big step and get baptized. Sound like a plan?" God is so good and he is moving his work forward! And that's kind of what I wanted to share today. As I was reading the scriptures this week I've been thinking about God's love for us and how much he really does to help us. It's been amazing to see Him in my life and in the lives of others. So my invitation to you all is to look for God in your life this week. Pray to be able to see Him helping you and I promise that you will be able to.
Have a great week!
