Hello from up Norf! So
this week was bitter sweet and it flew by. I can't even remember what happened
because time is absolutely flying right now. But it was a good week. We
contacted tons of people this week and had zone conference! So we got to hear
from President Miles! Which is always good. We got TIWI's in our car, so we have some voice
yelling at us now, haha not really they aren't too bad. But we have to log into
the car before we drive so that is weird. (Note from Elder Ollis' mom:
But we did have some sweet success! We met
with those turkish guys, last night. And sure enough there were two more of
them who seemed interested and wanted to learn more. So we picked them up as
new investigators! They keep appearing! It has been hard though because some will
be there and others won't. so they aren't all at the same speed for what we
teach, but we are trying to work through it. But as for the Bitter, we met with
our Vietnamese investigator on Saturday and she came to church but at the end
of the lesson she told us she can only meet one more time because she is going
home. I was so sad. But I am going to get her address and refer the
missionaries in Vietnam so she can get baptized there. And I will have a
picture next week with her. Also it was funny at the end of the lesson she said
she wants to come to our weddings when we get home. So I hope she can go in the
temple! And that was our week!
But I wanted to leave you with a thought. This
week we tracted into some crazy lady from another church. She loved what we
were doing and after a few minutes she offered a prayer before we left. It was
strange to hear another prayer of another faith. And the thing that struck me
is how grateful I am to know about our father in heaven. She had no idea who
she was praying to as she used words like Father, brother, savior, maker, all
interchangably. It is amazing how confused she was. But Brothers and Sisters we
are not! We know who our God is, he is our Father. And he loves us. And we know
this because Joseph Smith witnessed it!
Love you all and hope you have a good week.
