This week has been awesome! Starting off with the best news, we have an investigator from the Philippines that is here in Taiwan working. (So our lessons are in English). She has been an investigator for about 5 months now and is great!!! But, her job only lets her get like one day off a month. So she has not been able to come to church. A couple weeks ago we met with her and she decided that it would be easier to wait two years and get baptized when she got back to the Philippines. After lots of prayer and thinking about it. This week Elder Neuhaus figured out a plan. So on Saturday we met with her and shared about Eternal families, it was one the most spiritual lessons I've ever been apart of. We testified of how important it was for her to get baptized to become that solid rock and example her family needs her to be. So she will have one Sunday and then Christmas off to come, she will be getting baptized right after church on Christmas morning!! As we talked about this I have never seen anyone so excited to get baptized. She knows it is true, but the circumstances have been tough. Now she can do it!! It is going to be awesome!
On the Other hand we had something sad happen. We had a baptism planned for this next Saturday. Luo Jiemei, She passed her baptismal interview and was all ready to go, but yesterday told us she is hesitant and needs more time. We are praying very hard for her to feel of the importance of this!
I'm very grateful for the opportunity to be serving the Lord, I see His hand in my life more than I ever have before. I've started at night when I pray, to write in a prayer journal and try to remember where He has helped me through out the day. As I have done this my eyes have been opened to the amount of things Heavenly Father does for us! It's truly incredible when we are open to it, it becomes a lot easier to see.
I love you all and hope you have a great week!
