Well we had another good week here in the work of the Lord. This was the last full week of the change so we wanted to try and get things ready for next change!
This week we also went and helped the sister missionaries in our district work their area since my comp is the District Leader. While we were working with them we had a really cool experience. We were teaching one of their investigators who they´ve been teaching for a while and have been trying to put a baptismal date with him but he´s turned it down every time. We were teaching him about baptism and why we get baptized, the spirit was super strong, and then at the end of the lesson the Sister´s tried putting another baptismal date with him and he accepted it! After he accepted it we asked him how he felt and he said it was a feeling that he hadn´t felt before. He said it was like a burning in his heart, and we described to him that the feeling he felt was the spirit testifying to him that what he was doing was right. It was a super cool experience and the spirit was super strong.
Yesterday we also finally got a ward mission leader put in! We´ve been asking for a while now and finally our prayers have been answered. The guy´s name is Pedro and he served his mission in Nicaragua when he got home he got put in as Branch President over one of the branches here in David. The guy is awesome and although he just got the call yesterday he´s helped us out a ton with our recent baptisms. Before I never really realized how important it was to have a Ward Mission Leader or to work with the members but it really makes a world of difference. Also the members have been giving us a bunch of references lately which help a ton as well. References are awesome because it usually means that the people are already somewhat interested and already have a friend who is a member of the church.
But anyways I think that´s about all from me for this week thank you all for your love and prayers! We still don´t know what´s gonna happen for changes, we find out tonight!
love you all
Elder Westwood
