Another
week gone! Whoever made up the phrase "Time Flies" really did know
what they were talking about!
Despite
a lot of challenges this week, we still made it great. We were able to go to
the Temple on Tuesday and had a great Stake Conference this weekend. New Stake
Presidency due to the Stake President going to be a Mission President in Chile
in June!
We
taught a family from Congo yesterday! Bishop McKee and his family are mentors
to them, and they came to Stake Conference with them too. The lesson we had was
awesome, Samuel the dad knows English pretty well. He was a pastor for a
Christian church in Congo and Uganda. When we taught about Joseph Smith he got
really interested and said "If you have a book about this I will read it
to know it is true".... perfect intro into introducing the Book of Mormon
to them! Very sweet and fun family!
Joy!
This is not just joy for happiness, but Joy as in the person! Very sweet lady
that is going through some tough stuff in life. We had lunch with her during
the week and taught her in Bishop Maxson's home yesterday! Very powerful Spirit
there and she accepted to be baptized when she knows this is true and receives
that answer! I could really feel how much God loves her and has prepared her
for this.
We
are still figuring out how to balance working in both wards especially since
the boundaries don't touch so we have to cross another ward, which uses time
and miles!
I
love this work and we have a busy week ahead of us. We have set some high
expectations in faith that things will come together :)
Love
y'all, Elder Bean
