Awesome week here in Raleigh! The work has been on fire. We found 6 new people to teach this week and we put one of them on date, Kevin, for baptism for June 20th!
Kevin had met with missionaries before and he knew the Book of Mormon is true, and he also knew that baptism was neccessary. He had a few concerns but we just had to connect the dots for him and promise the blessings the Lord has in store for him.
We had a little miracle last night as well, we had about 10 minutes left to proselyte and we were calling people in our area Book. We called a girl, Hannah. Her Dad is a member of the church and she has taken the lessons several times. We were asking her about her thoughts about our beliefs. We asked her if she had ever prayed about them. She said she did but she didnt feel like she got a specific answer, she did say she felt good though. We testified that our prayers are answered through the power of the Holy Ghost.
We shared with her Galations 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law
We testified that these are the things that we feel when we feel the Holy Ghost. We asked her if she thought that those good feelings she felt were the Holy Ghost, and she said YES! She agreed to let us teach her again and she was so happy that we called.
We also had a super spiritual lesson with a girl named Esther, who says she wants to be baptized again. She is praying about the Book of Mormon before we meet with her on Wednesday! Everyone say a prayer for Esther that she will recognize the Holy Ghost as she prays!
What a week in Raleigh, what a time to be alive, the Lord has truly blessed us!
I hope yall have a good week!
Love
Elder Forrest
