Last week was one of the best weeks i have had on my mission so far! It was filled with so many miraculous miracles!!!
A few months ago, an Apostle of the Lord, Elder Ballard came and
spoke to the whole Washington Kennewick Mission. He gave us this promise
" i promise all of you, that if you open your mouth and talk to 70 new
people each week you WILL double the amount of investigators you have in
your teaching pool and your baptisms will double also." This promise
has changed my mission so far because as me and my companion strive to
talk to 70 new people each week is when we find the most investigators
and when we see the most miracles!
Last week we set a goal to talk to 70 new people and find four new
investigators! which meant lots of tracting! On Friday sister meyers and
i were looking for the perfect spot to tract. we were driving kind of
slow so we could scout out the perfect spot and this truck was right on
the butt of our car so we turned onto this street so they would stop
driving so close to us and i told Sister Meyers that this looked like a
good street to tract on. she said okay and how about we start on that
house at the beginning of the street, i said okay! so we knock on this
door and this 20's year old guy answers the door ands seems very
intersted in what we say and lets us in and we teach him and his little
sister the restoration! they loved it and said we could come back! we
keep tracting on this street after that and we found a few potential
investigators and then the very last door that we knocked on a girl
answered the door and said that she is very interested in learning more
about what we teach and she actually said that her dad is a member of
the church and he wants to start coming back again. she also said that
there is 14 kids in there family and they said we could come back and
teach them! we have a lesson tonight with them!
Over, over, and over again i see that whenever you set a goal on
your mission or just in life, if it is a good goal, an accomplishable
goal, and a goal that is reachable and attainable but makes you stretch,
and if you have faith and work like you are going to accomplish the
goal. The Lord is going to do everything he can to help you to reach
your goal. Last week we found exactly four new investigators and we
talked to 84 new people. I know that Gods hands are in every aspect of
our lives. I know he wants whats best for us and he wants to helps us
but most of all i know he loves us!
i hope all of you have an amazing week and a great Valentines day!
Love, Sister Lindmeir :)
