This week was one for the books! Even tho I have been really slacking on my journal habits...
The week started off with a very jam packed p-day. We barely got everything done. Haircuts took 2 hours!!! I was kinda fired up. That's okay. We got all things done and hit the pavement a little early!
We made a effort to talk to everyone and to not let anyone by us without sharing something with them! We are striving to have 10 quality gospel conversations each day! It's been a very stretching goal but it's been huge to help us find those who will he baptized in the coming months.
We had an exchange this past week. Elder Garrison. He goes home on the 17th of July! It was a huge example to me of how I want to be when I am in the last week's of my mission. I learned a lot from him! He is serving in the South Niagara Falls area. Elder Blosch and I stayed in our area and had Elder Garrison come up for the day. We spent a lot of time in Lewiston, it was rough.
I don't know what else to tell you, so much happened!! The highlight of this week was defiantly yesterday. Sunday we had 3 baptisms from 3 different families in the ward. 2 from our area, Hunter and Jeannie. And Jack from the south Niagara Falls area. It was a special Father's Day! To watch 3 and participate in 3 baptisms and help them come and be part of God's family. They were grinning from ear to ear! President Evans came as well! Not to often 3 baptism in 1 ward on 1 Sunday. Pretty awesome. Made NYRM history.
Tiffany came to the baptism and had such a revelatory experience!! I came up to her after and asked how she liked it and she said "you are winning" haha We saw her later that night and she committed to baptism on July 29th. It was answered to prayer! She finally acted upon a promoting!!!! Wahoo! We screamed and jumped for joy after that lesson. :-]
As I'm coming to the last week's of my mission my prayers have become a lot more meaningful and I have taken more seriously the invitation in 2 Nephi 32:9. Not to do anything save in the first place you pray to God in the name of the lord and he will consecrate your performance for your gain. The Book of Mormon has brought me the answers to the questions of my soul. There is safety for the soul found within its pages! Love you all!
Love,
Elder Judy
