Another windy day in Pocatello!
Most of the week was
pretty chill, but Saturday was crazy! We had appointment after
appointment, which is always great! A little stressful--especially when
you're trying to get to all of them on time--but great. Also on
Saturday, President Hancock sent us on another secret mission! To get
Sister Hancock a Valentine's Day Gift for him while he was at a meeting
in Rexburg. I think we accomplished the mission pretty well with a
dozen roses and two boxes of chocolates.
We
are teaching Trey, a Christian guy who lives with a returned
missionary. They've had lots of conversations about faith and about the
Church. Trey seems like he doesn't really want the Book of
Mormon to be true...he even told us that he hopes that it isn't true.
We are trying to help him see that it wouldn't contradict everything
he's ever been taught or prove wrong anything he already knows. It just
supports the Bible and testifies of Christ! Well, we're hoping he will
come around. We are really praying that he will receive an answer that
it is true.
We have a fairly new
investigator, Sarah, that is praying about baptism! She has been
reading the Book of Mormon for a couple months now and is in Mosiah.
Although she has a desire to follow Christ and put forth the commitment
to do so, she has some fears (what family and friends will think, etc.)
but she told us that she knows she just needs to pray to be able to
have courage and get past the fears!
Sister
Gilbert's sister just found out she's pregnant, so Sister Gilbert has
been really excited all week about becoming an aunt. Sister Gilbert is
also excited about her goats back home that are having babies. Sister
Gilbert really likes goats. Hahaha I love her so much.
I
hope you all had a wonderful Valentine's Day and remembered the love
that Christ had for you, especially since it was a Valentine's Sabbath
Day!
"For God so loved the world,o that he
sent his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not
perish, but have everlasting life." -John 3:16
God Bless,
Sister Moreland
