We went to a gator farm on Monday!! It was tons of fun. There were crocodiles, snakes, monkeys, chickens (to feed the crocodiles), deer, horses, goats, eagles, cows, and other birds. I got to feed a chicken to a crocodile! It was attached to the end of a stick. We hung it over the edge of the fence, and they jumped up and grabbed it! Crocodiles are very powerful.
District Meeting was great! It was called "Recognizing to Resolve." When we as missionaries can recognize the Spirit, we can help those we teach resolve their concerns. This can even apply to everyone! Once we are in tune with the Spirit, that is when we can best help others :) Preach My Gospel says," Regardless of needs or problems, all people are best helped as they accept and live the gospel." That is so true!
Elder Curtis found this on his bike
Wednesday was exchanges! Elder Bennion and I were together for the day. He also came out with me from the MTC! We both wanted to work on having faith that prayers can be answered. In our morning prayer we prayed to find a new investigator that day! Turns out, it happened!
Exchanges with Elder Bennion
Our kind drunk/half naked investigator who gave us a lift
On Thursday our investigator Chrisma was baptized! It was a great experience. Her husband became less active, and started falling away from the church. Eventually, he started coming back into the church. He was able to baptize her :) I love when people experience change in their lives. Change brings us closer to Him that continually changes us :)
Sunday was great too! There was an unusual amount of people that came to church! There were people that haven't come in months, years, and even decades! The Lord is softening hearts. He has a plan for each one of us. He cares for us. In His own time, He brings us back to Him :)
I hope everyone has a great week and they remember to make their beds and thank their parents for everything :)
