Dear family and friends,
This last week was really good! I had a meeting
for the District Leaders and it is really weird to think that I have
been District Leader for 8 months now! I really enjoy doing it so that's great!
Last week we did have a tender mercy while we were on exchanges. I was with Elder Garry who only has 4 weeks in California. He and I went to one of our
investigators house. We taught him the restoration and
invited him to be baptized and he said yes! He then said he would
prepare to be baptized on the 30th of this month!! So we are praying and
doing every possible thing that we can so that he can make his date. We
also asked him to offer the closing prayer and he did and then he
started to cry so it was a very touching experience.
We also taught more
lessons this past week and we are inviting everyone to be baptized
because that is how we are going to baptize every month I also ran into
some of my old investigators from San Gabriel. They made a U-turn and
pulled off on the side of the road while I was on exchanges just to say
hi to me! So I gave them my address and told them to write me. It was
really cool! They still haven't been baptized but one day they will!
We had Stake Conference yesterday and I was able to see all of the people from Rimgrove. That was cool too! We had a member of the Seventy at our conference and he talked about missionary work. He gave some really cool stories about miracles in missionary work. It was awesome!
Other than that we have just been trying to find. This last week being graduations and all that fun stuff nobody has
really been home to talk to us so we are hoping this week will be better
and that we can find new people to teach. I know that good things
will come if we continue to put our trust in the Lord.
I am doing so well! I am MRSA free and
sickness free I am happy and healthy and I am doing my best to purify
myself. I think I want to be a Zumba instructor when I get back! We also had zone training which President Becerra came and blew all of
our minds!! He talked about stuff we could do in the first lesson so we can get it
centered on baptism and really set expectations and explain our purpose
so they can know from the get go what we are all about.
Anyway, that's all I have for this week.
Love, Elder Reisner
