It has been a disgustingly hot and incredibly quick week.
Here's the rundown!
Teaching lots of people finally!
We put Xavier on date for baptism!!
Exchanges🙌
The heat is killing me
We are teaching a few people who are progressing right now! We're super excited to help them grow their faith and any prayers towards these friends would be greatly appreciated!
Khayreesha: she called us out of the blue last week and wants to be taught again! She's worked with missionaries before and really feels like the gospel made her happier and wants that feeling back! We're super excited and she's been progressing a lot already!
Jonathon: he requested a Bible way back when and wasn't interested in what the elders had to say. Well, we were in the area and stopped by and he's been going thru it. He said he'd love to come closer to Christ, we gave him a Book of Mormon and we're hoping he makes it to church this Sunday!
Ken: he is a media referral and we're his 4th set of missionaries because he went to the Spanish missionaries, the YSA missionaries, and back here in Walnut Creek to us. He's been taught so much and is so willing to follow Christ!
XAVIER!!: He's 9 years old, some of his family are members, and his big sister is getting baptized in a few weeks too! His mom is really excited for him and we're glad he's moving forward! He is on date for the end of the month!
We got to go on exchanges this week and do a blitz (see last week's email) in the YSA ward. I was with my STL while we all proselyted on Citrus College! It's amazing how many people we talk to on campuses!
Now for the highs of the week...haha, get it?
112°
It was a crisp 80° for our 6:30am walk most days and typically 100°+ from 10am to 9pm.
If you know me, I'm sure you can imagine how chipper and excited I was to go out, but I had to keep telling myself, I can do hard things. Plus, Jesus had to walk in the heat too.
In that same vein, Jesus walks everyday with us. On the one hand, he's felt and went through everything we have. And on the other, we can have His spirit with us always. So when you feel alone or like no one knows what you're going through, consider Christ. Shift your focus to Him and recognize Him walking every step with you.
