This week was great. Miracles galore!!
Monday was cool, we went to teach Scott and had an awesome lesson on Faith and how that is the only way that he is really going to be able to learn truths about God, he really is worried about evidence and what not, but he is awesome and really sincerely wants to learn. Brother Wright that we have eaten with a couple times came with us, he is the man.
Tuesday we had a practice for caroling with our district, then District meeting, then dinner with the Jones, they are awesome, he is the PR rep for Playstation, they have us a referral for a family they know, they weren't interested, but it was still awesome direction! After that we went and tracted the rest of the night!
Wednesday we had exchanges, me and Elder Kauvaka were together, he is from Hawaii, it was great, we had dinner with one of their members and they gave us SO MUCH FOOD. It was awesome. We met a lot of really cool people tracting up in the really rich neighborhood on the hill, it was a blast.
Thursday we had a crazy service. We got a call in the middle of personal study from the crystal springs 1st Elders asking us to go help them clean a hoarder house. It was totally disgusting. Nasty piles of trash totally packed in to this one tiny room, we discovered that underneath all of it were two beds, a crib, a dresser, and a tv. it took 7 hours and 12 missionaries but we finished it. It was crazy. we went and contacted referrals after that then helped brother Callaghan with something at the church.
Friday was weekly planning and we planned all day and ate dinner and went and contacted referrals and tracted.
Saturday we first had a lesson with a guy named Milton, he's Baptist and really interested, he committed to read and pray about the book of Mormon and said he wants his wife to learn about it with him!!! Next we had a blitz in Crystal Springs 1st, it was really successful! Then we had dinner with the one and only Elder Oborne, or as he now goes, Will. He trained Elder Henson last year and went home 6 months ago, it was so fun to talk with him!!
Sunday we had church, and it was invitation Sunday, and we had three nonmember families attend with a total of 14 nonmembers there!!! It was awesome!! Right now we are getting ready to start working with three new families, plus Milton's family, so all in all 4 new families!!!
This week was awesome. I saw the hand of the Lord in our area. It is so rare to find families here, Almost unheard of, and this week we were blessed to meet 4!!!! I love being a missionary!! I hope everyone has a good week!! Merry Christmas!!!
Love,
Elder Tolman
