We were driving home from our ward picnic on Saturday and saw we had a voicemail. We listened to it and some Sister Missioanries had chatted online with a woman named Tracy and she was wanting to come to church. So we called Tracy and as we were talking to her she goes on to tells us that everything in her life has lead her to this moment. She said that she was so excited to come to church, and in tears, was so happy we called her.
So fast forward to church... one of our members brings her and we teach her for the firsr time. In all honesty the best lesson I have ever experienced. I have never met anyone more prepared than Tracy. She had had so many contacts with the church before but she had always turned it away. But she was her now and was waiting for what we had to teach. She cried so much because she was just so ready. And at the end of the lesson Hermana Hainsworth invited he to be baptized and she said "Yes! Yes I will!" And just began to sob! It was rhe most tender moment I have been a part of. She was prepared by Heavenly Father and was eager to be healed by Christ and His sacrifice.
During that lesson I felt so much love for her and was just so excited for her. I know the message we share is true. It is the one and only thing that will truly heal us.
Mood Rings-
We were walking by a house and I saw the car was from Ohio so I wanted to go and meet them, because no one here has a car from Ohio! So we knocked and no one answered. We walk away and there was a group of kids ages 5-11 just having fun and going to the river. So we talked to them and gave them CTR rings and taught about Choosing The Right. Well, one of the smallest girls says "Well, can I give you my glow in the dark mood ring? I got them at a garage sale." we were so excited, so we traded rings. Then as Sister Hainsworth was talking to one of the other girls, the girl stops and says, "Wait, my mom always tells me not to talk to strangers, are you a stranger?" Then a boy in the group says, "No their not strangers, their Christian. No Christians are strangers, we learned that in church last week!" It was the cutest thing! And then another girl says, "I am never going to forget you! I am going to put this picture and ring right by my bed!" It was so sweet!
Have a great week!
