So this past week, we had an interesting story. We went to go and stop by someone in the area, who we didn't have the Membership record for, who we only found out about because someone in a different ward had called us about them. It just so happened that when we went to go and stop by them, our Bishop and one of his secretaries pulled up in the car next to us. It was completely unplanned, we were just stopping by because we had a few minutes and they were on our list of people we were trying to get a hold of. When we went in we were able to help with giving the dad a priesthood blessing. We had tried by there house a few times before and it just happened to be the right time. We were able to set up an appointment with them for this coming week. This is how you know that your in the right place when you needed to be, the Lord can give us promptings, we just need to follow them.
It is now interesting being in a Family ward and a Branch. We now have a lot more meetings that we have to go to on Sundays. Although it feels like the work is picking up. We have been working with a Less Active who seems like he is really wanting to come back to church, and is getting involved with the other ward activities. Then in the YSA branch, we are working with a cool investigator, who seems like he is progressing quite fast. We met with him 3 times this past week and he seems to already have a great testimony.
I know this work is the work of God. I know Jesus have us a great gift, He gave us the gift of Repentance. I think it is a great thing that we are able to be forgiven of our sins and be able to feel the joy that comes from a Loving Heavenly Father. I know the Gospel is the True word of God.
I love you all. I know Heavenly Father loves you!
Love,
Elder Warkentin
