Omni 1:26

Turns out that I got transferred to the chosen land. We were off to a rocky start because our area book was in shambles, the members were only semi-supportive, and we had so many meetings that we didn't really have the time to organize things. Well this past week we had training that lite the fire in our zone, and miracles. I’m serving in two family wards and they only had a couple of investigators in both wards (the area had some missionaries for a really long time so things were pretty stagnant). This last weekend was full of miracles; we got 5 new investigators, and set 3 of them to be baptized in the first lesson. All three with dates are pretty golden. The one is Sister D, she cried when she heard the First Vision, and she told us she's never felt this way about any religion. She kept saying how she knows that this is the truth she's been looking for. I had never felt such a strong spirit as when we taught her the Restoration. You know when you bear your testimony, and you get kind light headed because the Spirit is strong, and you don't really know what you said but people thanked you afterwards. That is what it was like during this Restoration lesson. I knew words were coming out of my mouth, but I really can't remember what I said. I just remember this intense Spirit. Miracles happen! I'm learning more, and more every day. I'm obsessed with being on a mission right now (I want to come home one day, and go to Burger Baron), even though my companion is always on my case because I always have worldly songs stuck in my head, but besides that things are super great. Mission love.
