So as the title says, it
was a good week this past week! It was able to rain a lot this past week
which is totally fine by me, it really cooled things down which was really
awesome. We were able to work despite the rain and the Lord honored us
for it!
So with
regards to Rómeó, we have good news and bad news as well. The good news
is that we were able to meet with him. He is doing really well, just a
bit overwhelmed with his deployment to Afghanistan coming up. He told us in our
meeting that he still had the goal of getting baptized before he went out,
which he originally thought was going to be late July or August. He
called us, however, on Friday night and informed us that he is actually going
to be heading out this Friday. We were pretty bummed but we know that he
is going to be baptized, just going to have to wait until he comes back from
his trip.
We were
able to have 4 investigators in church which was really awesome to see.
We were able to have our investigator family there. It looked as though
they enjoyed it, they just stayed for sacrament meeting, and the best part was
that the members were able to fellowship them. We will be visiting with
them on Tuesday. We were able to have another investigator there who is a
very nice older woman that we have now met with twice. She really seemed
to enjoy it, and we met with her the day before with the branch president,
President Bauer. He was also Catholic and was a big help in the lesson.
We were also able to have another of our investigators there with his mom who
is a member. We met with them yesterday night and were able to speak about the
Book of Mormon, we also read with them from 1 Nephi as they had not really been
able to read much. In church, I translated for a senior missionary named
Elder Ommen, as he gave his talk in sacrament meeting. After church, we
had two other senior missionaries there who had a presentation on the new audit
system for the church. I was able to translate in that meeting as well,
the gift of tongues is real!
We were
able to find 2 new investigators this past week. One is named
TODD!! I KNOW RIGHT! Our meeting with him was really great, we were able
get let into his home on a rainy night. He works for the US military here
in Hungary and lives here with his girl friend. We also met with Éva, the
girlfriend of our investigator János. We spoke of the plan of Salvation
and she told us that from the time we started meeting with János, there is a
different feeling in their home, we testified it was the spirit, who leads us
to find the truth!
We also
were able to meet with our investigators Ferenc and Vere, they don't really
want to meet anymore though, and we also were able to meet with our
investigator Zsuzsi and her son Dávid, our branch president also helped us with
those. The spirit was so strong in the 1st meeting with Zsuszi as we
spoke about the 1st vision. They were not able to come to church but we
hope this week they will come.
This work
is amazing the Lord is honoring us daily! I love this work and I love my
Savior, Jesus Christ.
