BAPTISM LAST WEEK +Bonus :)

 

HELLO ALL!

 

So you know how we had a baptism last week? I didn't mention quite possibly one of the greatest things that I have ever before heard or seen happen ever in my life. Alex's mother-in-law was there and saw her son-in-law whom she despised and wanted to throw out, get baptized. The spirit was so incredibly strong and Alex was so excited. after the service Jeanne, Alex's mother-in-law, who has taken missionary lessons before said, "I'm next." SHE WANTS TO GET BAPTIZED!!! In fact she committed HERSELF to be baptized into this church because she felt the spirit testify to her that this way is the right way that God has prepared for the whole of human kind to return to God. When an investigator commits themselves to baptism... THE LORD HAS BEEN IN THE WORK LONG BEFORE!!! I know that is true!!

This has been such an amazing week!!! President Vellinga came out teaching with us on Wednesday night and all of the lessons just went so incredibly well and the spirit in every single one of them was so strong!! But I want to tell about the one lesson that President Vellinga wasn't there for first.

Sister Lisa Shell. This is the lady who had missionaries about a year ago contact her and give her the phone number for this area. we met with her this last week and we absolutely, totally and completely without a doubt had the assistance from the holy spirit as we taught and spoke. We read the Introduction with her and NEVER have I EVER heard of anybody read the Introduction with such wonder and fascination. We will be talking about the Plan of Salvation next visit which will be incredible!! I know this Church is true!! I wish I could talk about everything that ever happened this week but I just don't have the time. 

Just know that this church is true, it is "Gods kingdom once again restored to the earth preparatory to the second coming of the messiah," and live the teachings found in the word of God both revealed anciently and contemporaneously and you will have eternal life. baptism by someone holding the authority of God is essential to returning to him. That authority is found ONLY in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I KNOW IT!! and that will never change. I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ amen.

Fight the fight, stay the course, keep the Faith!

Love,

Elder Trigga Trey Toolson III (which is not my name but we'll roll with it)
