Things are going pretty good! We had tons of challenges here this week especially, we had 2 baptisms planned and unfortunately neither has happened. One of the people that was going to be baptized has owns a business and works a ton, we literally have been calling her trying to plan, passing by her work and doing all possible to help her have time. She did have about twenty minutes to talk to us and tell us that she has a desire to be baptized. She would like to have a couple hours to relax and be baptized. She has a huge testimony, but the challenges don’t seem to end. Today we are going to see if we can help her and possibly have her baptism tonight. Satan works hard on the people that are preparing to be baptized. It’s been really hard for me, because we can only do so much.
And the other investigator doesn’t have the desire to be baptized anymore. I guess other people have talked her out of it. We are going to continue to help her and hope for the best. I honestly feel like we are working very hard and obeying. This will help me work harder and focus more, the Lord knows everything, and knows why we are struggling right now, why the majority of our investigators aren’t progressing, He has a purpose for everything and it really helps to realize I can’t do anything without him. Pray for the people here, for the investigators please! We really need them to progress and come to church. All your prayers really can help. I know this is going to be a great week for all of us! Just keep smiling and have an awesome week.
