This has been a really interesting week. The end of the week was the best.
Just when things were going good with our companionship, the boat tipped a little. Seams like we are still on different pages but not that many pages away from each other.
Wednesday June 1, 2011: HAPPY BIRTHDAY VERONICA!!!!
Thursday June 2, 2011: The evening was the best part of the day. We stopped by a less active member, Barbara, she came out and we had an amazing lesson with her. We were going to teach the Restoration, but switched to the Plan of Salvation, but it turned out we talked about the temple a bunch. We found out that she really misses the temple and wants to go back. We also found out that she left the church because of a bad marrage relationship. We asked her to come to church on Sunday and she said yes.
Friday June 3, 2011: We had an awesome lesson with Rita and her son Toby. We taught...I don't even remember what we taught but it was such a good lesson. I think I wrote it down in my journal so it's in there. But the lesson, whatever it was, was really good. Toby accepted a date to be baptized on July 17. He wants to get baptized in the river, that would be super cool.
Saturday June 4, 2011: We had another amazing lesson. We taught Willie (LA, I think). He's 19 and a really cool guy. We get along with him really well. He has the same vision as most Detroiters, "I want to make a ton of money but I don't want to work for it." For the last few months he's been selling weed to get some cushion cash. At first he was being really stubborn but towards the end he was seeing where we were coming from and loosened up a bit. We committed him to not sell weed any more and to give us his weed so he wouldn't have it anymore. He gave it to us. It wasn't that much, $20 worth. We got back to the apartment and flushed it. I still can't believe that he actually gave it to us.
Sunday June 5, 2011: Rita came to church but Toby got called into work. Sister Smith was there too!! It was great to have them there with us. After church we had a really good lesson with Candice. She openned up a bit more and I think that she felt the spirit very strong.
That's about it for the week. It as a nice week. I'm glad that I was able to help those people feel the spirit.
