The Lord's Arm

This week has flown by in the blink of an eye! I can't believe it! It was such a packed week that we lost track of the days. So the greatest news from this week was with our investigator Kimberly. She is married to an excommunicated member of the church. A few weeks ago she decided that they needed to start going to church, so they came to ours. She came first by herself and then she brought her husband. We have been teaching her the last week and we invited her to be baptized. She accepted, and we set a date for February 10th! It has been such a miracle. The coolest part about all of this is not just that kimberly wants to be baptized, but that she is bringing her excommunicated husband, Hawk, back as well. They have both been actively involved in church and in our visits with them. It is so amazing to see them both progressing together. I can't wait to see them eventually get sealed in the temple one day. 

So last transfer we had 0 people in the zone get baptized. At the beginning of this transfer we gathered as a zone and set a baptismal goal of 3 for this transfer. We had no one on date for baptism at that point. This whole transfer we have been praying for miracles as a zone and we have seen the Lord's outpouring of blessings. As of right now we have 3 baptisms scheduled for February 10th as a zone! It has all come within this last week as well. Heavenly Fathered has answered our prayers and has guided us to his children whom he has prepared to his this wonderful message of joy. It brings to mind the scripture

"Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do althings that lie in our powerand then may
we stand still, with the utmosassurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed"

We have definitely seen the Lord's arm guiding us as a zone this transfer. I love you all!

Love,
