Week #96



Hello Everyone,
This week was a wet on, just like every rainy season constantly wet....all the time. But i love it and wouldn't rather be anywhere else. This week was a trying one for us. We are plugging through our area knocking on every single house and doing our best to make sure that NOBODY gets missed. It feels so good riding down a street knowing you have talked to every single person on that street. I love this work! I got to say goodbye to my three most favorite families in Suriname on Tuesday in Koewarasan it was a pleasure to work with all of them. Our area is doing really well. This week we were able to meet what seemed to be a lot of cool people. I'm grateful to be able o look and find them. there are so miracles happening here as members become more and more converted. I've never seen the branch more converted and connected together. They are all going on a branch camp out this weekend. So I am excited for hem all to go and bond together. Our investigator radjes is doing really well. He knows it's true and got his answer. He will be coming to church with his family this upcoming Sunday so we are pumped for that! We love teaching him and it's so fun to teach someone who has been prepared by the lord and it's also cool because he is really the only person progressing out of the 500 people we have contacted in that area. Was it worth all the rejections to get to him? OF course it was. The Lord led us to him and will be getting on a date on Tuesday.  Y spiritual experience this week was a good one. This week talking to Hindu's all week was for sure numbing. I don't know what it is abut it but it really brought me down. Yesterday evening we were able to teach our investigator radjes. He is a Hindu who has been converted to Christianity because we have been able to answer his questions. We taught him about the plan of salvation and it was exactly the breath of fresh air I needed to pick me back up. I love this gospel and it is so perfect. This transfer we have not seen too much success but the Lord is teaching me what it means to be obedient and I have learned this week that the true test of our love for the Lord is willingness to be obedient even when the Lord does not provide you with baptisms. I have felt God's love for me as I have strove to do things because i love Him!
