Howdy From Texas!

Hey there:) it has been an amazing week. Let me tell about the miracles from this week. God has perfect timing and I am witnessing his hand in his amazing work that I am privileged to be a part of. Daisy, she is someone we were teaching right when I got to gilmer at the beginning of December. Sadly her mother passed away and she asked us not to visit her anymore. It was hard but we knew it would open doors to share the gospel. We stopped by the last week but she was busy and we set up to come back on Tuesday. We went back on Tuesday and taught the plan of salvation and told her that her mother was waiting for her to accept the gospel so she could be baptized for her! We invited her to be baptized and she accepted, everyone pray for Daisy by name to be baptized on March 19th. Aimee, she is a daughter of a member and we found her also the beginning of December. She is very shy and told us that she has a hard time believing in God. We taught her about God's love and then we didn't...

We did an exchange that day with Elder Curtis! Elder Curtis and I served in the same district a year ago when I was in Terrell so it was fun to spend the day with him and we saw a lot of miracles! As we wer epullijg into Gilmer I got a prompting to go visit a former as we pulled up we saw this guy sitting in his car with his window down Nad we started talking to him and he was so cool we shared a scripture and went back on Saturday and had a lesson with him he seems interested but sadly he didn't come to church when he committed too so be praying for him his name is cj.

Well howdy there yall! Another great week in the great state of Texas, we had a interesting week! We were on exchange with the other Gilmer Elders we live with and put visiting people when we got a mesaage saying we had be inside asap from the first presidency we were all kind of stressing thinking we were going back into quarintine because of covid if it was from the first presidency. But it was just because of the weather! So we had to stay inside from Wednesday night until Saturday morning, it was fun with us four Elders but we were all going a little stir crazy! With us being inside we only had a couple lessons this week but Sunday was awesome we were really busy we visited a lot of people had awesome conversations with members and non members about Jesus Christ!  It brings me so much joy to testify of our Savior Jesus Christ everyday! I know he is my personal savior and he is your personal savior! He know you and how you are feeling, my studies in the Book of Mormon this week ...
