Hey fam,
It's clear skies and sunshine today, with a high of 67! I can't
believe it's January with weather like this, however I am
jealous of
you snowboarders out there.
Richard got baptized this week! I am just so amazed! Hahaha when
the
sisters first met him a while back he would always yell at them
and
told them that they weren't Christian but just a couple months
ago in
November when we talked to him, We got his number, invited him
to
church, and he loved it! It was so funny because every lesson we
would
start off with him he would be totally against it at first, but
as we
explained things to him, and he asked questions he understood
why, and
by the end of the lesson he would be 110% cool with it. No joke.
It's
amazing what the gospel can do. Now the elders tell us that he
is
being an awesome missionary and inviting everyone he sees to
church
and to listen to the missionaries.
If you all remember Bobby, he is the guy that we always have to
bike
up monstrous hills to see, but then ended up not being
interested. His
brother got baptized the same day as Richard! And so now a
member who
is friends with his mom said that his mom (her name is Ann) wants
us
to teach her! So we gonna take on some monstrous hills this
week.
Bring it on.
Ok let's see what else's happened..... hopefully you all are
interested in hearing about these people. They all are so
amazing and
they teach me things everyday. Speaking of that! We saw Jason
again
this week! Twice! And he came to church! I don't think he
realizes how
interested in the gospel he is. When we were teaching him the
restoration this week, and we told him about Joseph smiths first
vision. He said, "wait a second, so Joseph Smith wasn't
looking to
start a church, he just wanted to know which one was true."
The spirit
hit me like a ton of bricks. Even though I have taught the
restoration, and have said the same thing that Jason has said to
so
many people, and I knew it was true before. I could feel that he
knew
it was true, and he was able to reconfirm to me that this is
Christ's
true church on the earth today, because it was formed by man. It
was
restored through a humble prophet of God.
I just think its miraculous the way we find people here in
Rowland
Heights. Every area is different. That's for sure. But in
Rowland
Heights we talk with EVERYONE. Even if they don't speak English.
We
try to speak Spanish or Chinese or Korean as best we can to
them. I
know the Lord sees our efforts and the true intents of our
hearts in
everything that we do. All we have to do is look for those
moments he
gives us to lift someone up and to share with them that which
they
stand in need of.
We will be going to the temple this Saturday with Joseph! Also
it's
transfer calls this week. Sister Zollinger really want to stay
together just one more!!
Hope you all have good week! Be warm. Remember who you are.
Sister
Plumb
