I wanted to let you know of two small miracles, or tender mercies that have happened here at least in our companionship.
We met this lady in a block and not much came of her, but she told us there was a man two floors down from her door who would be interested in our message, so we went to try to find him. A young woman answered the door and we asked to talk to the man, but he didn’t live there anymore. So we asked to talk to the young woman, but she didn’t live there either. So, we tried to set up an appointment with her, but she took our restoration pamphlet and said she would call us. it was sad for me, because she seemed really open. But we moved on.
Then while passing out fliers 3 to 4 weeks later, I see her randomly and she comes up to me and says "I still want to meet with you, when can we meet?" so we set up a week from that day, and I forgot to get her number...so I was sad and thought she would probably forget, but we prayed and when we got there, she was waiting patiently! We brought the sisters with us and then had a lesson, which went so well! She had all the right questions, and desires to know the truth! The sisters are currently having a lesson with her right now! She needs to be baptized!
ok story number two is that we knocked into this other lady around the middle of last transfer, and she seemed interested, but she wouldn’t let us in...We talked with her at the door for a good 15 minutes and then invited her to come to church the next day. She then said sure...but didn’t come. We tried to visit her again a few times but she was never home. Then last week (at least a month later)... she calls us up and says she wants us to come over that night...so we did, and had a decent lesson with her. She has a desire to change and needs the church in her life. She is a Baptist, but said the first time we talked to her (at the door) she felt something so powerful, that it has been on her mind ever since we were there...for about a month! We are now waiting for a second meeting! But she called us! It is so amazing!
