Mission Miracle from Elder Cody Holmes

June 2, 2009

On Tuesday night, we got home and started planning and I got this really huge desire to teach these people that we have met while playing softball. Earlier I had given them some invitations to our English classes and I had just gotten the sudden desire to teach them the gospel. I started to get restless and wanted to just go find them at that moment at like 9:45 at night but we couldn’t leave the house so my companion and I decided to kneel down and pray so that we could find them in the city and have an opportunity to teach them the Gospel. Well, literally 10 minutes later, we got a text from one of them, and it was a sister of one of the guys we invited to English. We called her back and talked a little on the phone and set up a discussion with her and her brother for the next day. It was really cool to see the Lord's help in bringing them to us. And even better, we have seen at least 7 of them in the past week and now two are learning the gospel from my companion and me and another companionship is teaching another one of the boys from the softball thing. The Lord truly wants to bless us when we have a desire and are worthy of the blessings.
