Everyone!
So, I love my new area.
We were just driving around trying people, and had ran out
of ideas. We were looking in our LA book for people and Elder
Carter wanted to try someone that he had wanted to try for a while.
We knocked, and this lady opened, we introduced ourselfs, she let
us in for a quick drink of water, and we got talking...it was the day
after the bat man came out...so as ya'll know the crazy man killed
lots of people. She knew people in Colorado and had lived there for a
time. She lived in the area when combine happened as well.
There are a lot of crazy people there. Anyways, she made sure everyone
she knew from there was fine, and then for the first time in years had
prayed. Her husband was the LA we had stopped by for, so she has an
interesting religious backround. We talked about lots of things,
how she met him, how he fell from the church, what she thought of the
chruch, and everything. Then once it felt right (as we usually try to
do), we asked if we could kneel in prayer, she agreed, I gave
it. She cried, and was so thankful. We left, later that day she
asked when and where church was, and then when we went to chruch a
couple of days later she came, and i sat by her, but she had a friend
from a near by ward with her that did all the talking, that i found
out later was a RM herself).
Every talk was EXACTLY what she needed,
and her friend Sister Zygart (yes i know, cool name), told me later that
Erin Geaton (and her daughter) felt the spirit during every talk, and
felt so peaceful. The rest of church was great, and they signed
up on our dinner calender, so we will teach them then. We will take
it slow because she wants us too. I am sooo excited to teach
Sister Geaton and her husband. The RM sister Zygart called us and
cried, she was so happy, she told us that it was such a miracle that we
came that day, at that time and everything. That
was THE day that she needed us to show up. She also said that Erin
was more prepared, or golden, then anyone she had ever met. Erin
had called her and told her that she had drank a little beer and asked
if that was bad. So we are doing well here.
Have a good day everyone,
Elder Bleazard
