Dearest Family and Friends,
Not much to report
this week but a lot of teaching and finding others to teach. Hermana Player (my
companion) and I have a new investigator named Andrea. She attended church last
week and we met with her this Friday. When we talked with her, we taught the
restoration and she said she related to Joseph Smith and his want for the
truth. She is so curious about our beliefs and I think she was shocked somewhat
because we were able to answer all of her questions. She has so many more and
we ran out of time but i cant wait to teach her again. She says she is trying
to find that one true church so I'm so excited. She is currently reading in the
Book of Mormon.
This week me and my
companion have been working on talking with everyone. Sometimes it is very hard
because the nerves get to us. Both Hermana Player and I can be pretty shy and
so it can be a challenge to stop others on the street or even to knock. Working
with each other has been great because we have been able to challenge on
another. We have decided to take turns talking with others. Slowly I can see a
difference in how we work. We are talking to more people and sharing the
message with which we want to share. I want to tell as many people about this
gospel because it has made me so happy!
This week we also the
opportunity to attend Zone conference. While I was there, my testimony on
teaching by the spirit definitely increased. I know that when we teach, it
doesn't matter what we want to say or how we want to teach, but it is through the
spirit that we must learn to teach. We must allow the Holy Ghost to testify
through us of the fullness of this gospel and its truths. I'm so Happy to have
the opportunity to teach others of Gods love for them.
I love you all so
much and hope to hear from you soon! I hope all is well!
Love,
Hermana Gilchrist
