Season 10 Episode 2 - September 5, 2016

This was an awesome week. We have had miracles for days. This last Tuesday we had a pretty miraculous lesson. We were just going by to see a potential investigator and talked to a lady outside. She was nice and listened to us. So that was awesome. That is miracle number one.
Wednesday-
We had a good district meeting. It went really well. This was my first time being with only sisters so that was weird. But our meeting went really well. Then later that night we have been trying to make progress with one of the people we are teaching. She has just not been moving forward. She is super nice,  just never was committed. We felt like we should invite her to take the lessons. She actually lives by a ton of members. So we
were going to go by and introduce her to her neighbors. The first members we went to are super solid but they were just heading out the door. They said we should try them next time. We thought we will just try by the investigator’s house. Then a new member that just moved in was outside so we talked with him and found out that he was a convert. We asked him if he would do us a favor and come with us and introduce himself. He said yes and they really hit it off. We invited her to take the lessons. She said yes. So that was miracle number two.
Thursday-
Nothing too crazy happened this day. Our appointments kept canceling again this week. We had members to come with us and everything, but the lesson just fell through.
Friday-
We had a really weird day. We had a DLC and then we had to take elders we live with the the doctor. That took forever. Then we planned for the week.
Saturday-
We did a lot of service. We helped this guy move. Then we had like a couple of hours to work then we did a zone service. We removed dead stuff from a camp site. We had a great idea to remove a giant tree. The tree probably weighed about 1000 pounds. We broke it and moved it away.
Sunday-
This is the most important miracle. We had a great fast Sunday. We set up a lesson with Susanna, the investigator I mentioned earlier. Wow! what a solid lesson. She loves to talk and doesn't have very many friends. So we brought over some friends and she loved it. We taught the restoration.  Then my boy, Elder Brown, invited her to be baptized. She said she would!! She is now on date for October 8th. It was amazing. Elder Brown did so well for not having a lot of teaching appointments since he has been out and he killed it! It was a huge relief. We have had a few tough months here and
this makes it all worth it. The Ward hasn't had a baptism for a year or more. So this will help them on so much!

Love Elder Astle
