Serving in Texas: July 28, 2014

All your work in the whole week seems like it comes down to your Sunday sometimes. I know its bad to think that but that's how I feel sometimes and this week I feel like all my work and effort payed off and we saw the fruits of our labors. The Lord was definitely blessing Elder Argyle and I. We had 6 investigators at church this week!!! What a great blessing. Right when you start to feel like there is little hope the Lord gives you strength when you need it the most.

Sundays are stressful too because you do everything you can so that your investigators have an uplifting experience and feel the spirit. this week I entertained two little boys so that their moms could pay attention to the speakers. I missed everything in sacrament but the women really, really loved it!! Elder Argyle said that the speakers talked on women hood and it was one of the best sacrament he has been to. I will glad make that sacrifices for our investigators to feel the spirit. All are investigators that we had were women so it was perfect meeting for them.
We also got the baptism program planned out for (Sadie)!! She is so ready and we are so excited!! I will be speaking at the baptism and Elder Argyle will preform the baptism! I'm so happy for both of them because (Sadie) has changed her life for the Lord and this Elder Argyle's first baptism. How great shall be your joy! D&C 18:15-16 She has been really welcomed into the ward. She has even been considered a member already. We are expecting a lot at her baptism!!
I'll let you know how it goes next week!!
