this past week, not much happened. Our most eventful day was Wednesday. We went on splits with a couple Elders Quorum members. It was fun. Elder Kienitz went with Mike Gast (A less-active whom we have recently been able to re-activate), and I went with Brother Windsor. Combined, we were able to get 5 member present lessons and found 3 new investigators within 2 hours.
Brother Windsor was so fun to be with. when we got back home, he gave me a hug and told me that I was an amazing man and I was going far in life. It was a well needed boost.
Friday night, I got a call from another missionary in the zone. He asked if he could come over to our house and talk a little bit. So long story short, He cane over and him and I went outside. He just started crying and asked me why it was so hard. He said he doesn't even know for himself if what he is teaching is true.
I told him that I had a similar feeling about 6 months ago. I told him about Grandpa dying and about how furious I was at God. But then I hit my knees and prayed. After that night, I can never again deny the existence of our Heavenly Father. It is no longer faith, It is a sure knowledge. Anyway, I got him talked down and I committed him to go home and pray his heart out. we hugged and went back inside. I have kept a close eye on him the fast few days, calling and texting him. He seems to be doing better today. I don't know why everyone comes to me with there problems... haha Oh well. I love helping.
Hope ya'll are doing alright! Till next week,
Elder Taylor Alston
