List of Miracles

This week was great! Here are a couple cool miracles this week:

1. We had a second appointment with a new investigator, Jorge, and we had challenged him to read the Restoration Pamphlet. When we went back this last Saturday, he told us that he's been in an overly happy mood all week long, and it has something to do with us. He said he read the whole pamphlet (even though we only challenged him to read 2 pages) because he liked the feeling it gave him. We explained that he was beginning to recognize the Holy Ghost, and explained that the Holy Ghost helps us find spiritual truth. He opened up his pamphlet and had answered all of the "Additional Study" questions in the back of the pamphlet, and asked if we could give him the Book of Mormon. He said if a small pamphlet could help him feel like spirit so strong, he wants to read the Book of Mormon.

He's totally in the House of Israel. (That's not funny to anyone but me... sorry.)

2. We were waiting for a bus, and when it came, it was just us and the bus driver. He turned around and asked us what we can do to fix a broken heart. He had been through a lot of rough life changes lately. His Girlfriend cheated on him, he has health problems, his family is falling apart... etc. He told us it was no coincidence that we showed up on his bus at that time. We said we wouldn't be able to teach him on the bus, but we know how to help with a broken heart, and that if he would give us some contact information, we would send missionaries to his house to teach him. He said he had been praying for some sort of sign, and we were the answer.

(background information, we only got on that bus because Elder Broman and I felt prompted to visit a member that brought us close to his bus route. We had no reason to visit that member, but both decided to check up on him for whatever reason. Traveling to his house brought us to that bus driver. We were way far from where we had planned to go... But that's where we were needed.)

3. We had a baptism yesterday! It was the first baptism in this area for 3 years. We have two more coming up this month. The rest of our mission calls San Francisco "Sodom and Gomorrah" because it's know for being ridiculous, but we've seen nothing but miracles for weeks.

Love you all
