Anyway this week was really great. We set a baptismal date with this man named P. He is a fisherman and he is super!
We
had an appointment fall through so we talked to the first person that
we saw. This person was named T. we taught T a lesson and just
before we said the prayer his friend named P shows up out of
no where grabs that brochure that T was holding and starts to read it
and then starts asking tons of questions. T had to leave but we
continued to teach P. He was so excited and had never talked to
missionaries before. At the end we asked him to pray and ask God if our
message was true. So, naturally he stretches out his arms and starts
praying. He asks a very fervent prayer and asks God to give him an
answer if this was true that very day. After the prayer the Spirit was
so strong. He just kept rubbing his arms and showing us his goosebumps
and saying, "Do you feel that? That's incredible. What is this?!" We
explained it was the Holy Ghost. Then he asked if he could be baptized.
HAHAHA! So yesterday we set a baptismal date with him for the 15th of February. It's so cool to see how some people are just prepared.
This week I have gotten
a lot better at pushing myself to work hard and to push myself to the
limit and not fall back into old bad lazy habits. That's hard for me and
for some reason I have always had a really hard time at motivating
myself. But I feel like I am slowly overcoming that. I thought about how
after we are resurrected we will have perfect bodies. What I am most
excited about that is that I won't have to deal with fatigue, not being able to focus or
having to push myself SO hard to work.
This week will be zone
conference and I am very excited for that. It is always so motivating and
exciting.
I love you all and have a GREAT week!!!
love, Sister Katrina Hawkes
