I really don't know where to start with this week. There have been blessing falling outa the sky for us. To start off, Daleen is actually doing really well. We are going to try and set a baptismal date for the 23rd. She has made it clear she wants to be baptized and she hasn't smoked in3 days! The Lord through her reading and praying and efforts in coming to church is giving her the spiritual and physical power and strength to overcome her chanllenges. It has made me so happy to see here progress and just live the gospel. She has even invited her friend Larry to start listening to us and we've taught him twice, he came to church with Daleen yesterday and its amazing how prepared he is! The best way to describe Larry is that he's Hungry to learn and absorb the gospel. Come to find out hes been looking for a church to go to but he said he just doesn't feel the spirit anywhere. and He has made it clear that when he reads the Book of Mormon alongside the Bible he can feel God. The two of them right now are kind of a package deal, the are really helping each other progress and the gospel is blessing both of their lives right now. Daleen even had the idea to take Larry to the visitors center so we'll let you know how that goes.
Crazy thing happened this week o top of all this, Elder Blasko came to surprise me! He came found us where we were at a service project and just spent some time talking. It was so cool to see him as Ben, he was such a good trainor and an even better friend to me at the start of my mission. Its nice to have a bond with an old companion like the one we have. He didn't have a whole lot of time to spend with us but the time we did have with him was awesome and it was spirit filled. It just let me see just how fast these two years are going by and it makes me appreciate every minute of it all.
There are a few people that kinda popped out of no where this week and were pretty interested in what we had to share so I'll make sure to keep y'all updated as people progress, but as for now, thank you all for the prayers, just keep praying for Daleen and now Larry. They are definitely The Lords Elect! Gotta Go, but just know that I am doing darn good and that I am happy to be here sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and The Message of the Restoration with my brothers and Sisters.
I Love You guys! Thanks for the emails too, until next week, Godspeed!
Love, Elder Page
