Flood

It rained a lot this week. For our district meeting we started another Book of Mormon Flood invitational. Our district minus the Zone leaders (they had to go to the other district meeting) gave away 58 Book of Mormons. There wasn't any real water flooding that I could see. 

We were able to find about three new investigators in a row on Tuesday. One of them was really cool, his name is Michael. His brother in Utah had been praying that he would run into the missionaries and we showed up 3 days later. We were able to teach him twice with a member that he knew already, but on Sunday he talked to his old preacher and then he dropped us. 

We went on exchanges with the Zone Leaders on Thursday. We usually both go into their area, and we did this time. We teamed up with the Bishop of the first ward and were able to teach a few less actives. It was amazing to watch the Authority that the Bishop had with the members. He would receive revelation on the spot.

We were able to start teaching Sherry and the Cervantes family again this week. We made big steps with both of them. Sherry is really just searching for a testimony of the Book of Mormon, and of Joseph Smith as a prophet. She loves our church. We asked the Cervantes family if they were ready to really investigate again and they said yes.

I really enjoy being a missionary, I am very happy most of the time. I am proud of my district and all of the good things that they do.

This week I learned about revelation, it is important to develop the gift of discernment as we receive revelation to be sure that it comes from god. Revelation is one most important things in the church.

Love,

Elder Keeley
