This week was another great one. Every week just gets busier and
busier. It amazes me how much the Lord blessed us :) Obedience truly
brings blessing. I think I say that a lot but it's so true! Well we
had an amazing week!!!!
Henry got baptized!!! :) The baptism went soooo good, we didn't have
to do anything. All our plans worked very well and the members did
very well. There was 40 people who came and supported him, and there
were 7 non-members as well :) It was so good. At the end Henry bore
his testimony and shared a great experience he had. He came to the
United States 3 years ago and he was in culture shock. He didn't have
a lot of friends but he always felt that someone was there helping him
and comforting him. He said that he didn't know who it was but already
wondered. He said that when he met the sisters he knew that it was God
and Jesus Christ all along. He knows that They love him and love all
of us as well :) It was so amazing. He has such a great testimony
already. I'm so happy for him!! The spirit was there :) Yesterday he
got confirmed and received the gift of the Holy Ghost. We asked him
how he felt afterwards and he said he felt warm inside. It was
awesome!! The Lord is bringing His children back to him!
So last Sunday we were out tracting and if you remember I talked about
the story how we met the guy and we saw him a few times before as
well. His name is Chris and we met with him on Friday. He is so
prepared!! He had three pretty big spiritual experiences that he
shared with us that happened during our lesson. He said yes to be
baptized on August 6!! He is so sincere and wants to know the truth :)
Its amazing! I love having the opportunity to help people come closer
to Christ.
Those were just some of the highlights this week. The work here in
State College is doing very well, the Lord is blessing us so much.
I've never been so busy my entire mission. I love the work so much and
I know that this is His mission!! I know the church is true and I'm so
grateful for it :) I love you all so much!
Last night Sister Wenztel and I were talking about how much we have
grown in the past couple of transfers. It's amazing how much one can
change in this short amount of time. I love the Lord and I am truly
willing to whatever He asks of me. I am nervous and sad to come home
but that is what the Lord wants. He has us serve this amount of time
for a reason. I know that there will be many more great experience now
and in the future. I'm so grateful for the time I have had to grow
closer to my Savior. The atonement is so real which I am indeed
grateful for. These past 18months of my life have been life changing.
It's been amazing to see the transformation the Lord has helped me
make. I am excited to work as hard as I can and have no regrets!!
Missionary work is the best.
Love,
Sister Wadsworth
