Miracles

This was a really good week.  Sorry I'm emailing early :)  I gotta go ride some elephants.

When I stop and think about this week.  I'm sure that there are a million miracles that happened that I don't even know about.  But all of it cammme together in one great Sunday.  We had 3 people get baptized in our branch.  One of them was named Nam, one was named Rat, one was named Nano.  They are all incredible.  I'll just tell you some more about them.

Nam.  Is awesome.  She is the one that walked into the church and who went to a catholic church more than she went to Buddhist temples.  Man she is awesome.  She is someone that God definitely prepared to get baptized.  When she bore her testimony she told us about how she first started to be interested in the Lord when she was like 14.  Ad that led her to the catholic church... and then eventually led her to the fullness of the gospel.  She prayed that she would be able to find the truth, and she found this church!  She really is incredible, and it was awesome to see her get baptized this week.

Brother Rat is amazing too! :)  He is such a funny guy.  He's such a sincere and nice person.  When you teach him he looks very intently at you, and then he reads the scriptures with a desire to understand and learn from them.  He is so funny.  He met some challenges with his family in getting baptized, but I am so proud of him for making the decision by himself to get baptized this week.  He is amazing and I am so happy for him!

Sister NaNo, wasn't our investigator, but Sister Mac and I got the chance to talk with her and teach her several informal lessons to help her prepare for baptism.  She is awesome.  She was a little bit nervous about being baptized.  But she had courage!  And I can tell that she sees a light in the gospel and in the people at the church that maybe she hasn't had a lot of chance to see other places.  I'm so happy for her too!  :)

The church is true!  I'm so grateful to know that.  I'm grateful for the commandments.  I'm grateful for the Savior, and I'm grateful for the Savior's promise and plea to us to let Him help us.  He says He will gather us as a hen gathereth her chickens.  He says "will ye not now return unto me, and repent of your sins, and be converted, that I may heal you?"  He is our Savior.

I love you all :)

Have a wonderful week!

Love,
Sister Croft
