Whereeeee should I start... I don't even know... this
week... has been CRAZY. The Lord has been blessing us so much. As
we've been trying to find new investigators... and trying to prepare
others for baptism, we have been so amazed to see how the Lord
literally... just... hands us blessings sometimes. There is a scripture
that keeps coming to mind...
"Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed"
I
honestly... feel like we are watching the arm of God be revealed. We
had an opportunity to leave our area on one day this week to help with a
youth fireside in another area where they have no sister missionaries.
We tried our best to use the travel time effectively. Annnnnd. We
also talked about how the Lord would bless us and our area, even though
we wouldn't be there! When we were about 5 minutes from the church, on
our way back from the activity thing, we got a phone call from the
Elders... someone had just walked into the church and wanted to learn!
You would be amazed... if I had enough time to relay all of the amazing
miracles that happen. It's insane. But it really is the arm of the
Lord being revealed. It's incredible!!
This
week... we were so blessed... to get a lot more investigators! Wowza.
As people have been getting baptized we've been trying to find and find
and find! We still do our 2 hours of inviting people to be baptized
every day! Annnnnnd. Again. It's just amazing the blessings the Lord
has poured out on Don Mueang. We had so many investigators at church.
Man. It was kinda stressful :) Buuuut in the best way possible! :)
I'm so excited for all of these new investigators!
The
BEST part of the week. Was definitely Sunday! When Brother Day, a
really awesome investigator, got baptized!! Wowza. You guys he is so
cool, Sister Mac and I decided he should get his own "I'm a Mormon"
video... haha... Brother Day is... a boxer? Some sort of boxer. But,
he is Thai... but usually lives in Australia. He was back here for a
couple of months... and in that time... he walked up to some
missionaries who were inviting. Annnnnd... learned with us. And got
baptized! Wow. He has amazing desires to know the truth. He reads and
studies, and really tries to understand everything. I think he may
have studied for his interview a little bit! Haha... even though we
told him he didn't need to study anything! But. It was an awesome day
to be able to get to see him baptized. Wow!!!!! I hate that I'm so bad
at describing everything! It really was amazing though!
Just
a funny story from Sunday too... afterward... our Branch president was
talking to our companionship and Brother Day! He mentioned that my
singing sounded good (I did a musical number for the baptism) and
Brother Day turned to me and said "Yeah, that sounded beautiful Sister
Croft. What language was that?" Haha... I think I maybe made a crazy
face and then repeated the question. Our Branch President laughed and
said... "It was in Thai" and then he said to us in English "I like this
guy, he's innocent!" Hahaha. So maybe my Thai still needs a little
work. But if it was perfect... I'd never have any of these golden
moments.
Another
funny thing. Yesterday someone was again talking to me in English and
said "I like your hair color Sister Croft. It's not like... gray...
it's more like... green." I love Thailand :) I really really do. It
is the BEST! :)
The
church is TRUE! Wow. I wish you could know all of these awesome
investigators and members. They are wonderful. Wow. We are INCREDIBLY
blessed.
Have a wonderful week! I love you all!
Love,
Sister Croft
