Boldly bearing testimony!


It has been a tough week... All three of our baptisms didn't happen, they all cancelled about 3 days days before the day. So it was hard, we ate a lot of chocolate that day, it helped, the good news is that 2 of them should be baptized this Saturday. Selam and Yassmin, they came to the Christmas Party and Church, and everything is planned for their baptism so pray it happens. Terence, the other date is struggling. His family does not approve of him getting baptized. He is 27 years old and realizes it is his own decision, but it could ruin the relationship with the family. He wants to get baptized, but wants his families support as well. 
This week I had a fun experience with the Irish on Thursday. I was speaking to a guy at the train station, he was from Ireland and got a little upset about why God would need to reveal more scripture and basically everyone in the station ended up listening to our conversion, even my companion and the man he was speaking to listened in. I bore my testimony,our train came I left him a card and got on the train, sat next to a lady and started speaking with her.. .she was Irish as well.. at first she was very nice, but then she started freaking out about Joseph Smith and The Book of Mormon and that it is all a joke.. everyone on that coach of the train was also able to hear our conversation as well. I loved it. I don't care what the situations is, boldly bearing your testimony about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon is something people can't really argue with. Even though I got made fun of and yelled at, I know the Book of Mormon is true and I know Joseph Smith is a prophet, and I know the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the only true and living church on the earth today, and everyone at the  train station and on that coach of the train now knows what I know to be true. I love being here, I love my Savior and I'm glad He has Restored his Church back on the earth today in these last days.  I love you all, thanks for your prayers and support!! Cheers!!
