So The Tables Have Turned

Hey Everyone!

So my days in Pahrump are done. I am now in the Canyon Springs area. The top left corner of Las Vegas. You know how I told you about Elder Ebert a while ago? The really cool missionary that I went on exchanges with? Well now he is my companion. And I don't think I told you but I have got more and more responsibility as these transfers have gone by. 2 transfers ago I trained a greenie. Then last transfer I continued training and was called to be a district leader. Both of those were awesome experiences. And part of me was looking forward to being released and being a normal missionary. And president called and said thank you for your service Elder Law... I would like to call you to be a Zone leader. So that will be fun. I'm excited.

The last week of Pahrump was so good. We had so many miracles and finding new people and getting ready for a baptism this next upcoming Saturday. Elder Windham, my greenie was called to be the district leader and a trainer. I'm so proud of that kid. And with all the people that we found and taught Elder Windham and his new missionary will be spoiled. I'll share two really cool experiences from last week.

So we got a text from Keily saying she didn't want to see us anymore. We went by and she started off seeming upset with us but after talking with her for a while it turned out that her boyfriend was trying to push her away from us. We talked to her and she committed to coming to church. It was so cool how the Lord helped us to turn it from losing an investigator to her wanting to come to church.

The other was an appointment fell through and it was late at night and so we weren't sure what to do but we went and stopped by this less actives house and they didn't seem thrilled to see us but we talked to them and they said that she was thinking about coming to church and her nonmember husband Tony thought he should come to. They invited us in on the spot and we taught them a little but had to leave for another appointment. We went back two days later and he started off by saying that he was excited to come to church until he found out about us not approving gay marriage. So that was a great way to start off our first official lesson. But we testified to him of Gods love for us and that we love all people but we also follow whatever God says. By the end he was trying to convince his less active wife to go to church with him and she did. They came. That was the miracle of the week.

Alma 31

5 And now, as the preaching of the word had a great tendency to lead the people to do that which was just—yea, it had had more powerful effect upon the minds of the people than the sword, or anything else, which had happened unto them... 

Testifying of Christ's gospel has an effect on people. It has been neat to be a part of these miracles. God can really turn the tables if we put our trust in him. I love you and have a great week!
