It was another wonderful week full of work here in Christchurch New Zealand!
The week with my companion breaking a glass bowl, cleaning it up, but then my foot finding the ONLY piece neglected to be cleaned... it was a few centimeters long and went all the way into the arch of my foot. I quickly pulled it out and it started bleeding a lot. Needless to say my foot has been pretty sore this week.
Kathy, our investigator is still progressing and planning to be baptized! We love her and the lessons with her are always very spiritual and uplifting. She is so sweet and sincere! I feel so blessed to have the privilege to teach her and watch her grow in her faith of the Restored Gospel.
This week we went to follow up on a potential we met about a month ago. We had tried numerous times to contact him and could never catch him. Well 7:30 pm rolls around and our designated lesson was not home so we went to see our potential, Joey as a backup. HE WAS HOME, and even more than that so were his 3 flat-mates! We taught a powerful restoration lesson. They all had other faiths so it made it pretty easy to discuss Jesus Christ but when we read Moroni's promise in the Book of Mormon with them a sweet spirit filled the room and the woman reading paused and was really touched by the sincerity of the words. We left 4 Books of Mormon and they all committed to read it! We are really excited to teach them the Plan of Salvation!
To wrap up a great week it was Conference weekend here in New Zealand! I think this was one of the most powerful overall conferences I have witnessed! Every talk was so relevant to me and my situation and i had many questions answered! The speakers were so divinely appointed, and there topics so good! I love conference and being able to sustain and be spiritually fed by our prophet and apostles!
Yesterday, our P-day my companion had the flu, which is why I am emailing today. Boredom has never been so hard for me as sitting in a missionary flat ALL DAY LONG! I came up with some pretty interesting things to entertain myself but I am stoked to get out and about this week and work!
Love, Sister Golden
