Great Week, indeed! Elder Hall got a new companion, had a baptism and performed the confirmation, and another wonderful story of how God blesses us through others.
Subject: Great Week!
This last week was great. On Wednesday I got Elder Huffman. He’s funny and hardworking and oddly enough we share the same birthday. He’s been out almost a year (this Thursday is his year mark) and he is from Gilbert, Arizona.
On Thursday we had a cool experience. We were going to some apartments in our area for a lesson, we got there, they cancelled, so we decided to knock around. The first one we knocked let us in. A guy named Nick who was confined to his bed said he had been waiting for us for weeks, and he wanted to get baptized. It was cool, haha, we’ve been teaching him now, he’s an awesome guy.
On Saturday Kat got baptized! It was wonderful. We first taught Kat my first day in the area, so back in early August. She’s awesome. On Sunday at church I had the opportunity to confirm her a member of the church.
One thing that stands out to me a lot is obedience. I love obedience, it brings happiness, and I know that keeping God’s commandments will bring us great blessings.
Doctrine & Covenants Section 130
20 There is a law, irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world, upon which all blessings are predicated
21 And when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated.Love y’all,
Elder Hall
