WOOO!! Framingham is Awesome!
This week elder Bagley and I really had to sit down and talk about how were going to see miracles in Framingham. Now this Area is a lot different then my last one . Out in Revere Their are a lot of ghettos . Not here... We have almost knocked on all the doors in this one ghetto part of town. For weekly planning we came up with some ideas that we could try to get investigators. So we brought all these ideas to ward council yesterday. One of these ideas was a fireside on member missionary work. Instead I told the bishop/Ward council that we could just do it this upcoming Sunday for a class. We will be having everyone except the little kids join us for this lesson. Now the Bishop was a little bit stunned that I said we would be willing to do this with such short notice. But hey like it says in PMG(Preach My Gospel) you can't do anything until you find someone to teach. So we really want the members to go and do some missionary work. Invite there friends. But will see how it goes. I know it will be great and we will have an awesome lesson.
This week we also taught Lynn and we had an awesome lesson on Baptism and Confirmation. Except we couldn't finish it. But that's alright. Lynn Will be one of those investigators where it will take a while for her to get baptized. She doesn't want to get pushed. But she is really progressing. She is trying to read the Book of Mormon all the way through. Last time we talked she was on Jacob. She writes down everything she learns in her notebook and always comes to us with a few questions. Besides Lynn we mostly were finding investigators this past week. This last Saturday we set a goal of contacting 30 people. We contacted 26. But we saw some blessings from our works. We picked up this guy named Frank and gave him a Jesus Christ DVD. Were planning to meet with him this weekend. Another blessing was yesterday. Elder Bagley and I are walking to our next class and then a lady from our ward came up to us and said hey this is my friend and she is investigating the church. Her and her son and we want to have dinner with all of you next Sunday. In my head I was like WWWWOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Lets gooooooo!!!!! so were gonna pick them up this week.
Now a few days ago we brought out Lynn's son who is a member. His name is Tony. He has been through a lot of things in his life. Because of stuff in his past he hurt his head and now he has Photographic memory. He read the Book of Mormon in 2 and a half hours and the bible in 3. He is a genius and he has a huge testimony of the Book of Mormon. He explained to us how people are extremely curios. When we give a Book Of Mormon out to someone they might just throw it on there book shelf or in a closet. But Humans being so curious sometime or another they will read it. I know that the Book Of Mormon is the convincing power of the divinity of Christ and his love for the people on earth. I know that the Book Of Mormon is the Keystone of our religion and that through its teachings we will be able to return to our heavenly father and I can promise that. Love yall
