We had an amazing week!!! We just saw so many miracles. I feel more fulfilled than I have felt my whole mission.
Our investigator, Brad Peterson, was originally scheduled for baptism for May 9th, but due to really struggling with quitting his chewing habits, his date is postponed for the 23rd. We had an incredible lesson with him this week, and the spirit taught through us with power. We talked a lot of faith, and how acting in faith precedes the miracle. We promised him that if he would go to God in prayer and commit tonight to stop chewing, God would then strengthen him and give him more clear answers to his prayers. He committed right then and there to do so. :) He also promised he would read the Book of Mormon every day, from the beginning, and pray about it.
Also, we have a new investigator with another part-member family! (We have been seeing so much success with the part-member families!) His name is Matt Marquez; he has taken the lessons before, but he felt very pushed by the ward members before he even knew the church was true. We are really going to help him to see how he can find the truth for himself.
Our miracle comes in that we have definitely felt like we have been led by the Spirit this week. It is the most fulfilling feeling in the world!
Thank you so much for all you do, for all your prayers, and for all your preparation each day.
Love,
Sister Budge
