Well, it has been an outstanding week! We had a lot of
appointments and they all went well.
We met with Ferdinand twice this week. He still didn't understand why he needs to be
baptized again because he was baptized Catholic as a baby. It was pointless to move onto the next lesson
if he didn’t even understand the Restoration, so we taught the Restoration as
simply and clearly as we could. He now
understands it and he has a testimony of the Book of Mormon, but he is scared
to accept it because it is something new. It will just take time. He came to church on Sunday again and he went
to the English class with one of his friends in the ward, so I decided to join
them. The English class is awesome! It
is a group of like 7 African soul brothers haha. Every now and then someone would yell out a “Hallelujah”
or an “Amen.” I felt like I was in a Baptist church, It was
hilarious!
We had a greenie this week for 2 days! There is a priest in
the ward named Ian who came on splits with us for 2 days. He came to all of our lessons and even came to
our Zone meeting.
We met with Joyce and taught her about the Book of Mormon. She is really excited to read it and learn
more. She gave us tons of food again
haha. I love people from Suriname!
The ward here in Den Haag is just awesome! We are doing a 40
day fast with the ward. Basically for 40
days we have invited a family or person to fast on that day for our
investigators. The ward has been super
happy and willing to do it. It is a very
missionary oriented ward.
We are also meeting with quite a few less active members and
they are all doing great. I probably had
more lessons this week than any other week of my mission! The work is going
great and the Lord is blessing us with success.
Have a great week!
