May 30, 2011










Family,

Miracles never cease in 5th and Wildwood!! Our blind friend Chris was baptized on Saturday, and what a miracle he is! He walked into the church over a month ago and new he needed God in his life. Now he has made that change and is loving life and seeing many blessings come his way.

Another awesome miracle that we saw this past week was also on Saturday. Normally we have a standing appointment with a less active named James, but he was sick and couldn't meet. The sad part about that was that we didn't have backup plans...We were humbled and we prayed that Heavenly Father would guide us to who we needed to see at that time. We also repented for not having backup plans. So we looked at the former investigators list and went to meet some. On the way we spoke to a couple people and met a lady who speaks Mandarin Chinese We got her info and passed it off to the Mandarin-speaking Elders. We also got in contact with a former investigator and set up a lesson for next Saturday. The best part about that night was that we went by a part member family and set up a lesson for Sunday. Yesterday we had that lesson with them and taught them about Temples and Eternal Families because they just recently had a baby. Bro XXXXX was very receptive and we set a baptism date with him for the 24th of June! So many amazing things happening here in this area.

We have another amazing week planned this week and have lots of lessons with some potential investigators. On top of this we can take our suit coats off for the summer on June 1st, Wednesday!! That will be a good day haha. I love you all so much and miss ya tons! Have a great week!!

Love,
Elder Moore
