New Transfer!

Hey everyone! This week was transfers. I'm staying in Dalhart, but Elder Holgreen is leaving and I'm getting Elder Jensen. I'm super excited! We have some awesome people that are preparing for Baptism and we have a sweet district up here. I got asked to be a DL.

   So on Tuesday we had exchanges, and Elder Allen and I went to teach a member lesson. When we got there she told us she got off the phone with her husband, saying they need to call the missionaries because they're having problems with "ghosts" she said. Her lights and doors turn on and open throughout the day and night and she sees stuff at night sooo I blessed it for her and the room felt instantly better. But this is the third time she's had problems, so we're going to dedicate her house soon.

   We've been working hard with our members about helping do missionary work. It's taken some time but we're seeing the fruits of it! We went to a members dinner and they brought a friend of theirs who they've been praying about! We got to know him and shared an incredibly spiritual thought. The spirit is always so strong when talking about Christ so I know he felt it haha. 

   We then had a few lessons with our 5 friends...Anita, Edith, Sandra, Mercedes and Belem. We've been going through the Gospel of Jesus Christ with them, and they've been reading the Book of Mormon NONSTOP. We had a super cool conversation, where we read John 3:16 and just explained that Christ was sent into the world to save us. He wants us to be saved so bad, and he has given us this gospel right here to do so. And the spirit was so powerful, and hey started asking how we baptize and what not. Then, Edith said that this whole changing religion thing is kinda different, so she's just trying to go at her own pace and process. So that's awesome!

    We were knocking doors and found this guy from Guatemala named Elder and he's way cool. We had a laugh about our names haha. He is so cool, he let us in immediately after we said the name Jesus Christ, and immediately started talking to us. We brought up Baptism in the first lesson, and he said the same thing that it's a process but he's willing! So cool!

Those were the main highlights of the week....I miss yall! Talk to ya next week! Love yall!

Love, Elder Ryan
