This week Elder Wendt and I have been doing a lot of finding and trackting. It has been paying off too because we had 23 lessons this week and that is the most lessons I have had in one week my whole mission! We had two great experiences this week.
1. We were trackting and we found a less active member of the church who just moved in to a new place. So we talked to her and she has a daughter who is 7 and we are hoping we can get her active then get her daughter baptized. After we left her house we saw a man walking down the street with groceries in his hand we asked if we could help him carry them to his house, he said yes. We took them to his house as we talked about the Savior and about church. Then we asked him if he would like to come on a church tour and see how we worship and he said yes. We asked if he could do it later that day and we set it up for 2 hours latter. Then after the church tour we taught him about the priesthood and we invited him to be baptized for the 29th of September, he said yes!
2. We took some future missionaries trackting with us so they could see what it's like to be a missionary. And we had some great experiences but the best one was when Elder Wendt and Riley asked a woman to be baptized on her front lawn after they had taught the first lesson and she said yes. She said she wishes she could read the book of Mormon and be baptized but she has no money to buy the book. They told her it was free and her face lit up like a light!
Love you all! Next week is transfer pray that I stay here with Elder Wendt. And pray for my Dad!
Love Elder Peterson
