This week started off with exchanges with the other Elders in our zone. They actually came down rather than us going up this time. It was good though because Elder Bake and I were able to go over to Portola while my companion and Elder Talbot could work here in Quincy. In one of our lessons we taught Katie about the faith repentance and baptism. The lesson was going well and the spirit was very strong as we testified of the blessings of baptism and me and Elder Bake both felt prompted to invite her to be baptized in the first week of October. She seem excited about that and accepted the invitation! After the lesson Elder Bake and I were so excited we called the other Elders to tell them the good news and when we called d them they told us they invited Annabelle, Michael's daughter, to be baptized as well! So it was and exchange full of miricles.
That same night we drove down for zone conference and interviews. Those were both fun as always. But after, me and Elder Feist stayed in Reno to do exchanges with the Assistants to the President. I worked with Elder Bell for the day and it was awesome to see how well he could talked to everyone about the Gospel. Every person we passed by, he was able to get the talking about the Gospel. I was super impressed and working to keep up, but I did find myself useful when I got to talk to someone in Spanish. It was a super fun experience and I definitely learned a lot about how to talk to everyone.
The same night we returned to Quincy, we stopped by Hannah's house, as we've been trying to get in co tact with her for a while. She invited us in and we started to teach the plan of salvation. Hannah seemed to understand everything we taught about Gods great and marvelous plan for us, despite many of the ideas being new. The spirit again was very powerful and at the end Elder Feist invited her to be baptized. She said absolutely, and new that the commitments she would make in preparation would help her life.
Super awesome week! Can't wait for more
Elder Allen
