Transfers/Teaching Alby

(Elder Cummings)
Goodness, there has been so much that has happened this week!  We had another MLC, transfer calls came in, and we had a mini-missionary for the weekend!

Good news: I don't have to pack my bags.  Bad news: Elder Tongish and Elder Sullivan do.  Good news: that means I get Elder Sullivan's memory foam mattress.  The trio has been fun.  My new companion is Elder Sparks from Rexburg, Idaho.  He was trained in the Fresno North zone when I was here the first time around.  He comes to the area Tuesday morning!

One of the lessons we taught this week was to a girl named Alby.  We actually met up with her twice, once to teach the Restoration and again to teach the Plan of Salvation.  Last week we contacted her at Taco Bell, and immediately she recognized that we were sent to her by God.  Ever since we taught her about "apostasy" she has been using it as an explanation for the lower points of her life and the lives of her friends.  She gets it.

When we were laying the Plan of Salvation out for her there was power behind our words because we were teaching with authority from the scriptures.

There is so much power in God's words!  The more we study them and let them direct our lives, the happier we will be.  I am grateful that God has reached out so many in love to teach the truth.  I am grateful that the truth has been recorded by those prophets.  I know that God is still speaking.  He will speak to all of us in answer to our prayers!

I hope you all have a wonderful week!
