Elder Bednar visits TSAM!

Well this week was an incredible experience!!! On Friday we had the amazing opportunity to hear in person from Elder Bednar :) After wards it felt like that one commercial where the guys it talking to the kids and they are like "what about infinity times infinity" and the guy does a head explosion. Yup, that is what happened spiritually all night for 3 hours :) haha I can not tell y'all a whole lot because he said he would find us and do bad things to us haha.  He is actually a very funny man and made it a great learning environment!! He is kind of short also haha it suprised me when he first walked in. But anyways it was a once in a life time opportunity, even though I did not get to shake his hand. But the focus was on faith and a few weeks prior we were given 3 talks that he had given, all of them were based on learning by faith and acting by faith.

Also this week I had the opportunity to give a talk about The Restoration of the Gospel in sacrament meeting. I feel like it went okay haha :) I was able to incorporate certain points that Elder Bednar spoke about. We found a few new investigators this week through good old knocking on doors!!! One of our investigators is going to be baptized on the 1st of February as along as we can keep teaching her and she comes to church. But she had a really hard week this week and had quite a few miracles happen to her. One was she was not able to pay the phone bill and was going to have no way to talk to anyone, but it never shut off so someone paid her bill. Just a lot of things have happened to her and her husband recently and being 19 with 2 kids.. she has really recognized that this is a trial from God testing her faith.
