This was another crazy week in Cambodia. At the beginning of the week we were meeting an investigator at the church for a lesson and we saw a crazy lookpu swimming in the baptismal font. It was pretty funny. He is always hanging out at the church. Hopefully he doesn't do that again.
We went on exchanges with the Sister Training Leaders this week and so I got to go to Steng Meanchey for a day. It was super fun we taught two families about the book of mormon and restoration of the gospel. They had the cutest little kids that were listening to the lesson with us.
We have 3 new investigators this week. We met a girl named Serei Roth this week when we were contacting and she invited us into her house to meet each other and we briefly talked about Heavenly Father and His love for her. She called us again 2 days later and said that she wanted to meet us. We went back and talked about the restoration and she just soaked everything in and we gave her a baptismal date for December 3. She is so solid, she asked us when church was because she wanted to come and learn more. We are really excited about teaching her, she already has been reading the Book of Mormon everyday and you can tell that she is so prepared to receive the gospel.
Another one of our investigators is Bong Panaa, she amazes me. We have taught her all the lessons and continue to teach her as she is preparing for her baptismal date. She is progressing so well and has shared so many spiritual experiences with us. I love these people here they are so amazing!
I love Alma 37: 36 and 37 especially where it says "cry unto God for all thy support; yea, let all thy doings be unto the Lord, and withersoever thou goest let it be in the Lord; yea, let all thy thoughts be directed unto the Lord; yea, let the affections of thy heart be placed upon the Lord forever." This scripture has had so much meaning to me these past few weeks as I am constantly striving to follow the will of the Lord and finding the people he wants me to talk to.
Love you!!
