Every member a Missionary...

This week we had a great experience with a new investigator Lesego. We just met her a week ago, Sunday. We were teaching her friend, Ronald. We were there to give him the Book of Mormon because he loved church earlier that day, and couldn't wait to get it. Anyway Lesego sat in with us, and I just thought she was already a member, because two of the people who live in that house are already members, and she basically helped us teach and explain things. She just got it. The Book of Mormon made sense to her. I seriously thought she was already a member that i just didn't recognize, and at the end of the lesson my companion asked her if she would like her own copy of the Book of Mormon, she was so happy and said she would love that more than anything! So we gave her her own copy, and went back to check up on her and Ronald's reading on Saturday. When we asked her how her reading was (we asked her to read 3 nephi 11 and the introduction) and she said it was great and that her favorite verses were 33 and 37 which say that we must be baptized to saved in the kingdom of heaven and the importance of being baptized, and then she said, so i know I need to be baptized, but I think I should visit the church first! And then she said how while she was reading she realized that she didn't need to suffer, she could be happy because somebody had already suffered and died for her! WOW! I seriously was blown away, I almost shrieked I was so excited! How often does that happen? Rarely!! My joy was seriously so much. I could hardly contain myself and sit through the lesson. It was wonderful. Talk about a golden investigator! So we put her on date for the second week of October! And then she came to church yesterday and loved it. She is amazing. Future Relief Society president for sure! After the lesson Sister Kubheka and I marveled at how little we do. We as missionaries really don't do anything. The Lord prepares his people and then brings them to us. We were there to teach her friend, but there she was ready and waiting. Missionary work really is amazing. We see miracles on a daily basis, not all are as amazing as meeting Lesego, but we still see miracles daily, and daily I am amazed at how much the Lord truly prepares his children, and then leads them to us! On that note, the Lord is preparing his children not just here in Botswana, but everywhere. So I would encourage each and every one of you to pray for those missionary opportunities and then have the guts to follow through, and just as I have said, the Lord is preparing his people, and when you meet those people you won't have to do much, just open your mouth and share your testimony and invite them to meet the missionaries, that is it! So please, just pray for those opportunities and then have the courage to open your mouth and share what you know. you will be amazed at the difference you can make in someone's life! And you will be so much happier and experience true joy just like it tells us in D&C 18! That is my story for the week! Other than that, I am just working hard and trying to love and serve these people the best i know how. Thank you for your prayers and your support in my behalf. It is appreciated.
