Hi everyone, I've had a good week! We've been trying to stay busy out here, and this last week we had a few lessons with some great friends. one of those was with our friend Teresa, she has met with missionaries for a really long time. So we talked about the Restoration of the church, and knowing that she had heard it before we tried to make it special for her. So what we actually did was just took it slowly and made sure we checked her understanding of it along the way, but not just if she understands it in general but if she understands why it is so important to know. At the end of the lesson I very boldly stated that this is the restored church and that God's authority to perform miracles and baptize his saints is on the earth and that this is the only church that has that power. After I said it I kind of felt bad because I felt like I had intimidated her a little bit. But at the moment it seemed like the right thing to do. We then invited her to simply just pray about it. Because honestly that's the only way she can know for herself if it's true.
The rest of the week we spent doing service and trying to find more people to teach. It was all in all a really great week! I love y'all and I hope you have a great week!
love ya!
Elder Isaac Olsen
