Thornley: THE WEEK

It was indeed THE week of my life! So many crazy miracles I am so so grateful for the Lord in all he does for me!

We had set a really high goal to get 8 member present lessons and we got 7 we set a goal for 8 new investigators and got 9 I have NEVER seen such an amazing week before EVER.

So we were trying to find a less active to leave her a note to help her feel loved and maybe welcome us into her home well she wasnt there so we said a prayer and started knocking doors. Now normally if there is a big mean dog I will not knock the door or the neighbors either I would like to keep my legs thankyou. However my companion has not yet learned that. She went on and knocked it anyway. Good thing too. A man answered let us into his home and we now have a family all interested in playing a game with us this week to learn what the Plan of Salvation is. We are so excited please PLEASE pray for them their family name is Cai 4.

Our relief society president really stepped up last week and helped us twice with teaching an investigator Lin Qiu Hua. She is progressing like crazy now and has a baptismal date. I ask you to also include her in your prayers.

We went knocking again and found a house I had been to before with Sister O'Brien. It is a less actives home. I had forgotten the name of the less active and the floor that she lived. We walked up to the door and the door man said, Are you looking for your member said the name and we said yes she said go on in and told us the floor and house number. The member wasnt home but her 19 year old non member daughter was and is now going to meet with us to learn about our church and its restoration.

We were biking in Su'ao after miraculously visiting a less active and we had prayed beforehand that if it could it wouldnt rain. It hadnt for the first hour we were there and then began POURING. We started biking back and I saw we had 3 seconds at the light. I saw a boy sitting on his scooter in front of me and decided to ask him to pull over even though I had less time than I would need to say that in chinese. He pulled over we had a lesson on the side of the road in the pouring rain and he is set up to meet with us again this wednesday.

We were knocking doors again in an area I and Sister O'Brien had already knocked a thousand times. But we felt impressed to go again. We went and found a woman from the Phillipeans that was baptized 8 years ago there into our church but hasnt come sense moving to Taiwan. We are taking her a new Book of Mormon for her tonight.

We were calling to set up visits for this week my companion was calling our potentials I was calling less actives. In the time of 10 minutes we had 5 visits set up with less actives we have been trying to reach for months.

Those and many many more. I am so grateful for Heavenly Father and I know as we contimue in faith we will continue to see miracles. I love you all so much. Be safe and I will see you all next week!
