GETTING MORE BUSY

The area I have been serving in for the past 6 months has been struggling. In the past month I have only found five investigators, some which have already dropped. The four Elders haven't had much success either. Really depressing to work so hard and then not see any significant results.

But Saturday the Lord really did bless us. First we had a lesson with Lee Jane at 12:15, then at 12:30 we taught English class. That was hectic. Then after English class we talked with Darmia and Jameal.

Jamael is a former investigator who just got back a month ago from visiting her native country. We met with her before this transfer started and she told us that she doesn't know if she has time right now to meet regularly, because her Father-in-law has cancer and is usually the one to watch her baby girl.

Then about two weeks ago, during our English class break, our member Darima called and asked when it started up again and asked us to invite Jamael. I said "sure". So glad Darmia told me to do that, because that invitation was the whole reason she came to English class this past Saturday. And then after English class she told us she wanted to start meeting one on one again for gospel and English. I am so excited. She was one of our most progressing investigators before she had left. I really like her.

So now every Saturday we have three back-to-back lessons: Lee Jane, English Class, Jamael. So exciting. I haven't been this busy since my last area.

Ward Activity. The men cooked for the ward.
