This week was
amazing. M. our awesome investigator that has grown his faith in Christ, which
now just beams from his eyes, got baptized this Saturday! It was loistava, He seriously has given so
much hope and excitement to this ward, they have accepted him with open arms
its so incredible. He just brings this light and happiness where ever he goes
and now even more so after his baptism. On Saturday we went to the church 2 hours early to
fill up the font, and little did we know that there are 3 faucets that the
water has to come out of for it to be ready on time! So about 30 minutes before
it starts Vanhin Spiers goes to check how high it is and it only is up to his
knee! So we frantically run to the kitchen grab all the buckets and pots we can
find, and start filling it up from the kitchen and bathrooms! It was quite the
adventure and was filled up in less then 20 minutes before everyone came! Good
thing most Mormons don’t come too on time!
Picture of our friend before he was baptized! M. is the best! |
Mikko was as
excited as anyone could be. On
Sunday he was wearing suit pants and a tie and white button up, and
nice shoes which he never wears and the priesthood holders gave him the gift of
the holy ghost and it was so amazing the ward is already welcoming him in with
open arms, and he was even participating a ton in Sunday school and said the closing prayer! It
was so amazing he already feels like a life long member! Then a member invited
us all over after church, and it was the perfect atmosphere for him to see how
the spirit and this gospel works in daily life! Amazing! We had splits with the Vaasa Sisaret and
it was sooo much fun. I was with Sisar P. and she was super stressed out, and
we were able to work it through and just hand it completely over to the Lord
for the Day! It was amazing so many tiny miracles, and then this golden woman
just basically found us and told us that she had heard what we were talking
about to this one man on the street about our religion and she was so
interested! It was great I had been praying that while we were there we could
find someone to build the kingdom in Vaasa and the Lord did all the work, we
just had fun loving people.
Beautiful Oulu! |
Wish I had
more time to explain how amazing this place really is, how exciting it is to be
here. But alas I only have about 1 hour or less to explain. Take care and
remember the Light you have. Hold it up, its not meant to be hidden because of
why? It supposed to shine to help our friends along!
Also if you
haven’t seen the new music video from Alex Boye of the song: "Have I Done
Any Good in the World Today." Check it out! Tooo good, I love this
gospel!!
