| Elder Keller at the ducks stadium! AUTZEN! |
This
week was the most packed week in my planner! However, we were not able
to find a lot of people home at their appointed time. Now that I look
back, we did find and teach new people because our original plans fell
through. The lord works in mysterious ways and recognizing his hand in
all things is the key. We are seeing good things when we open up our
spiritual eyes!
This
week we met a lot of people that think they are wise and learned but
they hearken not unto the counsel of God! The one was a former member
and thinks that mormons just exist so that they have a place to belong.
He doesnt believe in God and he was telling us all this church history
that who knows where it came from. He said that the world is not black
and white and that we just need to accept every kind of person and their
choices. We asked about how he felt about life after death. He said he
was fine being a part of the the nothingness and darkness of the
universe. Well let me tell you. There is no shady area you cannot live
in the gray. The scriptures say that you cannot serve two masters you
will either hate the one and love the other and that you cannot serve
god and satan! We need to choose whose side we are on! I AM ON THE LORDS
SIDE BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY INTELLIGENT THING TO DO! It was sad to see
how they had placed a pavilion over themselves and hid themselves from
God. I know that we we were meant to speak with them and give them our
simple testimonies of restored gospel and that god lives. Funny thing is
though we asked if we could leave the one man with a prayer and he said
"Oh I actually said a prayer this morning so sure we can pray." We
asked him who he prayed to.... He couldnt answer and I was just about to
bust laughing sooo hard!!! Confounding the "wise" since 1995! ~ Elder
Allen. The gospel is simple dont complicate it!
Yes my new Companion is great! He is
such a happy dude and we are going to have some amazing times
together.

This
man pulled over while he was driving and yelled at us "There is no God!
Put the book down and Cope!" I said to him "There is a God, and you
still have hope!" : ) We get alot of crazies like that but I love it
cause it makes the day more interesting.
MOM
do you have a family search . org account??? We have a member here that
has some work that needs to be done for his ancestors but he cant go to
the temple very often and he wants it done. So if have an account I can
share his names with youguys and you can print off the papers and go do
the work for them! OH and the Plan of Salv. setup really is a $$$ mom!
Serious. I have laid it out on several occasions already and they focus
right in on it so thanks!
We
had an investigator follow us to church and we were 1 block away and
his car breaks in the middle of the road. EVERY WEEK something comes up
and the devil doesnt want him there! We are going to beat satan though
this next week will be it.
Last
thought D&C 88 : 81 it is our duty to warn others because we have
been warned. We have the gospel you guys! Dont forget it ever! It is the
greatest thing that we can share as well. So dont forget to take Elder
Ballards promise and get another Family to church before Christmas.
Necesitamos amonestarles y ayudarles!
Hasta la proxima semana!
