March 25th, 2018: BEST WEEK EVER


Subject: BEST WEEK EVER
Hey everyone! As you can tell from the heading, this was seriously the best week!

So we had two exchanges this week, one with a companionship of Sisters we are over, and one with the Senior STL's. The SSTL's live in Stungmiancey, and are covering my old area, so I got to go back and see all of my old investigators and recent converts!! It was seriously the best this ever. The best thing about it was I got to see how in just the short month that I have been gone, they have all changed SO much! Each and every one of them had grown so much in the gospel and missed me and Sister Jennings so much. I think the biggest change I saw was in Ming Suan. When I first got to SMC, Ming Suan refused to take the sacrament because it was "evil", refused to pray in lessons, and was extremely quick to anger. When she was baptized last transfer with me and Sister Jennings, we could feel a difference in her that was inexplainable, but we knew it was the Holy Ghost working on her heart. When we visited her this week, I didn't even recognize her because her behavior had changed so much. She was glowing with happiness and love, and I can't even explain how happy it made me. The Gospel has truly changed her to be a follower of Jesus Christ, a loving mom, and a better person. God is so good!
We also had two baptisms this week for our two investigators in Chba Ampov! Suay and Ming Borin were seriously beaming with joy! Their baptismal service and confirmations on Sunday made me so happy because they are now members of God's true church!! The Gospel is changing lives, people!!
I love you all so much and hope that you will all find the time to listen to our latter-day prophets this weekend for General Conference. Don't spoil too many details next week because we have to wait an extra week for it to be translated in Khmer! Have the best week ever!!
