Goodbye's & Hello's, a baptism and training a new missionary



In the visitor center you give lot of tours to people. We meet so many people, most of those people you meet , those are their first interactions they have with the church.  We sow a lot of seeds and it is hard to see the results of it. But this week there have been a lot of joyful miracles happening. It all started one late evening around 8:45pm.  A girl named Jordan who had recently moved to St.George walked into the visitor center with her friend who is a recent convert. We were able to give them a tour. Her friend Jordan had a lot of questions.   My companion and I gave them a tour in the visitor center. She had a lot of questions about the church and we answered her questions.  We taught her about the basic beliefs of the church and later asked her if she wanted to meet with the missionaries and she said yes.  She was golden and we love her. It is amazing to see how the gospel changes people. She got baptised this week, it was an amazing experience. We invited our investigator Richard and Chiara and they loved the baptism. The following day on Sunday there was a fireside at the visitor center and our investigators Richard was able to come. Some one from the St.George Utah temple presidency gave a really good talk and Jordan bore her testimony and I love hearing hearing new converts testimonies, it's very heartwarming to me. Richard our investigator felt the spirit a lot. It was an awesome experience for him and he is learning more and recognising the spirit more in his life. He is awesome. 
And now for other exciting news Yaaaaaaaa!yay! I am done training and it's sad that I am done. It's really weird. For the other news, I got a called from president this morning asking if I can train. Woahhhh, what! Long story short I said yes. Long story short I am training someone and her name is Sister D, I don't know any thing else about her but I am excited to meet her and sad my companion and I are splitting. It is so weird, I just got done with 12 weeks yesterday and today I am becoming a new trainer. 

Love you all until next time. 
Love sister Asameyong

Week 2 - Praying and be a good boy, be a good girl!

Image
Every morning begins with a prayer, every lesson, meal, role play, in general everything begins and ends with a prayer here. I guess that is part of the reason why you can feel the spirit strongly here at the MTC. My roommates are all from around the world. There is Sister P from Ukraine, she is very stylish and likes working out with me at 6am. My companion Sister J is from the Marshall Islands, she is so funny and she is the most interesting person I have ever met. The other girl in the room is Sister Y and she's from Yap which is found next to Guam, which is next to Marshall Island which is next to Hawaii.  She is very sweet and she is always smiling. In my district we have a Sister called Sister K and she's from india she cracks me up and she always tells us jokes. What I love about the MTC so far is that you meet a lot of people from all over the world and everyone has one goal.  Which is invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restore...

First week in the Field!

Image
Best of both worlds.  First week out in the field. Well my companion is Sister S she is from a small town called Burns Oregon.  She's very cute and kind, she is the best trainer I could possibly ask for. It has been great with lots of sunshine. The sun is too much for me it gets to like 100 and something degrees and I feel like I am in an oven. The area where I am proselyting is called Santa Clara Heights and it is beautiful and the houses looks like it is from the movies. We are in charge of the Whole stake so it is kind of hard to go to all the sacrament meetings and we also get to do the visitor center half of the day so we only get to knock on door for  a couple of hours. Well we get the best of both world in a sense that people come to us in the visitor center and we go look for people also. It has been hard so far but Heavenly Father has been providing for us.  I had to bear my testimony so many times and attend a lot of sacrament meeting and meeting ...

Baptisms by Dad

Image
Wow, How time flies, Tranfers are today and my companion  and I are staying together. Its been six weeks already that we have been together, wow went too fast. Sister D is an awesome missionary and it is a lot of fun training. The part I enjoy the most about training is doing 12 weeks again [ training program for new missionaries I think ], there is so much to learn. The week has been Glorious, it ended with 3 baptisms that  took place saturday the 30th of September. I can't believe it is already October. But it was one of the best Baptism that I have ever attended. The Dad Tommie Got baptised and then confirmed and then ordained and then baptised his wife Rachel and then baptised their daughter Chiara. It was one of the happiest days on my mission. It's a blessing to see a family come closer to the Savior. We had to receive permission from our Mission President and our Stake president in order for that to happen [ for the Dad to baptise his family the same da...
