30 Sep 2007Life is good in New Zealand. We are continuing to teach Sarah. She is still coming along, we are planning to teach her the third lesson, and challenge her with Baptism. I am excited! We MAY have our first baptism. We finally got a hold with our other progressing investigator, Tiffany Long. She was being taught by Elder Tuesher and Elder Mudrow (the elders here before us.) She was coming to church and receiving the lessons well. When we visited her she told us she did not want anything to do with the church any more. grr. We have picked up two other investigators, however. One of them is an Anglican Minister. He is searching for the true church of God. He has a lot of really good hard questions. We have been able to answer all of them. It has been a great learning experience. Our other new investigator is a young girl who is accepting the gospel beautifully. She has a lot of questions of the soul such as: Where did we come from, why are we here, and where are we going? We will teach her the plan of salvation on our next visit. We are excited about her to. (as all of our investigators). We were given a challenge by President Finnigan called "spring planting". This is where we had to have 25 gospel conversations, per day, per companionship. It was tough but it was rewarding. We got to teach the first lesson 10 times!!!
