Elder May - Chapter 67



I am late in getting this post up.  We had a few issues with Elder Hayden’s blog this past week but are working diligently to get it back up and running.  I had a hard time last week with Elder Hayden being gone and I am not exactly sure why.  Maybe because we had lots of boys leaving that we know and love or maybe because life is hard sometimes… not really sure.  What I am sure of is that he is where he is supposed to be and it is our privilege to support and sacrifice in support of his pure obedience.  We love him, we miss him too – but we are oh, so proud of him!!  Enjoy!

Chapter 67:

1) The Book of Mormon Power!
2) Needs the Plan of Salvation in his life.
3) WILLIAM CAME TO CHURCH!
4) We are good to go for the baptism this weekend.

Hi everybody! I wanted to send this to keep you updated on what is going on! We are just doing the normal here in Port Charlotte but the week started with a good district meeting. 

We have pretty much been on a Book of Mormon high since zone conference last week and this district meeting was basically just bearing testimony on how the Book of Mormon has influenced us and those we have gotten to teach. As part of it we watched the Thomas S. Monson talk from Sunday morning session of this last conference because when the prophet speaks you listen up and do what he says. It has been fantastic to have happen to us at this time and it has sparked the work so much.

Second, we had to stay in the apartment for a bit because we weren't feeling good and while we were in we received a referral for a man that went on mormon.org asking for prayers, ordered a free bible, the referral lady taught him about the Book of Mormon so when we called 10 seconds later he answered and we set up to teach him on Tuesday of this week. That is exciting stuff. He is having a few trials so hopefully he and his family can find peace through the message of the restoration and Plan of Salvation. 

Third, we were waiting to see if anyone would come to church and then a members son actually came that we have been trying to teach without us even being able to talk to them about it and he came and enjoyed church and they are having us over for dinner and a lesson tonight.

Fourth, everything is set up for Penelope and Alan Ottenwalder to be baptized and confirmed this weekend. We are seeing them tomorrow, Wednesday, then they go to their dads and are back on Saturday. Their less active dad is coming to the baptism as well so we are all very excited for it. Pictures will be coming. 

I totally forgot to take any pictures this week so that is my bad. But I do love you all and appreciate the prayers and examples of testimony and faith that you are all to me/ I will talk more next week. 
Love you!

Love,  Elder May
