So we had a lesson with Matthew again this week. He is a youth pastor
(orthodox Christian) and he wanted to learn more so we have been
teaching him. We took Brother Belliston with us and we had a great
lesson. Matthew just kept asking more and more questions about the
great apostasy and we were able to answer every single one. And he
agreed with everything we had to say. Finally at the end I could tell
he was trying to come up with more answers so I bore my testimony
about the Book of Mormon and said how that can answer all questions
and concerns. Brother Belliston then bore his testimony no the spirit
was so strong it was amazing. At the end Matthew looked at us and said
"I will for sure read it this time and pray thank you so much"! Best
lesson I have had on my mission so far!
We had a zone conference this week but it wasn't just a zone or two it
was a conference with half the mission. Because 2 general authorities
came and visited. We had Elder Perkins and Elder Meurs come and visit
us. It was awesome to hear what they had to say. They talked to us
about keeping faith to find people to teach. It was amazing. I also
got to see a lot of my mission friends. Like Elder Davidson!!! But it
was a good time.
Then yesterday it was stake conference and Elder Perkins spoke at
that! So I got to hear him twice! It has been a very spiritual
uplifting week and very enlightening.
But then yesterday afternoon it was blazing hot as we were walking
around. So we were talking about how much we would love a random
rainstorm. Then out of nowhere we get caught in this HUGE rainstorm.
It flooded some streets and we had to walk home in it and there were
some points where the water was shin high! Me and Elder Butikofer got
drenched but it was so fun I guess. But moral of the story is be
carful what you wish for!
love Elder Swisher
