Elder Andrew Edholm -- week 82

 This week went really well, Angel Moises is still planning on being baptized this Saturday, the 27th, so we're super excited about that!  We've been bringing him to some of the youth activities and he's been really enjoying them too. I'll tell you next week how everything went. Something else exciting that happens this last week was that someone else we are teaching, Mireya, had a really spiritual experience and wants to be baptized. We went over and read some scriptures about prayer, the power of it, and the privilege we have to be able to ask our Heavenly Father in prayer for the things that lack. We asked her if she could pray for us and to ask God in the prayer about our message and more specifically if Joseph Smith was an instrument in the hands of God to help restore the gospel of Jesus Christ. She prayed and asked, then paused for couple of seconds and there was a very special feeling in the room, she then continued and finished her prayer. She told us that she believed it to be true. We talked with her and we set a goal together for a baptismal date, she is planning on being baptized the 20th of March.

Here are two verses that I read in my personal study that we shared with Mireya. 

Matthew 7:7-8

    7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

    8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
