June 8, 2015 "Bear testimony"

Well this week has been super amazing!! We have worked hard and are finding some amazing people.  When I first came into this area we had no what we call "layered teaching pool" we had some that were close to baptism but that was it! it made me really worried because once we baptized these people we would have no one to teach.  So through a lot of prayer we really are finding loads of people to teach!

We also had an amazing zone conference and the APs talked about the power of bearing testimony.  They showed the last testimony of Bruce R. McConkie and wow it is powerful.  It made me tear up a bit. If you haven't seen it I would suggest watching it.  Through all of this we committed to bear testimony more often.  We had a lesson with a family that has been really stubborn and we were thinking about dropping them.  When we got into the lesson we knew we had to bear testimony so we did.  After our testimonies the family was completely silent and then the mom expressed the love she feels when we are in her home and even broke down and cried.  For them it will be a long process but I think our testimonies helped!!! Never be afraid to bear testimony to anyone it can touch anyones heart. 

have fun in Newport.  If I was there I probably would be dating that babe that you saw at church! lol 
much love, Elder Olson
