I am getting transferred to Grand Rapids to be a zone leader there. It will be good but I was hoping to finish as a regular grunt work missionary, but this will be good as well.
This week we got a referral from church headquarters and at first he was acting all interested. We had an amazing lesson where he was telling us all about how he wants to change his life and the spirit was super strong so we decided on the next visit that we were going to try putting him on date. During that second visit we went to put him on date and as we were about to, he stopped us and said I know what you're about to ask and the answer is no. I was baptized in Grand Rapids as a teenager. I never thought I would try to put someone on date who is a member!
This week we had a lesson with a guy by the name of Ryan and he is on baptismal date for July 8th. The sister missionaries were originally teaching him, but since they are leaving Lansing they are leaving him to us. It was a powerful lesson we were able to help him recognize the spirit and supposedly it was the first time he gave an affirmative answer that he would get baptized!
