A Week of Quarantine

HELLO!!!

I'M ALIVE AND DOING WELL! It's our first day out of quarantine and let me tell you, it feels SO good to be out haha!! Last Monday we thought we only had to quarantine for 5 days because I tested positive for covid but turns out it was actually 7. Yikes. That's a long time haha. But it actually wasn't that bad, thank goodness. We stayed very busy with lots of zoom lessons and phone calls. When I say the Lord is hastening His work that still includes when we are stuck inside!

☆ We were able to give 3 soft baptismal invites ("As the Lord answers your prayers and you feel that this message is true, will you follow the example of Jesus Christ by being baptized?”) and every one of them said yes! So that was so exciting!

☆ We had our 2 recent converts, Heather and her son Kaylon, fellowship a lesson and they were THE BEST missionaries. The day before, we had just retaught Kaylon the Plan of Salvation so during the lesson, we asked him to say the opening prayer. He went, "...please help me on my journey to the spirit world. In Jesus name, amen." MELT MY HEART!! It was the most precious prayer I've ever heard. I just love him!!!

☆ Sadly, we had to take Jamaal and his family off date:( They hadn't really responded to us this week and we haven't been able to have a lesson with them. But they will get back soon! Keep praying for them!

I love you all! Hope you have a wonderful week!

2 Nephi 7:7-9

"For the Lord God will help me, therefore shall I not be confounded. Therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.
And the Lord is near, and he justifieth me. Who will contend with me? Let us stand together. Who is mine adversary? Let him come near me, and I will smite him with the strength of my mouth.
For the Lord God will help me..."

So grateful for the Lord. I know this is His work and I am just here to help. It doesn't just stop when we get sick. He loves you! Keep being amazing!

Love,

Sister Coon
