Sister Macaso: Canada Vancouver Mission: Baptism+Weapons of War+Transfer

This is week is awesooomee!!!

1. We had baptism! My first fruit of hardwork! Amen to that! Hahaha

She's Joanna, and she's the most prepared-golden investigator eveeeeerrr! I mean it! I remember one day she said..

"I wanna get baptize!" and..

"I want my interview now." (bap interview)

and we're like... AWHEDGADBEDBUAEFDABSDU!!!

2. Weapons of War:

We had a spiritual lesson with our LA, and we shared a scripture verse about the weapons of war" (Alma 24)

19 And thus we see that, when these Lamanites were brought to believe and to know the truth, they were firm, and would suffer even unto death rather than commit sin; and thus we see that they buried their weapons of peace, or they buried the weapons of war, for peace.

And so we made a paper sword with her. We asked her to write something that she's willing to give up in order to be fully converted. She wrote.. "Cigarette"

17... they took their swords, and all the weapons which were used for the shedding of man’s blood, and they did bury them up deep in the earth.

We went outside of her house and she buried her tobacco deep into the ground..

18 And this they did, it being in their view a testimony to God, and also to men, that they never would use weapons again for the shedding of man’s blood; and this they did, vouching and covenanting with God, that rather than shed the blood of their brethren they would give up their own lives; and rather than take away from a brother they would give unto him; and rather than spend their days in idleness they would labor abundantly with their hands.

With teary eyes she said..

" I know its hard, but i can do this.."

3. TRANSFERS!!!!
