Grant Mission

Hello everybody! I hope you are all having a good Tuesday so far because I am even though it's 4° outside! We have been busy all day everyday this week! We have had lessons with so many amazing people and are trying to progress them towards baptism! Goals. That is one of the biggest things this week. On Friday, we had 5 finds out of our goal of 14. We had District Council that day because our District Leader was sick till then. In that meeting, he invited us to pray about and review our goals...so we did. And raised our goal by 1! Now we were down by 10 and only had 2ish days to get all of them. So we went out and worked like always and got 8 finds that day! It was crazy! Then on Saturday, we got 3! And on Sunday, we got 2! All for a total of 18/15 finds! Prayerfully setting goals works! One thing I also got to do this week is go on an exchange to the Swahili area for a few hours and I loved it! I understood nothing but I came to love the people so quickly! We went to an English cl...

Hello everyone!  We have had a great week here in Kimberly! We started it off by having a lesson with one of our more promising people at the seminary building! She was a lot more comfortable there and the seminary teacher was able to help with the lesson! We had a really busy day on Thursday and ended up rushing everywhere because we had so many things to do in a short amount of time! We got to talk to a lot of members this week and have learned more about some families in the wards we cover and how we can help them! We had that busy pace almost every day this week. Being busy makes the work a lot more fun and makes it fly by sometimes!  We had a lesson with a man named Mike Saturday night. Mike has had a really rough life and didn't want anything to do with the church a few years ago. His neighbors are members and they have helped him a few times and served him a bit and recently asked them for advice on some things. The members referred him to the bishop and he started meet...

This week has been great! A lot of things have happened and I have loved it! It's so fun to see the small miracles and how they always happen just when you need them! The first miracle was on Friday and it continued throughout the week. We were meeting with Ashley, one of our people on date. She is trying to get Sundays off to go to church but is having a hard time because that's why she was hired. We were talking to Ashley when her daughter who hasn't been interested in the past walked into the room during the lesson and sat down! We talked to her for a bit and after inviting her mom again to church, we asked her if she wanted to go. She said YES! Elder Johnson and I looked at each other and then asked if she had a ride. She didn't so we asked if she would like one. She said yes! We left that night wondering who could give her a ride while recognizing the miracle that had happened! Another miracle that happened was on Thursday. We saw in our records that there was some...

I have been thinking about my last few emails and how short and uninformative they were and I hope to make this one better. We started off the week with District council and learned how to use the scriptures more effectively! I am trying to get better at using scriptures and having them testify of the things we teach. We got to talk to a lot of members and share messages with them this week. By doing so, we have gotten some amazing referrals that are very promising. I have seen the area grow so much in a week just from these meetings. On Sunday, we saw miracles all day. We had a goal of 3 people to come to church. We started the day with no one set but ended the day with 6! People just kept showing up and even after church people were telling us about people who came! It was amazing miracle to see!  I also came across a scripture in Mormon. It is Mormon 9:11. It starts by saying; But behold, I will show unto you a God of miracles. It goes on to talk about who God is and what He has...

I am so happy to be back in Twin Falls! I am serving in Kimberly and it has so much potential! We have seen miracles already!  My companion, Elder Johnson, has only been out a transfer and is now on his second one. He knows a lot and makes working the area easy.  There are multiple people who have been attending church regularly and could be baptized soon. Quite a few of them work on Sundays and will be a bit harder to get to church. I have learned a lot here in Kimberly and I know that there's still a lot more to come!  Packages 135 S. 7th Ave. Pocatello ID 83201 Grant Williams Photos: A doormat that has Welcome in a lot of languages The twin falls temple this morning!
