Hey everyone,
This week has been good. We had a special zone conference this week and we're getting smartphones and facebook soon. I'll be sure to add everybody when I get it:) Also, I'm getting transferred this week to Norwich, Connecticut. I'm excited for it. I've heard good things about the ward, the area, and my new companion. Elder Blotter and I have had some good times here in Cambridge, and I know he's ready to take over the area. It's a little confusing to make your way around Boston and Cambridge at first.
Anyway, We had a cool lesson this week with a referral from a member. This member had sat next to him on the plane about two months ago. It was just a simple conversation they had and a commitment to read the Book of Mormon. It's amazing to see how much can happen from a small act of reaching out. This investigator accepted baptism, and we plan on inviting him to be baptized on a specific day this next lesson (only I'll be gone).
I love the teachings of the Savior in the New Testament. He counsels the recently returned seventies. They were amazed at the power that had been given them on their missions to heal and cast out devils. Jesus counseled them "20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not... but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven." Sometimes it's nice to have a sign that God is with us. The fact that we have received forgiveness ourselves is the greatest miracle of all
Love,
Elder Rogers
