Transfer day pictures and P-Day last week on the town This week was totally legit! We had an awesome zone conference and there was an inspired comment by my old district leader Elder Smith. "We have to stop focusing on changing ourselves and start focusing on trusting the savior." May we all do that!
How cool is it that Elder Oaks is in the first Presidency! He's mom's favorite apostle! I loved how President Nelson said in the broadcast that he is starting with the end in mind. More wonderful counsel. Before making decisions ask yourself: what effect could this decision have on life? We had some sweet miracles! There was a lady who had ordered a bible and never got it so we went by and tried to give it to her. She needs a large print but she let us in and asked us if we had been walking on white plains road earlier that day. We told her we had and she then told us that the spirit of the Lord told her to come and get us. She got too scared so she didn't. We didn't know who she was and we didn't see her on the street. Then it just so happened that we felt that we should go check to see if this lady had received her bible and! There we were at her front door. We were able to teach her the restoration which she doesn't quite yet fully understand but we set a return appointment and we are going back soon! We also talked about The ARP program during district meeting last week. Well elder Horner and I were talking about how we as humans would most likely not be the superior life form on earth if it weren't for the blessing of communication. We were talking about how sometimes we get nervous about opening our mouths and talking to people about the gospel. Then as I was saying that this man almost walked by us and we stopped him and he asked us a bunch of awesome questions and he is a recovering addict. We invited him to the ARP and he is stoked about it! We gave him a copy of the Book of Mormon and he asked before we could even get to it if there was a certain place to start. We felt prompted to leave him with ether chapter 12. Miracles are awesome! Trusting in the savior is even more awesome. I love you all! I love being a missionary! I love my savior. The Book of Mormon is true! Ive felt it. Elder Murray
