CANADA Week 99-June 18, 2019



God has allowed us to see many miracles this week, but one of my personal favorites was with a man named Mahdi.

Mahdi grew up involved in a different faith, and transitioned to no belief, and has come back around to a hesitant belief in God. He has been through many difficult things that I can't understand, and he misses his family.

We taught him about this life and its purpose. We testified of life after death through Jesus Christ, and before we were able to truly explain, he remembered. He remembered things about his life before coming to the earth, he prophesied of life after death, and he joyed in Jesus Christ. Someone that he didn't know before. He messaged us yesterday saying that his life is changed.

I truly know that Jesus is our Savior. I know that the Holy Ghost teaches us truth and helps us to remember, if we are worthy of his company. God rewards us according to our desires, so let us desire that which will make us truly happy. 

Another man we are teaching has started to exercise righteous desires because of Jesus Christ. He committed himself to move a mountain, by stopping smoking. Previously he had been smoking on average 40 cigarettes a day. He whittled it down to 1 a day over time. Yesterday he handed us the last pack of cigarettes he would every buy, as well as his lighters. He walked away a happy man. A light man.

This week we got to travel to Ottawa as well, and it was beautiful to see the countryside, and it reminded me a lot of the United States... it felt good to come back to Quebec haha.

Have a great day! We love you!
