Dearest family and friends,
It's been a busy week in Lynbrook. We've had a few really great miracles!
First miracle is Teiria (pronounced taedia). She is a 17-year-old girl and was referred to us by one of the members in our ward. On Monday night we went to stop by and meet her and seriously she is cool as! She is really fun and really interested in learning about the church. Her boyfriend is a member and she says that he doesn't really know how to answer all her questions (typical teenagers haha) so we taught her a bit that night and shared our testimonies with her and then made another appointment to teach her Wednesday. On Wednesday she came to the stake president's house with her boyfriend and we taught a lesson to her with Shannen, the stake president's daughter who just got back from her mission. We showed her the Restoration video and it was really great! The spirit was really strong and we were able to help her understand much more. It was funny at one point when she made a comment that we basically summarized two years of her questioning her boyfriend in 20 minutes. Teiria was supposed to come to church as well, but she ended up being out of town so we will have to try next week! But so far things are looking great with her!
We were also able to get a couple more members to come to lessons with us this week. It was the most we've had since I've been here in Lynbrook and we have a few lessons this week that members have agreed to come to with us. The work is really moving forward right now! It's so exciting!
Last update for the week. We found out yesterday that Sister Santos is getting transferred to a different area this week. It's sad to see her go so soon, but I know that President Maxwell is inspired and that she is needed elsewhere at the moment.
Love yous heaps!
Sister Bingham
