Week 51: the spirit of knocking

Scout Benson

Hello loves!! This week was long and short and just everything. Our day today is crazy so this is gonna be a short one, but here's some cool stuff from this week!! 


- we felt prompted to go to a certain apartment complex. Background, this place makes me uneasy. I don't like a lot of people that live there. But we felt prompted. So we went. We walked around a little bit, felt prompted to knock a door, got scared, left, came back, knocked the door, and met tierrel. He was so kind and talked to us for a while. He seemed mildly interested, but told us about his daughter Tajana, who would be SUPER interested. It was a cool miracle!!! 

- we had zone conference this week which was wonderful. Full of revelation and spirit filled teaching. 

- we got to do a super fun game with the mansfields, which reviewed the baptismal interview questions! We're so close!!! 

- rhonda opened up to us about some things that are holding her back from baptism which was such a miracle and we pray we can now help her move forward. 


Not the most exciting week, but we pray the next one is!! We plan to set a date for the mansfields to get baptized, we're looking at the 26th at this point. Please pray hard, Satan is WORKING on that family. 


If you read this far!! Favorite Bible scripture, one place you'd love to visit, and bonus! Send us an easy cheap recipe!! 


Love you all!!! Praying always ❤️ God loves you

  Happy Tuesday morning!! ☀️☀️ it’s a lovely day so far:) Ok! So here’s an experience I have been feeling like I want to share with you all: Maybe a week ago? Ish? I was in the temple for to do initiatories. I can’t remember if I had an appointment or I was just walking in… I think I was just walking in.  The PCC temple has a really good system for helping people who walk in w/out an appointment be able to do initiatories. However after they got my name and all that jazz they asked me to sit in the front area where the desk is instead of in the back near the booths bc the benches back there were full. This was sorta upsetting to me, I had gone that day really hoping to be able to feel the spirit. But being up there near the desk meant I had to try and tune out all the happenings and chatting there. Recently I’ve discovered that when I’m anxious I can get pretty sound sensitive. So if there’s any noise going on it can completely overwhelm me with anxious thoughts.  I start...
