"there were angels filling the cavern behind us and a feeling of complete peace came over her".....Week 83

So I'm not sure if I wrote about this yet but one of our investigators that was just baptized recently had a really cool dream and I wanted to share it with you all! This was before she was baptized and still praying for an answer to know if this was true. 

She said she had a dream that she was in a large cave and that it became pitch black. She said there was no light at all and she was walking around for a long time trying to find her way out. As she was walking she said she saw a light and as it came closer and closer she noticed it was a catholic priest (she was catholic before) holding a candle and a bible and he motioned for her to follow him. She said she thought this must have been her answer. She started to follow him when all of the sudden a brilliant bright light burst from behind her filling the whole cavern with light. She turned around and saw us, the two missionaries, and we were holding the Book of Mormon. She said there were angels filling the cavern behind us and a feeling of complete peace came over her. She came to us and as she turned around the priest was gone. She woke up and knew she needed to be baptized.  She texted us the next morning telling us she was ready. 

I thought that was a pretty cool dream haha:) 

Everything is going great for us right now! Our investigators are progressing. I'm having a blast, and we are eating good. I don't think a missionary could ask for more haha:) 

I'm in a pretty cool area right now. I have grown to love it more and more. There are people from every part of the world and I love all of them. From Pakistan to China to Lithuania all the way to Tonga and Samoa, New Zealand, all of South America. We meet with them all. And I have really just come to see how similar we all are. How we truly are all God's children. They are all so kind and loving. 

Today we will go ice skating. We are taking some of our asian inv. with us and it will be awesome and so funny to see them try it for the first time! I will send some pics next week of it! 

A cool experience we had the other night is every friday here we do a zone game night where if you bring some investigators and all that you can come. We start with a song and prayer, then a spiritual thought, then some games. I shared the spiritual thought last week and after as we were playing some volleyball one of our investigators came up to me and asked if she could ask me a question. We went off to the side and she began telling me about her up bringing, She has only been in Australia for a month from China.  She said in China the teachers tell all the kids that there is no God. They say it is all a lie and you should trust in yourself not something you can't see. She then asked me if God really does hear our prayers.  I told her He does. We talked about it for a bit then she asked, Why does God let bad things happen to good people? We talked for a while about it and she got kinda teary. She said she had been asking that question for a long time but that no one had been able to give her an answer until now. She said thank you thats all, and we kept on playing. She came to church this Sunday and loved it. Se is really awesome. 

Well I hope you all have a smash week!
I love you all!
