MISSION MIRACLES

*1   ELDER HOPOATE & EZEKIELA along with ELDER OLSON & SAULALA 
found, taught and baptized a part-member family of Tongan heritage; parents joined in Sydney.  They are a wonderful family!  


*2     MIRACLE OF FASTING.
A wonderful mother and her kids have been investigating the church for almost a year;  missionaries after missionaries taught them but the mother hesitated to attend church or either be baptized. Elder Robison and I (Elder Falevai) decided that we will fast for her and her family that they would accept to be baptized.  With other help from missionaries and members we set a baptismal date for her but she was still not showing any progress. We decided to fast and pray for her and apply what Elder Pearson taught in his method of daily contact by sending uplifting messages to her family each week.   Also, on our last trip to the Temple we decided to fast for her again and take it to the house of the Lord before baptism on the 26th of October. To our surprise Susan texted us and said that she is ready and she has felt that it will be the right thing. Her youngest daughter joined her mother and agreed to be baptized.    I would also like to acknowledge in our miracle the help of elder Dudley, Elder Lam, Elder Field and Elder Reiri.

  



*3.  MIRACLE OF CHANGE
This amazing man experienced a lot of challenges in life:  family problems, drugs and even
ending up in the jail.  But the missionaries knocked on his Sister-in-law's home and  they started
teaching him.  He was a Golden investigator but still had a lot of vices in life. But his life was changed when he started listening to the missionaries.  He expressed  "I want to change and I want to be nearer to God".   So much gratitude in his heart to those missionaries.This good member of the Church is now a greeter every Sunday.   He has changed his Life! 
So grateful to be a part of his conversion: Elder Garcia & Elder Niania
