This week Pierre was baptized! It was an amazing service. I told a little of Pierre's conversion story before but he has one of the coolest conversion stories and now one of the strongest testimonies I have ever met. He gained a testimony of the Book of Mormon literally over night as he listened to Book of Mormon on audio during a night shift. Over 50 chapters in one night. After meeting with missionaries for almost a year and as soon as that happened he was all in. And he loves the gospel.
He also has a super cool
testimony of the priesthood because last Sunday his leg and hip were hurting
and they have been for a while, but during church it was tingling really bad
and went numb so he asked if we could give him a blessing. During that blessing
I felt really prompted to command his Sciatic nerve to be healed. I probably
spelled that wrong because I don't even really know what a sciatic nerve is,
but a few days later we got a text from him that I'll never forget. it said:
"Guys hello last Sunday you
anointed me about my left leg now I fell better I am agree with priesthood
authority is from Lord Jesus Christ because is healing oil never seen
miracle"
He's African so it didn't make
100% sense.. But it was really cool.
I also have a new companion Elder
Sessions!
Love you all have a great
Christmas! Remember the true meaning of Christmas. To remember Christ and how
he can change us, just like he changed Pierre and like he's changed me. I know
that he was born and that He lives today.
And I'll see you in a few days
family!!
Love Elder Cox
