Not all investigators are the same

This week was a rush I will tell an experience that happened. Not all investigators are the same, they are very different in needs and in responses to invites that we leave with them. This week we had two different responses between the two women we baptized recently.

1. Filismina: The elect. She was found by Elders that arrived before me in the street. She is from Angola. She has two kids and they are the greatest. She was taught the restoration and accepted baptism right away. She already lived all the commandments. She arrives at church 30 minutes before any of the actual members and she arrived at her own baptism an hour before anyone else. That is what we call an elect.

2. Epifania: Another type of elect. She was found a couple of weeks ago. She has gone through a couple of difficulties in her life. She was not living all the commandments when we found her. She had headaches and other illnesses the day she was supposed to be confirmed. We had to call a taxi so that she could arrive in the church. 

Both were baptized but they show that people are different. Everyone needs what we have, not depending on what ever circumstances that they have or commandments they are or aren't living now. Everyone is a child of god and needs to grow closer to him through baptism.
