The right oil does make a diferance
We just started teaching a family that has pigs. And the lady who wanted to learn more about the church because she said the every time the missioners came over she felt really good about the church. They are part of the family in Trebul, so we went there to met them. The place had a dark feeling about it and it was hard to be there. We ask she about what was going on in her life and how long it had been since the missioners had been there. Her name is Cleofa and she said that it had been and year since they had been there and that she had a problem with one of her toes and it was bothering her. We invited her to church and she said that she would be ready. When Sunday came we stopped to pick her up and she was ready, also three other people decided to go, so we loaded them up and away we went. She really enjoyed the car ride she sat in the seat like a queen on her way to the prom. Any way to make a long story short she has gone to church for three weeks now. And the last time we was at the place I notice that the pigs skin was getting really rough and started to bleed, so I told them to get some used motor oil and put it on the pigs .
The next time we was there they hadn 't done anything yet. So I told Connie to stop by a oil place and we would get some oil for the pigs and also the bring some lavender oil that we have to help the lady. When we got there I put the motor oil on the pigs and Connie put lavender oil on the Cleofas toe, and we stopped there two days later with missioners to see them and check up on the pigs, and you know what they are both doing great. The toe look great and the pigs are doing a lot better too. And since she has been going we have had a lot better attendance at church. Three weeks ago we had 35 then two weeks ago 38 and last week 43 and even Pres. hatch came with his two counselors to check out the place. It was great, of course I think that it because me and Connie work really hard to pant the building and put a bath room in it, but who knows. All I know is that with our numbers up like this it would not be long before we will be a branch.
So a little oil goes a long way, and the feeling there has changed a lot, you can feel the spirit of the gospel there now. We love the way the gospel works in the lives of the people.
