Hello! It sounds like life is going wonderful there. Life is just oh so dandy here! This week has been insane. Flown by and also gone by oh so very slow. I guess that is how it always goes! But mostly it flies by.
The Mission President was there and said the missionaries can now us Facebook. What the!!
2-Has your mission heard anything about that?
2. Yes please! When Elder Cornish was here he mentioned it! I honestly have not heard anything since then about it though. So I don’t know!!
3-What has been the most testimony building experience of your mission so far?
3. Hmmmmmm….. That is tough mama. I don’t think I could say just one testimony building experience. Because I have them everyday. One from this week has been having a really rough day on Thursday.
Thursday: OK SO. Thursday was just a normal morning. We went to go and see one of our Progressing Investigators who has a baptismal date and we cried all morning trying to know how we could help her. We talked to Elder A. one of the ZL’s and he said we might just have to give her a drop lesson. So we watched Mormon Messages and tried to decide which one she could use the most. And cried our faces off. Then we went to go see Sister N. and she said she was too busy to meet with us…. So we left and as we are driving away. One of our other progressing investigators called and said he didn’t want us to go and see him anymore and dropped us like we were hot………….. SO THEN…. We went to another of our investigators houses and she told that she needed us to take her to the store and we explained to her that we couldn’t take people in our car. She started yelling at us and told us we were “ramblers”….. Hahahaha I can laugh about it now… But at the time it was not funny at all. Let’s just say that I have had better days in my life.
4-Are you doing good at being totally obedient?
4. I am def being good at being totally obedient! There is not any other way to live. Thank you for caring and checking up on me mama! Sometimes we chew gum in public, go swimming, and wake up at ten o’clock a.m. But that is no big deal. PSYCH!!! Yes I am being a good girl.
5-Are your people still headed to baptism?
5. HMMMMMM…. Well basically. No…. We have one solid baptism. That is Brother K. He is the bomb.com. His baptismal date is September 7th. And that is for real. That is in next transfer so I hope I am still here 🙂 He comes to church every sunday, reads the BOM everyday… TWO CHAPTERS A DAY! Yeah he is solid. Other than that everyone is slowly progressing and we have many very cool people it is just that there is much lack of commitment…. We are having lots of success it just doesn’t show in the baptism area 🙂 The other baptism is N. that I talked about earlier…. She doesn’t really have a date anymore but she was so close to baptism that we even had her whole baptism set up… Then I am not sure what happen…. OH WAIT… Satan… Wah. It is very sad. It ha been hard.
6-Is it still raining a lot?
6. It rained really hard the last couple of days! But in between it is hotter than hot! I love the rain though. I am starting to get cold here. Which scares me because I am going home in December. So if I get cold here… WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME IN UTAH??? Hahahaha when it rains here the people whip out there shower caps, it is hysterical. Also this guy was wearing a huge puffy coat while it was raining the other day. We just laugh…
I hope you are doing great Mommy! I sure do love and appreciate all you do and have done for me. Tell everyone to write me letters! Have a great week!
Sometimes it may seem pointless to be out here battling against every religion… There are millions of religions here. It is crazy. BUT I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is indeed the same church that Jesus Christ established. I KNOW IT and I will always share it because I love it! It has brought so much happiness and peace to my life. I will do whatever I can to help people to find out what I have found out.
Scripture of the week: Helamen 5:12 How firm a foundation!!!! AWWWW 🙂 How firm is your foundation?
I love you one and all! Have a great week! I know I will! Keep being awesome! Stay excellent! 🙂
