Saturday morning, Elder S., Brother
C., and I got to help Brother S. with a yard project. It was a sweet way to end
the week for sure!
Yes, I'm keeping a journal on my
mission. I heard a quote recently and it said "It doesn't matter how often
you write in a journal, it just matters that you write one." SO I've been
doing that, and just writing maybe twice a week while Elder S. is doing
district leader call ins, and it's been pretty neat.
Yes, we
download videos from the gospel library app and use those (Mormon messages and
such). Its way handy!
These past weeks in Huntersville
have been very positive. The members are excited about going out teaching
with us. Probably the biggest blessing for the area has been J. He came to
church last week and this past Friday he accepted a baptismal date for the 14th
of February!! Everyone here is so excited for him! Throughout teaching J., I've
learned to rely more on prayer and the Spirit. As we pray and plan with the
Spirit how best to help J., we have seen Heavenly Father's hand in the work. He
has helped us know which lessons to teach, what members to bring with us, and
how to help J. come to church. He has also been answering J.'s prayers. The day
after accepting his baptismal date, he told us he was reading in the Book of
Mormon in Alma 34:3-5 and he felt the Spirit tell him that he needed to get
baptized, and that this was the right step! It was the best!!. He loves the
Book of Mormon, loves the members, and loves the feeling he gets at church. We
are so excited to see him make this, and future covenants. He has some health
concerns so please pray for him and his health.
Well, I sure love ya! Thanks for the
emails and pictures and prayers!! Please pray for J., and for more people for
us to teach! Thanks so much! Ya'll are the best!
