Hey everybody,
Things are going really good here. Sadly I had to send my other
companion home because he was done with his mission. It was sad to see
him go but it had to happen, but this last week with him was really
good. We got an investigator on date for August 1. He is really
prepared. We went over the holy ghost in the role of it. We helped
him to recognize the Holy Ghost and the feelings he had when he read
from the book of Mormon. That is what really helped him decide to be
baptized. It was really cool because when he said that he wanted to be
baptized his wife who was sitting next to him shouted I want to come
back to church. She was just waiting for him to make the first move.
It was really cool to see.
We are doing a lot of work on the reservation too. We had a family
that we've been working with come to church for the second week in a
row. Last week we had two young girls who haven't come to church yet
come. It's really cool to see the benefits and blessings of our
labors.
We had MLC this week as well. They talked a lot about agency and
responsibility. They mentioned that we need to be 100% responsible for
the things that we control. We should not blame others when we do not
see success but do all we can to ensure success. It was a really good
discussion.
We also had a fantastic Fourth of July. It started off with us helping
Show Low by checking in floats for the parade. That was a good way to
meet people and have them See us. Then we got to watch the parade. It
was pretty cool. That lasted for about an hour then we went home and
showered shaved and got ready for the day. We then went to panda
express for lunch it was delicious. Then it pretty much rain for the
rest of the day. Try to go contacting people but we got soaked. We had
dinner with the bishop that night. He was having a barbecue and they
invited families from the ward.
On Sunday we went to church till about 12. Then we had to go home get
Elder Sorensen's luggage packed into the truck and drove to Showlow
where we dropped him off at. Then I went with Elder Anderson and
Morgan to their area for the next two days until I got my new
companion Elder Hinds. He is way cool. He is from Utah. Who would've
guessed. But I did have a good time with Elder Anderson and Morgan.
They are really good missionaries. It was really cool because we went
to a young single adult activity and two people I work with in
snowflake were there and I was able to reminisce of the good old
times back when I served in Taylor and Snowflake. It was so good to
see them.
It is definitely a little bit stressful taking over an area after only
being there for 6 weeks but I know the lord will help us through it.
Well things are going good here and we receive miracles every day. The
work is true the book is blue and where that red white and blue.
Love you all,
Love
