Hello everyone!
This week was kept pretty busy! Zone P-Day last Monday was a BLAST! Hung out on the beach for hours and played lots of running games. I was sore for days. Best one yet. Afterwards, Had tradeoffs with Elder Fiame in West Branch. That was a ton of fun. While I was gone, Elder Boyd and Elder McGuire had some pretty great lessons, and Rob in Hale is now on date for baptism! AHH! Apparently he put himself on date, so that’s awesome. He’s progressed so for and feels very firm in his conviction to join and knows the church is true.
Yesterday, 4 of our investigators were at church!! FOUR of them!! That’s more than I have ever had in my mission so far. And they all live in Hale! 45 minutes away from the church building! So awesome.
This week we did 10 hours of service! That’s the max we are allowed to, and we definitely have seen blessings from it. It helps people to see that we are just normal guys, not just some pious preachers going door to door trying to convert people to our church.
Please pray for Angie and her children. Work is not letting her come to church, even though they promised they’d work out her schedule for it.
This morning Elder McGuire and I during studies RANDOMLY turned to Helaman Chapter 3 and read a verse about trees and discussed it. And we discussed a quote that says “The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The next best time is right now.” All of a sudden, I have a bunch of emails from friends and missionaries using that same quote, and President Jacobsen himself put it in the bottom of his letters to the missionaries for this week. Think of the meaning that has in your life. The best time would have been 20 years ago, or even 10, or even last week. But the next best time is right now. Make the changes you need to make. Change your environment, change your habits, and you will see the blessings come. Heavenly Father loves each and every one of you and so do I! Thank you all for your support and love!
Have a good week! Talk to you all later!
