Friends and Family,
Well I can definitely say that this week felt like 3 weeks.
Not that it was bad but it was just slow. WE had some good success but just
took a long time. But lets get to the news shall we?
A, our original baptismal date is not going terribly
well... He doesn't come to church and he lacks desire. He is trying to quit
drinking tea and he is reading the BoM, so that is good, but he lacks desire to
go to church because of work on Saturday nights. So we are working with him on
that front.
D is 19 and he was a reference from the ward mission
leader. He lives with his dad and his mom lives in a different city. He used to
work at the grocery store but lost his job for some reason. He received us well
and we have met with him a few times already. Last time we talked to him about
Alma and how he baptized people and the picture in the front of the BoM. When
he saw the picture he immediately said he wanted to be baptized. So we
scheduled him for the 18th of April to give him and us time to teach. The
trouble with him right now is he hasn't been to church yet because he lives far.
So we are trying to get a ride for him but no one really lives over there. So
that's where we are at with him.
Well, those are the 2 most important people we are visiting
right now. So if you could mention them in your prayers that would be awesome.
I'm getting a new
scripture case! The one that I have now lets water through, so I can’t use it
without a plastic bag... BUT I talked to a member and he said he knows a women that makes leather cases like the one I got in the MTC! So I'm
getting one of those shipped here! Super cheap now too because of the exchange
rate! It won’t even be 40 dollars! The leather will keep it dry. I tried with my
other one using the faucet and it worked way better. I have been using grocery
bags to keep them dry. Elder Betts has a leather bag. Other missionaries use plastic bags.
We taught 13 lessons
last week. This week if everything goes like it should we should have at least
15. We have lunch appointments every day except P-day. And they RARELY fall.
Its awesome! I LOVE THE PEOPLE HERE!!! They are just so welcoming! They
are super nice and the fact that I can understand them makes it good too :} I
understand 90%. Church is getting easier every Sunday.
Now for a bit of stuff for the littler ones!
You guys, do what your parents say. Don't get them mad at you
cause you wont have them to get after you forever! Be grateful you have them
and every once in a while do something to help them out. They get tired too but
the difference is they cant just go home and sleep like kids can. They gotta
keep going until the end! Remember to be grateful for them in your lives and do
them a service. Also, remember to read your scriptures and say your prayers
everyday. These things are SO essential. Don't let these things take the back
seat. Even if its just one verse, just do it! It makes all the difference
later!
Well everyone, take good care of yourselves and have an
awesome week.
Love you guys,
Elder George
