Happy new year!!!!
Hey there everybody these past few weeks have been rough . Christmas time and New years no one seems like they want to listen to our message and it's been tough to get a hold of all the people that we have been teaching but nevertheless we have been blessed with miracles! We are teaching a young man called Connor right now he was found by contacting on the street and we met up with him and he loved our message. We have been meeting with him for a couple of weeks and his faith has just grown stronger! His parents are against the church and they have thrown him out countless times but that hasn't phased him in the slightest! We at first had counselled him to make things right with his parents and so we put off his date a few weeks but this past week we met with him and he said he knows its true and despite what his parents think he is going to be baptised. There is no question that they will throw him out again but this past Saturday he passed his baptismal interview and will be baptised on the 12th!
We are also teaching a family, the husband is a less active member and his wife is not a member they are the nicest people ever! They have so many good questions and we love going over there to answer them and talk about the plan of salvation with them. Unfortunately he has a lot of health problems so they are always at the hospital but we have great plans for them and know they will be a solid family in the church!
We have a few other people who we are working with. I'll tell you about a young man called Tim. He is 24 and he had back surgery so he was inactive for a while but has started coming back since I first got here and he is so funny and loves the gospel so much! He received his patriarchal blessing this past Sunday and he is preparing for a mission! he's been going out with us to street contact and knock so that's been awesome! we are working hard and miracles are happening here!
I just want to say how much I love the book of Mormon! I sometimes slack on my studies and I don't know what to read but the Lord always brings me back to the book of Mormon and I know its because that's the keystone to my testimony and I know that it's true. I have found how my answers to my questions can be answered and how it makes me want to be more like Christ! I love the book of Mormon so much! I really have felt its power in my life and especially on my mission!
This church is true!
