This week has been a really good week. I went on my first exchange with
the other elders in my district. It was really fun to meet their
investigators and help them get pointed in the right direction. Well, I am so
blessed to be able to be out on a mission and it is awesome to be able
to walk these streets and be the only light that these people see. I
don't think I have seen so many people so grateful just for the little
things in their lives. Most of the people where I teach are super poor
and they would give their right arm just to help the missionaries. I
love every one of these people even the ones that as we walk the streets
flip us off and swear at us. I wish I could just stop some of them and
help them get pointed in the right direction.
This week we had every one
of our six investigators show up to church
this Sunday! It was so awesome to see them and they want to keep coming! We are
teaching this one family, they are super poor and are so grateful just
for us to stop by and say hi! The mom's name is April and she has been
baptized already, but she wants to be the example to her kids and go to
the temple. She is taking every step to get there and it is awesome to
see her change and how the gospel can bless people's lives!
This is
one of my favorite quotes from conference: " if a man can restore a
completely destroyed and ruined city, how much more capable is your Heavenly Father in restoring you?" -Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Love You ALL!
