What a week!!
some crazy weather here, that is for sure. i dont think it has stopped snowing
in at least 7 days haha and the winds are up to like 50 mph so yeah! but i am
getting used to it. i will walk outside in negative temperatures without any
winter gear other than my coat and it doesnt phase me too bad haha. its weird
that 25 degrees is like no-coat weather now. man, my mom is gonna kill me for
saying that stuff. anyways...
sues baptism
was great!! soo wonderful. i was lucky enough to get to confirm her yesterday
and that was incredible as well!! she is truly a choice daughter of our
Heavenly Father! also yesterday, carl and dana draher spoke in sacrament
meeting, so that was awesome to hear their testimonies and things. then pres
thomas called me up to give an impromptu talk haha but i really enjoyed it. it
was a great sunday!!
so we met with
steve finally again this past week. he texted us and we got over to his place.
he has had some legal issues lately, and may be in jail before too long. but,
if not, he committed to come to church next week! so thats positive! haha
danielle came
to church this week and committed to a new baptismal date on the 22nd of feb.
this is the same danielle that we taught on dec 14. her life is getting a
little more stable and she LOVED church. this branch is incredible.
we also taught
a woman named teresa this week in her home with a deacon from her methodist
church. they both felt the Spirit of the Restoration. we will be meeting again
with her soon. wish i had more time to tell you the full story, but that will
have to wait for another time.
ryen, the 9
year old daughter of a single mother in the branch told us she would like to be
baptized. so we taught her yesterday and set a baptismal date for feb 8th. that
is going to be great. she is the nicest little girl and is excited about the
gospel!
I love the
lyrics to the song How Great Thou Art:
And when i
think
of God His Son
not sparing
sent Him to die
I scarce can
take it in
Then on the
cross
my burden
gladly bearing
He bled and
died
to take away my
sin.
Jesus Christ
was our perfect example in all things. I hope that one day I will be able to
return and meet Him again. I am thankful for the Prophet Joseph Smith. I cannot
wait to meet him. I am thankful for everything he revealed about our Savior. I
am above all else thankful for Jesus Christ. We truly cannot merit anything of
ourselves. Yet He wants us to be able to have all that He and His Father
have.
How could the
Father tell the world,
of sacrifice,
of death
He sent His Son
to die for us
and rise with
living breath
What does the
Father ask of us?
what do the
scriptures say?
Have faith,
have hope, live like His Son,
help others on
their way.
Have a great
week,
Elder
