This week has been full of
some great experiences. I'm really enjoying the work with my new companion; it
seems that for once I may have found a companion who loves these people as much
as me. It helps the work move along much more smoothly when we are on the same
boat. There are some missionaries who teach lessons, and not people because it’s
a little harder for them to connect with the investigators. Having a baptism is
much more rewarding when you know the person that is being baptized and have
seen all that they had to change and go through in order to get a remission of
their sins. It truly is incredible!
Like
the baptism that we had this weekend for our sister Johanna, she was disowned
by her family because she wanted to follow the example of her Savior. Times
like these are pretty difficult because Its hard for me to see my investigators
be treated like that by their own families just because of religion. Strange
how something that is made specifically to bring families together can
sometimes be the reason that families get torn apart. We promised her though
that the Lord has and will continue to work on the hearts of her parents. It
seems that no matter what the problems are that we face here on earth, the
solution is always the same- Following the savior will never lead us to
darkness!
I
love this work too much. I'm sorry that this week was short, and I'm still
trying to find a way to send pictures! It just takes so stinkn long.
I love you all! Have a great
week!
