Hey everyone! This week was weird with all the changes in
communication with families. But it should be awesome! Now we have an excuse to
extend the mission to 3 years! (sorry, love you mom). But this week was super
busy and productive for us. Sunday we brought 9 people to church and it was a
fun interchange between sacrament and classes trying to get everyone in the
right place. But it all worked out. My ward is super great with receiving new
people.
This week we spent a lot of time helping the new Hispanic family
and getting to translate. We will probably baptize the grandma Saturday. If all
goes well I will enter the water with my comp Elder Garcia and we will both
help her be baptized. She has a few physical problems and so we will have two
people in the water to make sure it all goes well. Pray for her.
Fun story... Elder Garcia lost his name tag and wallet. He was
really sad and a bit shaken. But we prayed and helped him have faith that it would
all work out. After church a drunken guy entered with his name tag looking for
Elder Garcia and praised him for being a man of god. And then after we got home
he found his wallet waiting on the table. Tender mercies are the best!!!
We have lots of people to work with and couldn’t be more happy. On the 26th we
will have transfers and are praying to both stay in the area with our families.
But God knows best.
We also started a challenge with all the members to invite three
people to church and accompany them. It can be friends, family, or that person
you meet in the grocery store line. We are having lots of success with this.
I would like to extend the challenge to you all for this week. It can really
make a difference in their lives but even in yours. God is always looking for
excuses to bless us. Help him out ;)
I love you all and miss you. Hope you all have a great week! Let
me know how the challenge went!
Love, Elder Lee
