I am also really excited for the next transfer. I get to stay in Passaic!!!! :)
I love it here and I love the people. Also I am really excited and feel really
blessed because this transfer I will be able to serve with a new
missionary as a trainer. We had a meeting with the mission pres and he
was able to speak of our responsibility and the sacredness of this calling. I
honestly feel so grateful for this opportunity to help and serve this
missionary and I know I will learn a lot from this experience and that I will
learn more from him than he will from me. But I am just really excited and feel
really blessed. Plus I get to do it in the best place ever!! (for missionary
work) Passaic :)
Oh also I
want to tell you about this guy we met this last week. We were just
walking down the streets and some sketchy looking guy stops his car and then
asks us if we need a ride or want some food or anything. At first I was
thinking well that is wierd.. What is he going to do to us.. Then we got
talking to him and it was a really cool story. He talked about how he was
baptized in guetamala as a member of our church. but then got lost heavy into
living the life on the streets. pretty much doing all of the above. went to
jail and everything, then in jail he read a lot came back out and has been
gaining more faith in God. That is why he stopped us. He told us how much he
loves us and what it means to him that we are out here doing this and then he
was willing to give us anything he litterally was willing to give us the shirt
off his back. We later went to his house and had a great lesson with
him. I dont know I dont think I am good at explaining but it was
such a Miracle because we could just see how much that man truly loved God but
just got caught up doing the wrong things but he really was such a good man,
and how much God loves him and is reaching out to him to bring him back. He
told us how whenever he sees any Elder, he can feel a glow and feels like he is
looking at angels. It made me feel grateful even more to be out here and
strengthened my testimony even more.
We also
have another investigator whose name is Radolfo. and that man is great. He
knows the gospel is real and true and wants to be baptized now he just needs to
do it :)
I have
really come to learn even more this week how to follow the spirit and to
recognize the small miracles that happen. I cant really explain it but I have
seen Gods hand blessing me so much this week and it is through small things
that I used to not recognize but now that I do I realize the reality of God and
that this work really is true because of the spirit I feel. That is the coolest
thing I learned
So yes that
was my week, Pretty good huh? so sweet you are finished with school dad!!! cool
beans.
I guess I
probably should get going but yeah I am in Passaic so I am not against you
sending some pics and a package ;) like you said haha.
I pray for
you all everyday. Pray for me.
The Gospel
is so true and amazing. Jesus Christ lives and is our Savior, this is His work
and it is real. THe Book of Mormon is true and God is our Heavenly Father.
Joseph Smith saw God the Father and Jesus Christ and we have the Priesthood
Authority of God. It is great.
