Dear Family,
This week has been great!
The ward reported 90% Home Teaching in the last quarter, with our
help :). So I told the bishop to give us a list of people that were not
visited so we could hit 100%! Also Elder Holland is coming to our stake
conference in a few weeks so the stake president asked all the
missionaries to visit every member of the ward (starting with less
active memebers) and invite them to come. So I made a flyer to pass out
to everyone and invite them to Stake Conference! So we should hit closer
to 100% home teaching in the ward this quarter! I spend a ton of time
inputing all of the people on the ward list into my gps, but now we can
have a digital list of people that we have not visited and sweet through
them super quick! I'm excited! We are really trying to inspire the zone
and motivate them to take this challenge seriously and make the effort
to visit everybody!
This week was pretty slow. We had leadership training this week from 9am to 4pm. It went pretty well and we learned a ton!
We found out this week that one of our investigators is living with
his girlfriend and so we will need to teach him more and prepare him
more for his baptisimal date of February 22nd. Its amazing to see the
transformation in him so far! As of 2 weeks ago he had no belief in God,
only in a higher power. But now he is praying and reading the Book of
Mormon! So cool!
Sorry this is really short but we are running low on time!
I love you all!
Love,
Elder John
"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have
into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order,
confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feaast, a house into a
home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past,
brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow"- Ray L.
