Dear Mom and Dad!
How are you guys doing?? I loved your letters! That is a
really cool experience you had dad with letting that man get re-baptized! :) I
see the joy of that a lot, and it is like seeing a little piece of heaven on
earth! Also I love the idea of the golf league! I could not help but smile at
that, and I will definitely be joining that when I get back! :) The Pictures
are awesome! Elder Merrill and I were just talking about how much we want a
Hires burger as well as some good training table fries! :) He is an awesome
companion! WE are literally like the same person just in different bodies haha
we think exactly the same, and we get along so well! Our kids are doing
great!
As for our ZL duties, tomorrow our zone has interviews with
President here in Jinotepe. This is something normal that is done every three
months. However I have not had an interview with President Russell in 14 months
because of how much time I was in the office, and when the last interviews
came, I was in Bluefield 's!
The last time I had one was when I was in my last three weeks of Training in
Masaya! hahahaha I'm kind of nervous because we will talk about the zone, as
well as the area.... The Zone is throwing fire right now, we are just
struggling in the area... but we will see what happens! :) I am just trying to
have a positive attitude. Whatever he will tell me, i know it is inspired, and
is something I need to change! :)
I have been able to study a little bit in chapter 6 in PMG.
I figured out what needs to change, and I have goals and plans to put them in
practice! I really hope that my life and spirit can keep changing in these last
6 months. I have spent so long helping others that I have neglected my own
personally progress. I have started to read 15 minutes in the mornings and 15
minutes at night time of the BOM to help build my own personal testimony! Like
I said I hope to see the improvements in the coming weeks!
We have been trying so hard to find a ton of new
investigators this past week. We have found some really cool people! One of
them is a guy named Humberto! He is a son of a family of members. He is the
only one that is not member! He is wanting to change his life, and has some
problems but nothing is too big for the Atonement of Jesus Christ! He is progressing
for the 20th of June!
The other cool guy we are teaching right now is Denis. I
think I mentioned him in the last weeks email, but he is the guy that has 81
years and lives with his muchacha that is 50.... hahahaha She is super
catholic, and wants nothing with baptism, but Denis is AWESOME! I love teaching
that guy! He is so smart, and understands everything we teach! He is reading
the BOM right now, and is loving it! I love seeing people progress and slowly
watching the seed of faith get planted and watching the people wait anxiously
for the small plant break through the soil of their souls! It is super awesome!
:)
Sorry for the last week letter! I always try to be positive
and keep up the smile! But sometimes the world and all of the problems it carries
weighs a person down a lot.
I love you guys so much!
