Well I got transferred! It’s
weird cause I have 14 months in the mission and this is only my 3rd ward that I’ve
been in. But I feel that I’ve been able to help people in the wards that I’ve
been in and more importantly learn from the amazing people that I have met. It’s
kind of hard getting transferred because we have to leave behind all the people
that become like our families here. But I’ll always remember them!
So my first week in
this new sector we were walking down the street on our way to an appointment. We
were looking for people to contact and all the sudden a door comes flying open
and a little boy runs out into the streets to greet us. It kind of scared us and
we were kind of confused. His mom walked outside and saw us and just started
crying. We spoke with them and the sister explained to us that she is a member
of the church and that she hadn’t been going for years. She told us that her
son had been sick for weeks throwing up. The sister didn’t have any money to go
to the doctor so her son had just been lying in bed sick for days. She was praying
for help when all the sudden her son sits up in bed and runs outside and finds
us. We gladly gave him a blessing and her and her son both went to church this
Sunday. Me and my companion were both shocked at how perfect God’s plan is and
how obvious it is that we are just instruments here in God’s hands. And it’s so
true. The only reason I’m here is to help my brothers and sisters that are here
that don’t know about the gospel of Jesus Christ and that we have prophets and
apostoles and the authority of God here on the earth today. It really is a
blessing to be here helping people :)
So far I like my new
sector! There are lots of people to teach and we are already seeing some people
that will be baptized soon! I’m going to be the English teacher here in this
zone again so that will be fun to help the other elders!
I’m putting up some of
the pictures from the last few weeks!
Thanks for all your
support and love. Keep praying for us please :)
