Hello Everyone!!
Not gonna lie, this week has been a
pretty slow week. I think it may have been because I was so excited for conference!
It has been really hard to find new people to teach. A lot of them think that
what were are doing is great and they wish us luck but none of them want to
hear our message. One of the members said that he had a comp on his mission
that ran into a lot of Catholics, he said that one time when someone answered
the door and said that they were
Catholic his companion replied " Hey Elder, do we teach Catholics?" his companions companion said "I think we do." He then turned back to the person at the door and said " Yes we definitely teach Catholics too." I am super tempted to give this a try haha not sure if it would really work, but it is what I feel like saying! We have had some awesome lessons with some of the less active members though. We have been trying to get a specific family to read from the Book Of Mormon every day together and they haven't been doing so hot. When we saw

them on Friday, we
felt that we should ask them how they 1st gained their testimony of the Book Of
Mormon. Talk about an inspired question! They both bore their testimonies to us
about the Book Of Mormon and of the Prophet Joseph Smith. The spirit was there
and it was SO strong! Through a few more inspired questions ( I say inspired
because I know that there is no way I would have come up with them on my own) I
truly think that because of the feeling that they felt, they will read together
every day! I am so excited to see them again this week and see how much they
progressed! If I am this excited for them, I cannot even imagine how our Heaven
Father feels! I'm sure that he feels that way every time any of his children
succeed!
Conference was amazing! I actually really listened and paid attention to every talk haha. There were so many great messages that were shared. I know that a lot of them really hit home for me and made me want to change and become so much better! I hope you all got a chance to watch it!
Yes, I'm tracting an out house... |
New York is great! It is finally starting to get a little bit colder and I won't be surprised when there is snow on the ground in the next 2 weeks. I love and miss you all!
Love
