Dear Family,
Thank you so much for mailing out the
package. It sounds perfect. You guys are the absolute best!
Now about this week. It was wonderful! We have
been working extremely hard everyday and it has been fun to see the small fruits
of our efforts. And I was thinking, this time right now really is the best time
in my mission for me to just give it absolutely everything that I have. Because why not...I understand the language, I have a good companion and a wonderful ward
to serve in right now. Everything is just set up for us to have success here and
this week we are going to go all out to get everyone in Machala baptized haha :)
It's been scaring me lately how short of time I have left... I felt a giant wave
of anxiety to be able to complete all that I want in this two years and I have found
some amazing scriptures that God has given us. For instance D&C 64:32-35
talks about not worrying because God works at his own pace, and councils us to
never cease to do good but only to press forward with faith. And it's so true
and it's not just a principle in the mission, it is a principle that we all have
to learn for every aspect of our lives. To just not worry and know that if we
continue in obedience and with patience, God will always pull through.
I love this gospel and I am excited to keep working. Sorry I didn't
really have any cool investigator stories this week but I promise I will soon!
