Week #11



no worries about the money II've got my bike and an electric dictionary whatever left will do me well enough if i ever get any souvenirs, thanks so much.
 
k ill just start by saying that, the lord hand is in nago so strongly, we have seen so many miracles lately we have a baptismal date with one investigator and and one who we only met two days ago but wants repentance and baptism. and others that are progressing so well. and thats just our companionship the other comp. has great things too. the ward is being strengthened there is a new bishop and the members are being strengthened.
 
for me the language is progressing slowly but surely, i have seen a few thing progressing, even though i don't have much chances to think about it.
my dorio has taken up the responsibility of trying to make me do all the contacting, which is good and i know its one of the best ways for me to get better but ahhh its hard at first. but i know that if i do my best and stay obedient the lord will fill my bind with the words to say and i have seen it happen.
 
it feels so much like home already, i'm stuck right now in that time limbo were it feels like every thing  goes by slowly and quickly at the same time. but i do feel like its crazy that my first transfers almost half over ,SOOO weird. the missionaries here are great, there such good elders and teachers to me. the members are cool too there are like 6 who went to BYU so there like fluent in ego.there all really nice and the little kids think I'm a jungle gym.
 
we do definitely bike allot since most of our time is spent tracting, but an upside to that is that its a good workout I'm down to around 290 so thats good. also i have had a few chances too draw , its all related to the work like i drew a picture of the plan of salvation. and was doing some flier ideas for some ward activities we might plan.
 
i just want you all to know that i love it out here i love there people and i understand the importance of this work, one thing i would like to challenge you all to do is read the book "the power of an every day missionary" its about member missionary work, and just remember this isn't just work for a missionary its the most important work we can do missionary or member. this doesn't mean you need to go tracting or anything just be as active as you can to help the missionaries in the areas and make the gospel, church callings and everything part of everything you do thinking back to what the home ward is like its crazy how big it is we have like around 15 active members and like 50 in-actives but every little things the members do to help is amazing to have. i know this church is true, i know of the importance of every member you all have a part to play, even if it doesn't seem it at times, don't loose sight of the important things and remember were it all comes from. our father in heaven blesses us more than we can comprehend. when you actively search for them and try to see you will, i know it.
i love you all and pray for you
your son and friend
