Hello, this is Elder Record and today
is the 3rd of January.
This week was pretty good. We got to go
to a lot of the members' activities and really get to know the
members. They are really starting to like us, especially Elder Leota
(haha). It's been very good. One thing I really liked this week was
our district meeting. At the beginning we went around the room and
everybody said what their most embarrassing moment was (haha), what
their favorite dessert was, and then their favorite scripture. When
it got to me, for my favorite scripture, I put Ether
12:27. The Spirit was there very strong. And, yeah, through that
whole district meeting the Spirit was very strong. We did a little
bit of role playing on how we can help less active members become
stronger. It was very effective, and I think it will help us a lot. I
really liked it because the Spirit was there so strong.
This week we have been going through
some of these less active people the bishop wanted us to visit with.
On P-day we had ward games (haha). Just
yesterday on Monday. It was also a holiday so we couldn't email. We
went to the ward games and played a lot of basketball and volleyball.
Things here are going well. I look forward to seeing what will
continue to happen. I love you all.
I know the Gospel is true. I am
thankful for the opportunity to be a missionary. I'm learning a lot.
I'm learning a lot of patience (haha). I learning how to, not only
become a better missionary, but a
better person. So I'm very thankful for the opportunities, the
blessings and the challenges that I've had, because I think I'm
growing much stronger because of them. I'm thankful for the Book of
Mormon, and I know it's true. I'm thankful for my Savior, and all
that He did for me and for us. I know that He lives. I know that
Joseph Smith was a prophet. I know that Thomas S. Monson is a prophet
today. I love the Gospel and I say these things in the name of Jesus
Christ, amen.
Love, Elder Record
