I didn't get my package and I probably won't get it until
the following week! You only receive packages during interviews,
transfers, and when the zone leaders go to Cali every beginning of the
month. So they go to Cali next Wednesday which means that is when I will probably get it.
As
for this week it was good. We had some pretty cool experiences. That
family that we figured out wasn't married, we taught them the law of
chastity. It was good. Last night
they told us that they are probably going to get married. They have
lived together for 17 years and they are going to get married because we
taught them that it was right. That makes me pretty happy.
H F V has been taking the lessons for more than three years and comes to church every Sunday
and prays and has lessons with us but he wouldn't read his Book of
Mormon. We decided that all our lessons we were just going to read the
Book of Mormon with him. Well we read the introduction that says all the
things you should do to know it is true. Then the testimony of the
three and 8 witnesses and part of Joseph Smiths testimony. He really
livened up during that lesson.
Later that week we
had a FHE with some members and some investigators. The video we wanted
to show wouldn't work so we showed one on the Book of Mormon. He said the
closing prayer and he couldn't finish the prayer because he was overcome
with the Spirit.
A few days later we had a
lesson with him. I was talking to his daughter, a member of 3 years, and
she told me that he started reading his Book of Mormon. During that
lesson he said that his baptism is very close. So tomorrow we are going to ask him to be baptized on the 10th of June.
I also had to give a talk in church yesterday.
It was on missionary work. Not for missionaries for members. The 12
apostles said that the role of full time missionaries is to simply help
the warm members with the missionary work. As members we can do so much.
Always remember that.
Anyways, other than that it was a pretty normal week. I hope all is going well and tell Katelyn congratulations for me!
I am doing good and staying obedient! Love you guys! Until next week!
Con Amor,
Elder Reese
