Whattup y'all, sorry I didn't send out an email last week.
So I got transferred again! I am now in Cheney Washington over the YSA ward. My
new address is 610 Villard Cheney WA 99004. I am now companions with
Elder Brunner from North Slat Lake UT. He is awesome and we get along great. I got transferred mid-week (4 days into my new area) after 2 elders left (one for visa, one for medical).
We
had a pretty busy week this week, this area has a lot of potential. We have one
investigator on date for baptism, his name is Naeem. He is awesome. He has already read to 2 Nephi 16! How awesome is that?? We found another new investigator this
week named Trevor. He is an atheist but he loved the idea of the plan of
salvation. He told us that if there was a God he would have a smart plan like
what we just shared with him.
Other than that we walk around the campus of
Eastern Washington University a lot. It is kind of weird working with people
close to my age. Sometimes it is really intimidating to talk to big groups of
people. For the most part, it is super fun though. We do a lot of work at the
institute; we teach most our lessons there. Cheney, Washington is literally the
most podunk little place ever, I'm not even sure why they have a college here.
There is one bowling alley and that is about it. The good news is that a member
owns it, so we get free bowing.
This week I was reading in Alma as the sons of Mosiah are
teaching the Lamanites. It says that as many Laminates that did believe the
words of the sons of Mosiah and did become converted unto the Lord never did fall
away. What a remarkable conversion story! The power of the life of Jesus Christ
can change the hearts of men. We all stand in need of change in our lives.
Because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ we can not only repent of our sins,
but we can be enabled to stretch and reach and grow through the enabling power
of his sacrifice. I hope we remember often the potential that each of us has
because of the grace of our Savior. I hope we can all live life in a way that allows others to
see that we are disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ. I love
you all and have a testimony of our Savior's love for all of us. Remember, with
him you will always be good enough :)
I love all of you. I never have enough time to email all of
you back, but if you email me your mailing address, I usually have more time to write
letters. So HMU if you want a letter!
Also yes, we did climb up on a roof and take pictures...(see
below)
