Thanks mom for praying for those guys. We could use all the help that we can get, because i am a terrible teacher as it is. We just taught a lesson with them yesterday, which was pretty good. I was not pleased with how i did, but whatever. It's just that I'm not totally sure why or how to help them have more of a desire to go to church. That's the goal right now, if we could just get them to church, it would change everything. So, we will do our best and not let them fall.
Life here has been pretty good, I've now been out for 2 transfers at the end of this week. That's such a long/short time! It seems like a long time being here, but then its been so short because i feel that i haven't learned as much as i need to. But that's just how i am, i just want to know everything right now. i don't like having to go through the hard learning process, but it has to happen. And i know that the lord is there to help me, and he will if i do all that i can and stop complaining.
Even so, this area is picking itself up finally! We have started working with members a bunch more, and will continue to do that. We have come to realize that this missionary work is not ours, it is the wards. They are the ones that hold the keys and responsibility to find the people that are ready for the gospel. the Bishop and other leaders, hold the keys to finding people, we don't. So it has been our effort to work through those keys that they hold. That's why we haven't been teaching as much as we have needed to. So now its really cool to see how things are flowing together. And its right when im probably going to leave this area! O well, I wont be too bitter. haha, just kidding. I think that it is awesome that things are starting to work!
Love ya guys!!!
