Dear Family and friends,
Man
it has been a interesting week. I'm glad you all had fun in
waterton. it has been a long time since I've been to that place. i
wouldnt mind going back. although my last trek to canada got me very
sick.
So my job as a district leader is basically to inspire
everyone to have the mindset to baptize. i help with there investigators
receive revelation how they can better help people make the commitment
to follow Jesus Christ into the waters of baptism. The biggest thing is
that i train the other elders and sisters to be better missionaries
through companion studies and district meeting. i also recieve all the
numbers from them and help them do better things to make there
numbers(souls) better. And if needed i make sure that people are
obedient and encourage them to follow Christ. i dont like having to take
away things from the elders or sisters. they are pretty obedient
anyways. its all good. there are 6 including me. normal size district.
SOO yesterday i ran into the chandlers. they are going to a
mission in china or japan. anyways they told me they have a son living
in sammamish. I made the connection and i figured it was brother
chandler. soo i met his parents here. And apparently i only missed them
by a day or two or i would have run into them at that ward. cool stuff.
We also had the 4th celebration
on thursday.
we all went in had a spiritual thought and then we had a great time in
the sandy institute. i played basketball all night. Its the best.
although it is very very rough. there are no fouls and you first to
score stays. and you rotate in about 30 other elders. I had a great team
and we won like 25 in a row. it was my old zone leader me and and two
other elders he knew were pretty good. I really think ive gotten better
at basketball. much better at shooting. and that opens up the driving
game.
Wow sounds like there are so many changes going on at home!
how am i going to keep up with it all???haha And for everyones
information they changed a few rules to let the missionaries be a little
more normal. the side bags is world wide, we can wear khaki pants now
and we can wear sweaters and cardigans now. they want our personality to
come out a little more but still look professional.
My spiritual thought mosiah
5:15 tells us that we need to always abound in good works in order to have eternal life. Alma
7:24 says that if we have faith hope and charity we will abound in good works.
