"So this week has been crazy in an awesome way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This week we just did a ton of missionary work. I guess
that's what we are suppose to be doing, but I am on fire. We have been
teaching like crazy and we have two people on date for Baptism! Charlie will be baptized
this Saturday! He is a
boss! He is like one of my best friends now. We went and played basketball
with him and he played college ball, and he also had a full ride
baseball scholarship to UGA, and I blocked him like 4 times. He was
like "Man I did not expect you to have hops!" It was super funny!
Then the other lady named Louise will be baptized on March 3rd! She has read everything, and when I say everything I mean everything! She read the entire Gospel Principles manual in 2 days! She missed
church this week and was worried she wouldn't be able to be baptized! It
is awesome her commitment!
Today
already we taught two lessons on our Personal Day. Our ward mission leader was all
impressed he was like "You don't find to many Elders who will take time
out of their Personal Day." It has been awesome and I'm loving it.
This week I will share my favorite Book of Mormon hero that I have never really
shared but in Alma 44: 12-14, we read about The Solider of Moroni. He is a beast and
not because he scalps a dude, but think about it, a man who comes in
saves the life of one of the most popular Book of Mormon heroes, stands
up to the enemy, announces his stand and beliefs and then slips away and
we never know his name! If i could be any kind of missionary that is who I would be like. I want to be able to be remembered for what I did, but never
the name. I may or may not have shared that before but that is my
thought for the week!
Elder Miguel out!"
Reading this and hearing that passion that drives the missionaries was really uplifting to read this Sunday! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteMoroni is also my favorite. He was Mormon's favorite, too. :) It sounds like your son is on fire. That is the BEST way to live life. I'm happy that he is finding success and joy in his service.
