Hey y'all! (Sorry, can't help it, I'm in Preston)
Hope everything is going well back home! Things have been
going well out here in Preston. It's been a while since I wrote last, so I'll
try and give a good summary of what's been going on.
So Preston is quite the place. A land of cowboy boots, cows,
farms and people that were able to star in Napoleon Dynamite. It's been a good
experience so far, it feels a lot like home. For such a small town there is a
surprising amount of people to teach. We have had a baptism every weekend of
the transfer except for this last weekend and
we have another one coming up this week. Those who have been baptized so
far are Skyler, Miguel, Seth, and Stetson. They are awesome and we are super
excited that they decided to take such an important step! This week, Deborah
Olson is getting baptized! She is out of our focus Ward and has been taught by
the Ward missionaries in Mink Creek, but today we are going to go have a lesson
with her and prep her for her baptismal interview. It's super cool to see wards
find and teach their own investigators! So that means y'all can do the same!
Well, we have to head off to the lesson now, so I'll have to
cut this short. I just want you all to know that I have a testimony of our Lord
and Savior Jesus Christ. We have been studying "The Living Christ" a
lot lately and it has deepened my understanding of Christ so much. I am so
grateful that I have the opportunity to be a messenger for Him. So I invite all
of you to open your mouths along with all the missionaries serving in the world
and let your friends and family know "that Jesus is Living Christ, the
Immortal Son if God.... He is the light, the life, and the hope of the world.
His way is the path that leads to happiness in this life and eternal life in
the world to come." I promise that as you hear testimony of him, you will
see your words work miracles in the lives of others, as they feel the spirit
testify to them that what you say is true.
I love you all, thank you for the support that you give me.
I wish you all the best this week and I hope you are successful in all of your
righteous endeavors.
