One Quarter

   Hey! What's happening? I hope your life has been as epic as mine!
Oh, wait.... You aren't on a mission right now, so obviously your life
right now is not as cool as mine is! Yes, I will take unrighteousness
pride in that. Let me tell you why......

   First off, none of you are calling people to repentance. It is
pretty great! You knock on their door and as soon as they open the
door, "Repent! Repent, ye wicked abominations! For The Lord our God
Hates sin!" (Welcome to the big leagues, Esquire). I can't think of
any thee time in your life where you could do that and get away with
it. "Oh, they are just preachers." They all think. How bout the next
door you knock, call them to repentance and watch how they react.
Obviously, this is an exaduration, but we do call people to repentance
in a less harsh manner. Even at the door.

   Secondly, we don't have to worry about the material things of this
world. We have two years to devote ourselves to God and serving him!
And guess what, I have been doing this for 6 months now! Time just
flies by, doesn't it?

     There have been many lessons learned in these months, such as,
with The Lord, all things are possible, Faith is a source of Power,
and prayer is real! I want to touch on the last one. Well, of course
prayer is real, people do it every day. It is the answering part that
is real! For the longest time, our area had yet to find a new
investigator. Elder Rowley and I had our faith put to the test. We had
been working hard; could have worked harder, but we do our best. We
have been finding our backsides off and we hadn't had any luck. On
Tuesday, I said in my morning prayers that we had faith to find
someone who is prepared and is willing to listen to us. That day, we
had dinner with a member family and hey said that they would invite
their friend to come eat over as well. Sadly, I was on an exchange
with the district leader, but Elder Rowley said that when they went to
dinner, they taught the friend that was invited and he accepted to
receive the missionary discussions! Later that week, we went back to
the lady who I said we were there to bring her unto Christ. She said
she would start investigating! They is Two new investigators this last
week! Prayers are answered, I know it!

     Well, I love and miss you all! Can't wait to hear back from you!
