Behold, I say unto you, that I am super good down here in the mission.  Haha i am found myself starting to talk like the book of Mormon because I am like a book worm right now.  I am actually learned a lot right now.  I am currently in 2 n. 12 and just getting into the Isaiah/Nephi.  Man, if you think it is hard in English... wow, I don’t understand things.... ahah but it is super great.  I am learning a lot, and also gain a big trust in God and what he has his servers do.  I am understanding my purpose as a missionary and how important my role is right now.  I am super excited!!!

So this week we have been consecrating on Lucas, kind of like always... haha but we brought up tithing and that is always a hard topic to bring up.  But he accepted well and promised to keep the law of tithing and fasting when he becomes a member of the church of Jesus Christ.  I am super impressed with the testimony he already has.  I am super grateful for the prayers and for the love you guys send through your prayers.  Please keep praying.

This week in my ministry was a little bit normal.  We followed passing out the cards found some good new people.  We have a lot of return dates, but we haven’t really been teaching a lot.  It is a little hard.  The feet are getting tired, yawl know what I mean.  But still we are following the rules and being obedient, I know God has someone out there that he is just preparing and we just need to find him.  Comes with constant pray and fasting.

We had a tsunami in my area this week, well yesterday.  WE ended up with 4 new investigators, and one of them accepted a baptism date.  We are super excited.  We will keep up with them this week and that will be the focus for the week that comes.

This week I want to talk about how important our testimonies are to the world.  Just being a member of the church is not good enough.  We grow testimonies to share them.  It is like growing a huge apple tree and not partaking of the wonderful tasty fruit.  Share and partake of the sprit that it gives.  Bruce R. Mckonkie said, there are two important truths that we need as members of the church.  If we have those things we will prosper.  Those things are a Testimony of Joseph Smith, and of course that Jesus is the Christ.   With this reading the book of Mormon, I encourage you guys to continue praying for a strengthening of your testimonies.   So you all can stand as a witness that Jesus Christ Restored His church Through Joseph Smith. 

I love all you guys with all my heart.  I love the mission. 

See you all next week.
