This week was such a great week in the mission field. I am loving it. On Tuesday we went to the Federoff's house and we taught them about building upon a Christ foundation. We invited April to be baptized but she wouldn't accept. We then asked Adam about if he wants to change his life. He was able to bare his testimony to April about how he wants to begin to change his life and about how it's so important that his entire family begins to change. It was so powerful and great. We invited him to begin to become a priest and then he could baptize his wife which would be such an awesome experience. The Federoffs are slowly coming around and changing it is going to be great to see them enter the waters of baptism. Another really cool thing happened this week. We went over to Fred's house last night to see how he was doing. One of his High School friends of 35 years was over there she cooked some authentic gumbo. Holly goodness celestial kingdom food right there. Anyway come to find out Fred is beginning to think about joining the church and he quit smoking for 3 days! It is so great to see people begin to change there lives.
Our mission President has given us this packet called our gift to Christ. We are focusing on how we can better live our temple covenants and be better disciples of Christ. September was Sacrifice September, October was Obedience October and November is No No November (Law of Chastity). It's been such a blessing to be able to study these topics and see how they are all related. I invite all of you to begin to look at how you can better live your temple covenants and always look to improve. Think about what the Lords vision is for you. Read you patriarchal blessing and sit and ponder. See what it is the Lord needs you to be so that you can be an instrument in his hands. I have noticed that over these four months it has been hard but it has been such a great blessing to grow closer to my Heavenly Father and learn how to access Jesus Christ Atonement more fully in my life. This life is an ever changing process it's all about progressing and becoming better. Make sure that we are always living up to who we are, sons and daughters of a king, someone who has all power all knowledge and everything that we could imagine. I know that this church is true I know that our Savior Jesus Christ lives and that he loves each and everyone of us. I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. I know that to love is the beginning of all things as long as we can love someone or something everything will be better and we will see great improvement. I love my Savior and I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ my Savior, Amen.
I love you all and hope that you have a great week. Know that you are in my thoughts and that I pray for you. Remember that daily greese is cheep. Read and Pray daily and you will be the person that when you get up in the Morning Satan will say, "O Crap He/She is up." I love my Savior and I love you all stay safe and have a great week. Hugs and Kisses from Virginia.
