LEARNING PATIENCE

Mon, May 21, 2012

This week has gone by so fast I hope all the weeks don't go by this fast. It is great to hear about all of your success. I am exited to hear more. Every week my companion and I are butting heads and he is getting on my nerves. It is all a trial of my faith because I obviously need to learn patience and charity. He teaches me well and he pushes me to speak and be a part of lessons which is good and I am more a part of the lesson now. It's great to feel you are actually teaching people. We have one great progressing investigator, but she is struggling with accepting a date for baptism. She says she wants to have a testimony that it is the right thing for her to do. Which is exactly what we want! We just hope and pray every night that she will get her answer. She attends church every Sunday . She lives with her mother-in-law who is a member and it will be a very smooth transition into our church because she is surround by it everyday. I cannot wait to see her excel in this church. My companion and I are struggling in the new investigator area. Since I have been here it has been harder to contact because of my lesser knowledge of the Spanish language. So along with focusing our efforts on contacts we are going to focus more on working hard with the members for referrals because blind contacts that become converts have a harder time with staying active and we want active members rather than a ton of baptisms. Anyways, I have been praying a ton that I don't snap my companion's neck. I am very glad I have him as a companion because he throws me in the deep end so I will have to swim to survive. Anywho I love you all. Go Wolverines! and GO TIGERS!
