Wuzzzzup Family and Friends!!!!!
I hope you guys all had an awesome week :)
My week was rather crazy!! haha it was transfers this week and so I had to say goodbye to Elder Hess. It was kind of weird and hard to do actually. He and I were best buddies and I just felt like I would serve all two years with him. He was an awesome missionary though and my new comp is too!
Saying goodbye to Elder Hess |
My new comp, Elder Lopez, is awesome and we had a good week this week teaching. But my spiritual story for this week actually comes from before transfers when Elder Hess was saying goodbye as we taught his last lesson to our investigator Sherrie. We had an awesome time discussing faith and reading from the Book of Mormon with her and she is just so awesome. When it was getting time for us to go the mood of everything changed and I don't think I had ever felt the spirit so strong and Sherrie with tears rolling down her cheeks told Elder Hess thank you for not giving up on her. Sherrie has investigated the church for a couple of years now and she is just awesome. She looked at Elder Hess and said that when she gets baptized she wants him to know that he was a part of her conversion. Sometimes it can be frustrating as a missionary when you don't get to see a ton of results for yourself personally with baptisms. I get selfish and think this too sometimes. However, it isn't about us as the missionaries and it just showed me that the Lord has His time for everybody and is preparing everybody in their own way and I just love my mission and that was so cool. I hope to progress Sherrie as far as I can while I am here :)
