This
week was filled with New Years Festivities! The extent of our
celebration was cutting a cake and singing "Happy New Year to You" to
each other to the tune of the happy birthday song haha. It was super
fun! I think the custom for each holiday/celebration is cutting cake
and singing a song of some sort, it's awesome.
Our
New Year had a great start! Finding here is quite the opposite of the
norm here. Because we wear white shirts, ties, and tags, we stand out.
This beckons the curiosity of many who thus approach us and ask us who
we are and why we're here. This creates so many teaching opportunities,
it's awesome. So we picked up a few investigators out of their mere
curiosity this week! The Lord truly prepares people to receive the
gospel.
This week Prashanth and Chandrika were
confirmed members of the Church and received the Holy Ghost! The former
of which I had the privilege of confirming, that was an awesome
experience. I truly could feel the Spirit speaking and working through
me and so could he. Also, an awesome young couple was baptized
yesterday!! Shravani and Purushotham. They were a member referral and
they're super solid. They love Church and the Savior. I had the
privilege of baptizing Purushotham! He is rad, he was beaming after he
came out of the water. I feel that I'm beginning to have a correct
understanding of the joy promised to us in Doctrine and Covenants if we
bring save but one soul into His Kingdom.
Hope
everyone is sticking to their New Years' Resolutions!!! And being
faithful. Do both of those things and you'll just be solid.
Love,
Elder Tuscano
