our "funny face" photo haha
This
week was good, we did a lot of planning, scheduling, and arranging for
our coming visit with Elder Cook. We received some crazy news this week
that SIXTEEN NEW MISSIONARIES are coming to our mission!!!! That is
unheard of!! And amazing. That will be a great boost to the hastening
of the Lord's work here in south India. One reason this whole planning
thing is crazy is because transfers are at the same time as Elder Cook's
visit haha. So our logistical skills are at their breaking point.
Kidding, but sort of haha.
One cool thing that
happened: so the Visakhapatnam zone leaders came on exchange with me
this past week and we visited one of our returning members homes, his
name is Moses and we've grown pretty close over the course of my time
here in Whitefield. Anyway, we walked into his house and sat down and
he said, "Hey I told my friends about you guys, do you 5 or 10 minutes?
He wants to meet with you. Can you meet with him?" YES MOSES! Yes we
can, that's what we do haha. So we met with his friend, Suresh, and
had a great experience. He is from Hindu background so we talked to him
about the nature of God and he was so touched. We also taught him how
to pray so he said the closing prayer! He offered one of the most
amazing prayers I've heard, we were all so impressed. What great,
simple faith. I think one of the most beautiful truths that India has
taught me is that it's okay to have simple faith. The gospel has taught
me that it's not just okay to have simple faith, but rather it is
essential to spiritual progress.
That's really
it for this week haha. I will send some photos. I hope everyone has a
great Mother's Day! I feel blessed beyond measure for my mother and it
has been an absolute privilege to serve her people.
Keep the faith, have a great week!
