| This is our happy st patties day celebration:) haha |
This week has been great! I was able to go interview 2 more people in our distict that got baptized this weekend. I just love doin interviews and its so cool while you do them to be listenin to the responses that they give you and also for the spirit to confirm that they are ready. In every interview i have, its such a neat experience and i am able to feel the spirit so strongly and in a different way then i usally feel it to know they are ready for baptism. I love it!:) We also had zone trainin this week. Probably the best zone trainin ive had on my mission! They trained on a meetin that 1/3 of the mission got to go to. Brothers Donaldson and Littlefield from the MTC came and trained on a new way to teach and help with members and to hasten the work even farther then its goin right now! It was so great! The one thing that ill have time to explain is about the new teachin method. We are to teach the whole restoration lesson in 7 mintues! What you do is you take out the pamplet that we pass out and we use the pictures and ask them to describe what they see and they basically teach themselves! Its so dang fun to do and very effective. As we do this we are becomin more bold! Boldness isnt yellin and screamin and gettin mad, its explainin clearly and as nephi says "According to the plainess in the which I know that no man can err" Bein bold is talkin so plainly that no one can err! As we think about what we are gonna say to people and just say short sweet simple sentences people cant err, they cant make excuses, and this way you start to find those that are serious about the gospel, or those that arent gonna change. Its so great!
We have been tryin to find new investigators. As we go to the stores and just talk with people and breifly explain about the gospel then set up apointments to come teach them we have been successful so far. We have a few we wanna see this week. I just love sharin this and it makes me so happy:) Ive been tryin to get my comp to talk more. He literally wont say anythin which is kinda the new missionary dealio haha but ive been tryin to help him so once he is done trainin and has another comp they both can talk! Ha but life is great! Other than that we have been tryin to see less actives, and recent converts. We are startin to do BOM studies with a RC Camron, he is 12 and we are gonna read the BOM and have him read some on his one until he reads it all the way through. Right now with our branch we are tryin to create a base where we then can build and make it stronger. We are tryin to help the active members be strong and help in missionary work which is startin to happen a little at a time right now!
The message I would leave with yall today is one that you can truley find the most happiness in. That is of openin your mouth and just sharin the joy, love, peace and happiness that the gospel bring you with others. As we do that with boldness, clear and simple, we will find the elect quicker. We will be able to see success and will have more happiness than anything else can bring us!:) I love yall, and hope yall have a great week:)
Love Elder Hall
