This week was ok. We wish we could have taught more but that
was the way it was. This week all of the baptisms fell through =(. Nixie didn't
make it to church because of the funeral of her grandma. We will see if they
will let that slide of not. So we don't know if we have a baptism on the 8th or
not. Johnjohn and Mitch didn't make it to church this week. We don't know why
but we will try to go them this week. Sister Joy is still coming to church. We
found out this week that she doesn't want to marry so it is sad. That is the
only thing that is stopping her from being baptized. We will continue to teach
her and try to help her see the importance of marriage. Jay-r is still
progressing but he didn't come to church again. I was hoping to see his baptism
but I might not now because the soonest he can be baptized I will probably be
transferred. All the other investigators are about the same. We are hoping to
see more progression in them soon.
Let me share some about what I studied this week during my
personal study time. This week I studied a lot about Christ's life here. I
learned that we need to bold when we teach, that is all the members of the
church. He didn't shy away from the trials in his life but he faced them no
matter how hard they were or who presented the trial. We should stand for what
is right and with the Lord we can overcome all. I also learned that all members
can teach with power like Christ did if they follow the commandments and have
faith in Christ. Our enemies won't be able to overcome us if we do the will of
the Father.
Sorry this is short again. I would write more but I don't
know what to write. This was a very slow week for us.
I love you all,
Elder Nielsen
