Well, mission has a lot of surprises. One of my companions will be
leaving this Thrusday. I'll surely miss him 'coz we had a great time
here for almost 2 cycles. Tomorrow will be our last work with him, funny
'coz it's also our zone interview tomorrow and dinner with the Bishop
here.
Anyways, last week was a
so-so day. We had a little bit of problem with our companionship, us
three. And last night, we resolved it after evaluation and did some
companionship inventory. I really love inventory! The Spirit was great
because we were all calm and really listened to each other. Because of
that, I'm really sure that our companionship became stronger, though,
it's just surprising to know one needs to go. But I will always remember
what he said, which is also my favorite scripture verse in the bible.
He said that there's a purpose to everything and it's true. Because of
that inventory experience, all three of us became edified.
Last Sunday, I guess was the most number of
attendance during my stay here. I'm really happy seeing how the Lord
works in His ways. I only have less than 9 months left! Time's so
fast!!!
The thing that I'm really happy about the mission are the
things that I've learned that I can never get from any secular
education. The revelations and inspirations one receives here is really a
higher plane of thought. It's just surreal how the Lord teaches us
everyday and helps us to stretch ourselves everyday.
The District is doing fine and baptisms are coming
shortly. I'm happy for all of them, for their work and for the bond that
we have. And, transfers are coming shortly so it'll be another
interesting event to look forward to.
Well, the Zone Leaders treated us at YellowCab after
my follow-up check-up. Hehe. And, this was my breakfast earlier this
morning while studying.
Anyways, thing are
going great here and I'm so happy I went on a mission despite knowing
the fact that it's coming to an end in less than a year. I'm grateful
for the people that I've met here and for the testimonies borne. Oh, and
the very first baptism that I have is still active and is planning to
get sealed with his wife somewhere next year or so. So, I'm excited for
them! ^^
Also, the baptism that Elder Abad and I had here,
she's so progressing! Excited for her to go to the temple and do
baptisms for the dead.
I'm so happy to have the
Gospel in my life and for the lessons it taught me. Just want to share a
great chapter in the Book of Mormon. It's in Alma 7, the whole chapter
is about Alma and his preaching to the people of Gideon, their brethren
in the faith. And, I love how Alma expected them to be righteous and
prepare themselves for the advent of Christ. It just told me that
Heavenly Father will be even more happier as we strive to receive the
Gospel in our lives and be active in it, not just be active in the
church.
So, that's our week! Next week, it'll just be the me and my trainee. Oh well. That' mission life. Have a great week!
Sincerely,
