October 13, 2014

Hey!

So mostly this week was just super tiring haha. We walked a lot and we played soccer/futboll on Saturday with some investigators, which was great! but also tiring cause I haven't run in sooo long! haha. But all in all it was a good week!

We had some awesome lessons with some of our investigators and they are really starting to progress! They are so awesome, we have 5 people on a date to be baptized. We might have to move some of them, but I think that they can be ready by then! They really like the things that we have come here to teach and are trying to find out for themselves if they are true. Which really is one of the beautiful things about our doctrine, you don't need to take anyones word for it on anything. The Book of Mormon says it a lot better than I can Moroni 10:5 "Dhe nepërmjet fuqisë së frymës së shenjtë, ju mund të dini të vërtetën e të gjitha gjërave/Through the power of the Holy Ghost, you can know the truth of all things" It's also promised to us in 3 Nephi 18:20, whatever we ask the Father in the name of His Son Jesus Christ in faith, as long as it be righteous, we will receive.

I was also reading in Jacob for Personal study and it was the words of a prophet of old who Jacob was quoting. These Latter Days are the last days that the Lord will work in His vineyard, and He has called servants like Prophets and missionaries to help him gather the fruits. What an awesome thing to have read as a missionary, and when I read it I thought of my wonderful two older siblings who are such awesome examples for me and have been for my whole life! Even though we've fought a lot haha.

One hilarious thing that happened this week hahah So for sacrament we were supposed to watch conference, Elder Baker had it downloaded on a hard drive, but the TV wouldn't read it. So we had to run home and get the stuff for Sacrament and do a "regular" meeting haha. We also didn't have the speakers to play the hymns, so it was pretty much just the missionaries singing acapella. So super awkward sacrament meeting. But the funny part was the closing hymn haha. So we were singing Shpirti i Perendise, Spirit if of God. And we were only in the second verse, but singing the chorus, which ends 'Amen and Amen' but our wonderful member, Ajdin, very loudy after singing the second amen, just said it. So it was all of us singing 'Amen dhe Amen' and then Ajdin "AMEN" just really loudly. hahaha we couldn't help but burst out laughing, everyone there haha. All 14 of us haha.

I guess that's it for the week! I hope you all have an awesome week and that you are able to serve your fellow man ;) even though sometimes it's hard!
