Week 12: MISSION LIFE

Well It's that time again!!
 
Here we are, on a Monday. Crazy, isn't it? This week... a lot happened and a lot didn't happen. I guess all there is to say is.. that's life!!! Also, I don't have much time this week, so.. sorry scatterbrainness..
 
This week has been full of ups and downs. We have been working with a recent convert a lot from Cuba, called Sandra. This week, we were over at her house, when her 14 year old son was there! After we taught her other son, Chingy, we asked Wayne if he'd like to learn more. Surprisingly, he said yes! We were stoked. But teenagers are hard to read.. so we didn't know how much to expect out of him. The next time we came to teach him, we got from his family that he didn't really seem too interested, but after talking to him, he told us that he read from the Book of Mormon!! What? Yeah he's pretty cool. We invited him to church, but his dad isn't very religious, so we were unsure if he was going to show up. We reminded him through text, but.. no answer.. but.. Lo and behold the next morning he showed up on Sandra's doorstep early and ready for church!!! MIRACLES. Pretty much, we were very excited.
 
Yeah. Well...I can't really think of too much else that happened this week... and we are leaving for Nottingham in about 4 minutes.. but please know everyone.. that this gospel is the truth. Jesus Christ is our saviour and loves us. He knows us and our situation perfectly. If you have no one else to turn to, turn to Him. His words are in the scriptures, so study them. God's words are known through the prophets, so listen to them. We are so blessed to live in a time when we have the gospel so accessible to us. Take advantage of it!! And, share it. Maybe even use words sometimes. But people who know you look up to the examples we share. Every person is a Child of God, and should always be treated as such.
 
Yeah. The gospel is THE BOMB.
 
 
Love, Sister Slack
