Another
great week!
We had MLC on Wednesday,
it was all about becoming consecrated missionaries. Really inspiring (:
We found a few new
investigators this week, all through our own finding efforts which is more rare
in this area. Most of our investigators are found through referrals. This week,
we met Joseph on the street and have started meeting with him. He is from Kenya
and is soo funny and sincere. Alex and Kat are also new--Alex is the cousin of
someone we know, and Kat is the sister of a recent convert. It's just the best
meeting new people. I absolutely love it.
Not a whole lot else
to report. Siddhi is doing so great and is super excited for her baptism! As
are we (: It's going to be pushed back a couple of weeks, but will happen soon.
We have just been working hard and I'm learning tons!
Don't have a whole lot
of time to share some of my learnings this week, but in a nutshell I'm
discovering how important it is to give God our hearts. In the end, why we
do what we do is more important than what we do. We need to do
things with the right motives. Love. Eliminate our reluctance to reach out to
others. Christ was not only our perfect example of what we should do, but why
we should do what we do. As we fully dedicate our lives to God--giving Him our
hearts, and our desires, whether good or bad--He will give us a better life in
return. The only way to win is to lose. Lose our lives for God. When we do so,
we will win and will live a better life. Sorry if this is all jumbled (:
Love you all, have a
good week!
