¿Haupei?
This week was quite interesting, mainly because throughout the week I was blowing more snot outside of my nose than I have blown out my entire life. Constantly. Everyone else in the world was doing it as well, because we had a very weird climate this week, where it was constantly raining, but not rain, but it was like misty rain that was everywhere. It made everyone go inside, which is good because it means that everyone is able to be available, but it’s bad because nobody is outside to talk to. We were still able to do a lot this week to help our friends go to church, and we had 4 of our friends attend church, which was really cool. We are working a lot with references from members, and it is going swimmingly. It’s crazy that I’m already halfway through my last transfer, the weeks are going by so fast I don’t know what to think. I’m just trying to focus on making the most of the time that I have right now.
Yesterday we had an awesome lesson with our friend Junior. We did service for him last week and invited him to church yesterday and he came, and we visited his house afterwards. We talked about the Book of Mormon, and how it helps us today. He had so many questions about the bible and the primitive church and it made me very grateful for the Book of Mormon and the questions it helps us answer. The 2 last paragraphs of the introduction of the Book of Mormon reads,
We invite all men everywhere to read the Book of Mormon, to ponder in their hearts the message it contains, and then to ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ if the book is true. Those who pursue this course and ask in faith will gain a testimony of its truth and divinity by the power of the Holy Ghost. (See Moroni 10:3–5.)
Those who gain this divine witness from the Holy Spirit will also come to know by the same power that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, that Joseph Smith is His revelator and prophet in these last days, and that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Lord’s kingdom once again established on the earth, preparatory to the Second Coming of the Messiah.
I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God, and that it is convincing evidence of the prophetic calling of Joseph Smith. I hope you all can develop a habit of reading it daily. I know if you do so the Lord will bless you and help you in your lives.
That’s it from me, have a good week!
