Dear
Family and Friends November 11, 2013
All is well here. My week has been great. We actually got a lot of work
done because we didn’t have a lot of meetings. We had six investigators come to
sacrament yesterday, which was great. Our ward is still kind of struggling with
activity.
Our weather is fairly nice. This past week it has started to get pretty
hot. I don’t know if it is just cause my blood is getting thick because I’m
used to cold at this time or what. But our apartment does not have an AC. It is
a lot like Hawaii nowhere has ac. But it has a lot of windows, so it hasn’t got
to hot there, and luckily we are never there in the middle of the day.
Well I am not eating anything
weird. The only different thing i am eating is pop. The only way I can describe
it is like a little bit harder type of cream of rice. I actually like it, and
it is pretty good.
I am actually using my
ancestor book every few days. In my personal study I read a story almost every
few days. It is really cool to learn more about my ancestors, and I am really
grateful for them. Thank you so much for making that book for me.
The discussions are going well. With
Partson we have ran into a problem because he is not legally married here in
South Africa, he was tribally married in Zimbabwe. So until he has a marriage
certificate he cannot get baptized. This is kind of sad because he was
progressing so fast. We have a few other investigators, but non-that are really
progressing fast.
We have been working with less
actives to try to boost our ward. In lessons I am doing much better. I am
actually leading lessons like doing most the talking instead of just sitting
there. Before I would just bear testimony on things. I have learned to open my
mouth and the Holy Ghost has just filled my mouth with what I need to say. This
is really cool because I am learning to trust the lord. This also referees back
to my patriarchal blessing when it tells me in the second or third paragraph to
trust in the Lord. I am learning this principal.
All is going well here. Tell everyone Hello for me, and that I love
them.
Love
Elder Brown
