Visiting Teaching

Ok so I went and visit taught one of the girls I have who happens to have gone on a mission to Arkansas ( I think) and she showed me pictures. It looked like it was awesome and it really helped me get more excited.

Status update, just need to send my doctor stuff to my bishop and get my picture for my paper work and then I'm all set and ready to send it in to my stake president and on to The general authorities! Woohoo. So yep, that's the new stuff.

Ciao,

First intro to proselyting

Hola Everyone,

Today I had my first chance to see what missionaries actually do on a daily basis. I went to an appointment with the sister missionaries and let me say I am thoroughly amazed that they were able to do so well in the situation we were faced with. The guy lives in a run down apartment complex and didn't have much. He is part of a part member family and rather skeptical of the church to the point of making fun of the sisters. I could tell there was curiosity but from my view he didn't seem interested. The sisters weren't about to give up. I was amazed how bold they were and didn't let him get away with anything. I have been told that being bold is good but personally I don't know if I, myself could have had the guts to do what they did. I suppose I'll have to learn pretty quick but all I can say is the Lord's work must be done and if these sisters can stand up and declare the truthfulness of the gospel to a man who smells like smoke and doesn't have much of anything going for him then certainly I can at least share my testimony with my friends and others I come in contact with. The experience didn't yield as much success the first go round but I believe that given time this man's heart might be softened and he will honestly want to know more.
