(Note from mom...we had these on our trip to Loreto, Mexico...new favourite for the whole family it appears!)
This week we were able to baptise N! She was hyped and even though very few went to the baptism it was very spiritual. The bad news though is that they are going to move out of the area this week! Hoping the new ward can visit them and help them be active members. The jeans at a baptism thing is very normal here, we are just happy to see them :)
M is also going to get baptized this week! She went to both sessions of stake conference this weekend, goes to institue, had an interview with the bishop, met the stake president, met the mission president, went to the relief society activity, and the autosuficience classes. More active than the bishop I think!
I've been pretty tired lately, but I am very glad I have a companion who is very excited and energetic in every moment. He doesn't understand a lot of parts of the mission yet, but his heart is in the right place, and that's not something you can teach. The rest will come with time.
The bishop took us out for a pizza after stake conference to congratulate us for the baptisms we have had. I felt like I was going out with Brother Fibke and the boys like we always did back home after a conference, loved it. I have some really good friends in this ward. One couple who were baptized a year ago just got sealed in the temple and feed us every week at least once. They spoke in stake conference, and the brother is president of young mens and goes with us to lessons every week. That's the dream for our converts!
Lovin my mission, so glad I took the choice to serve. It's like President Steele (our Stake President in NW Calgary) said about how he accepted to be a stake president when he was baptised. I accepted to serve a mission with all my heart, might, mind, and strength when I was baptised.
Love the Lord and the miracles he gives us.
Love
Elder Lethaby
Questions Answered:
Have you sorted out the issue with your landlord thinking you’re to clean the other houses?
Yup! We are only in the one house now, everything outside isn't our problem, and everything inside is her problem if it isn't working. All good
Are you still “rent free”?
Do you ever teach Family History to the new people?
Will you get a chance to go to the temple again?
No, we pay rent now and have just a normal contract.
No, don't even know how anymore really
Depends on the new president... right now President Nelson take everyone to the temple on the way to the airport but I don't know what the new president will do.
