Hello!!!!
What is up!?
Man, I know this is becoming
a habit in saying this, but I am stoked! we are really ripping it up out
here!
First off, this week
we blew the scales, in the mission we have what’s is average expectancy of
success, meaning that the mission expects us to have at least 10 news a week, etc.,
well this week we dropped kicked that scale in the ditch and made our own, with
having 11 people in church before the sacrament started (which there was only 9
members there when church started) and having 18 people by the time
church ended, and the thing is a lot of these people have good potential for baptism
so this week the goal is to turn all of these into dates for baptism. now
with that being said, 10 of these 18 people are Hattians, my teaching skills in
creole are good, I am speaking about 65 percent creole right now, still got a little
way to go.
In these past weeks in
the mission we have been talking about goals, this upcoming week we are
planning on setting a whole new ranking of goals for the sector, basically if
we thought we were working hard we are taking it up a little and are going to
work even harder, every night this week we got into just dead beat tired, so
much that I even took a nap on p day, and I never take naps,
So, the house we live
in here is super dope, with what little time I have at night we have been
kicking in a little bible study with pancakes, honestly, we have eaten pancakes
like 4 times this week, turns out I can make a pretty good pancake,
This week we need to
put another baptism date with a couple who their son got baptized about 3 weeks
ago before I got here, they are for sure going to get baptized we just need to
put a date with them!!!
I know that the lord
has blessed us so much here, being able to learn creole, and being able to get
into the lessons that we have had, yesterday as I was sitting in sacraments
meeting thinking about the things that we can do better to have more success
and fulfill our purpose even more I started to think about why we invite people
to church and why we really go, to be honest many times through the week we
live our lives as normal people and then on Sundays put on the shirt and tie
and go talk about things in the church and really just halfway do our stuff and
our callings, I for sure have learned lots about how to be a better disciple of
Christ here on the mission, we really need to put all The effort we have into
the gospel, that includes daily changes in our lives, and being sure we are prepared
when we go to church,
I love you all and
hope that you are doing great! miss yam like crazy!
