Hey mom/family... Great week this
week! We love teaching out here but, it's just finding the new
investigators is kinda hard cause they really hate the Mormons. We got
some new golden investigators and they are doing great! We have a
baptism this week on my birthday. Aaron our investigator that had the
date for my birthday is still getting baptized. He is golden! He is
the best example to everyone around him! Oh, it's going to be a great
day that day! What better present on my birthday then another one of
God's children entering the water of baptism! It snowed all day on May
2nd, it sucked!... like I said I"m in bipolar misery, haha, but its
starting to warm up. I am passing off my last two preach my gospel
lessons this month so hopefully I can be senior comp and drive next
transfer, maybe even train!!!!!
Sounds
like all ya'll had too much fun at Sonnett's graduation listening to
the boring speakers except for that one. You know, he is right.
Everyone has a purpose! Each missionary will have that one
investigator that will change that his/her life and the one that they
are teaching will have their life changed forever as well. That person
for me is my recent convert Mavis. She had a long hard road to get
where she is today and I had the great opportunity to teach her. She
reminded me why I was here, to find those people that I would be able
to connect with better and she was one of those. I told her my
background and she was touched by it for some reason. I don't know what
I said but, she immediately started crying. She opened my
hardened, calloused over heart to a whole new world. I love her and I
know she will be a great member of the church as I leave this area.
Dad, go shoot me a turkey in the face! I have seen a LOT of turkeys HUGE toms beards touching the ground.
Wow,
Drew and Alex are engaged?! That was surprising, NOT, haha, and great
to hear about Hunter! Tell him to study preach my gospel hard
and memorize the lessons in the back of each lesson!
Love you all and know that though hard work anything is possible!
Love,
Elder Davies
