HALO

HALO TODOS

AMAZING GRACE! I'm staying in the Canary Islands for at least one
transfer.  Gotta make the most out of it though, we shall see.

Things here are so up and down and all over the place.  One week they
are reading with a head lamp in their bead every night in the Book of
Mormon and the next week their family comes into town and you can't
meet with them for two weeks. This week was kinda one of those weeks
where everyone has stuff going on and your dead every day because
you've walked to a ton to
less actives houses and contacting everyone you met every day.  But there are always good experiences mixed in
with the hard days. Often times we will walk around all day with every
lesson we have planned fail us, but the last lesson of the day is just
golden.  It's all just part of the mission life.  But the harder the
work, the happier we are each and every day.

I don't know why but this has happened to me multiple times lately.
This past Sunday, the meeting started, and zero of our investigators
were there.  I was so bummed and my heart sinks every time they don't
come to church.  I was especially sorrowful this week as I sat there
with just my companion.  Yet, about 10 minutes after the meeting
started, in walked one of our investigators.  This is something that
maybe to the average day situation isn't all that great, but when you
are here doing the Lord's work and inviting people to come closer unto
him, any little effort the investigators make, and every little
commitment they keep makes you so incredibly happy.  It gave me the
animo I needed to carry me into this week after a rather difficult
week before.

I Love my mission, I love the Lord, and I love you all
