Moroni 2:7 - June 20, 2016

2 And now I, Mormon, speak unto you, my beloved brethren; and it is by the grace of God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, and his holy will, because of the gift of his calling unto me, that I am permitted to speak unto you at this time.

Everyone,

We had lots of fun this week. We had a goal of getting a record of 14 lessons in one week. The previous goal was 12, and Elder Shuppy and I set that back in March. Sunday we had lots of miracles, and we were able to make it. This week we gave out several copies or The Book of Mormon while finding. Things are in the up here. The only thing that is down is the tempature. Tomorrow is the longest day of the year, so the week before should be getting warmer. Well it is actually pretty cold. We have wind chill and cloud covers, so we had to break out our jackets once again.

We taught Jesper twice this week, and he came to church. He is starting to pray every day which is great. He has moved out of his friends house into a members apartment. It is great that they are roommates because the member can help him out with understanding the gospel. It is also great because he is living the law of chastity. Big improvements there.

Lone came to church as well, and is doing great. She was grateful for the blessing that we gave her two weeks ago, and she says that everything is happier in her life. Our first lesson with her was wonderful, and she has a strong desire to bring her life in line with the gospel.

After several weeks we finally got a lesson with Ketty. We kept is simple and taught a few of the basic commandments. The Blackhams have been teaching her, so we are finishing it up before her baptism next month. It was a wonderful experience. We came to following the profet, and she bore her testimony of profets, and that Joseph Smith was called of God. That was a special thing to experience. If you remember The Best Two Years one of the Elders asked, "What do we do now?" The other one answers, "I don't know I have never made it this far:" Elder Olson and I had the same conversation afterwards. 

District meeting was wonderful this week. Traveling was great with no problems. Several members of our district had been in København for their 30 day meeting. They came back on fire, and really helped teach and clarify a few points for us. Mostly on finding and teaching effectively.

Hav en god uge.
