January 25, 2016 -- Worldwide Missionary Training

Today for fun I overstacked my froyo. It was so overstacked that the person behind the counter asked if she could take a picture and I just might be on her facebook page now. This also helped the sisters since they are trying to teach her and pick her up as an investigator. 

 

Now onto a more hyped note for this week.  Our investigator J... (we call him Jay for short) continues to amaze us every lesson. We've had two lessons with him this week and the Spirit continues to manifest itself strongly through his desire to find a better life. He is one of the most giving people I've ever met and he tries to help everyone around him through his actions. I'm excited to see him progress to his baptism date because we know that will be such a life changing progression for him.

 

We watched the world wide missionary broadcast this week. It was the first one they've done in over a decade and it was pretty sweet. The focus of the whole meeting was the atonement of Jesus Christ and repentance in our investigators lives. Afterward I felt a little drained spiritually but that's always a good feeling because you know that your spiritual knowledge is progressing. 

 

The Church is true, the sky is blue and life is good.

Love, Elder Carlile
