Im doing great! Im getting to know my area a little better we can work on more roads now and we wont get lost. Im working good with my companion, we are teaching well together now we know our strenghts and we teach with a lot more power now!
One thing i learned this week from my mission president is that it is hard to share the gospel when you dont have a name tag on. As missionaries we are always asking the members to invite their friends to come to church, we are always asking the members to invite their friends to family night. But President Cordner taught us that it is hard to do this things when your not a missionary and sometimes as missionaries we forget that it is hard. But also he taught that the more missionary practice and help the members share their testimonies they will. It is hard the first time to invite your friend to church. But it is important for the members to do this because it has so much for power. How can we do this?
First Fear of inviting somome to church or sharing your testimony does not come from God, it comes from Satan. Becaue Satan, he doesnt want you to share the gospel becasue he knows it will bless the lives of the people you talk with. But it is scary to do this, one thing i would say it to practice, share your testimony to your family first, your brothers, your sisters, then try with a friend. knowing that this is what God wants you to be doing and that the spirit will guid your words into the hearts of your friends. I know that as you do this the spirit will be with you and you will help the lives of others.
I challenge you to invite one person to come to church this week! first practice then Invite a friend. If you are reading this and are not a member, i invite you to go to church this week. Talk with somome who lives their and go to church with them!
I hope you all have a great week!
