Muchísimas gracias por las cartas que me enviaron. Pero enserio, me
ayudaron bastante para enfocarme más en las cosas importantes.
I can hardly believe that 1. Benny is a college guy!!! He's soo
cool. He's living in the place that I lived for 2 years. It is an
awesome place to live. But seriously. The location is bomb. I am so
happy for that guy. I think that he will rock it up. 2.
Carter is already 1?! Wasn't he just born!? Dad,, stay busy digging
those spuds. I have like a hundred and six things that I can now do with
potatoes. I can't wait to teach ya'll some of my favorite foods. This
place literally is potato land.
Thanks to Grandpa Ogborn for sending me some really awesome cards. I just ate them up. They're a great support system.
Marco is still progressing, but didn't pass his interview again.
He's still moving forward. We got tired of just teaching him, so we
invited him to teach with us the other day. It was one of the most
powerful lessons that I have ever seen. He bore his
testimony about how prayers are answered and that people can change when
they come to know God. The young woman that we visited committed to be
baptized in that moment. It was incredible. I have learned a ton from
this guy. He will get baptized soon, his testimony
is so strong and has changed so much.
We have been teaching a less active family in our area. They have
been inactive for 23 years and are now coming to church faithfully. 3
weeks in a row. Wow. They have all the excitment in the world to relearn
the things of the Gospel. It really was a miaracle.
We found them when we were updating the ward list and we invited them to
church and they CAME. Then they kept coming. I just LOVE seeing less
active members in the church. It really gives me a thrill unlike that of
anything else. It is just like the parable
of the good shepard who goes out to find the one who is lost. When he
finds it he throws it up on his shoulders and REJOICES. I am rejoicing
now because of the faith of less active members. I have been fortified
by their faith and their endurance after many
trials.
I love the Gospel and I love being a missionary.
Love,
Hermana Christensen
