Friends and family!
This last week was really good! We had so much success!
We found a new family who live by members of the church and they love how the
members have everything together and balanced (faith, family, work, etc.). We
offered to help them with that and they invited us over! We're going again
tomorrow and it'll be great! Prayers for the Shin family would be great! James
is also doing great. He came to a fireside last night and loved it! He's come
to church twice and is ready to be baptized.
There are some obstacles to overcome first, but he should
be prepared and able to take that step in October!
We've been jogging in the mornings so that's a nice
change. My last companion had asthma so exercise wasn't as fun. Jogging is good
though, it's easy to use the time efficiently and effectively. We also have
another set of elders in our district now so we played basketball today. It was
fun! My former companion who's in our district just sprinted right into me and
that was less fun now that I have a bruise on my hip, but other than that life
is good!
This week's challenge is to not ram into people playing
sports. Haha, another challenge is to thank someone every day for something
they do.
It can be the same person, but it can't be the same
thing! This is a great way to continue the humbling we started last week by
showing our gratitude. As we're grateful, we overcome enmity which is the root
of pride, an opposite of humility. Enmity toward others and enmity toward God
vanish as we show our thanksgiving (maybe this will come up again at the end of
November)....
Have a great week!
