Hello Everyone!!!
I can't believe it's another pday! I felt like i just emailed all of you yesterday! I'm amazed at how time just keeps getting faster and faster. I'm sorry youve been sick nate! That's awful man. I hope you're feeling better and back tearin it up on the court. Jimmer you're turning 18 next week! wow that's crazy! The big one eight! That one was a weird one for me turning 18. its super cool. Keep working hard on that eagle and push through. So we have a Jun Jun's baptism this Saturday, February 8 which I'm so excited for! I wasnt sure about a month ago if I would see Jun be baptized but here we are and he's getting baptized! It's been an amazing thing to watch and i'm so grateful that I could be even a little bit apart of the process. I'm really starting to see and feel the joy of missionary work. Last Sunday we decided to go get an investigator, J.R., and a less active family and bring them to church. We got there and they didn't come with us. We were really disappointed and when we got to church there was only J. We didn't see anyone else that we'd been hoping and praying would come. But right before sacrament started, in walked 2 lessactives and another one with her kids and they all hadn't come to church for a long time. We ended up having one of the highest attendances weve had since ive been here.I can't tell you the joy and happiness i felt seeing them there. It was an amazing experience. Its amazing that when we put forth our effort to serve the Lord, He may not always bless us in the way we think, but He always blesses us. He always blesses us with more than we give to Him. Another cool experience i had was on monday. We didn't do very well in stats that last week and i was feeling horrible about it. So monday i prayed to Heavenly Father and promised i would do better and i would do whatever He wanted me to do. I then asked Him where we should go that day and then i listened. I felt like we needed to go a place in one of our areas and so we did. There was someone we were supposed to find. I saw ahouse and felt like we should go to it and so we did and the guy said he was going to work so we moved on down that street. Then an old woman came out of on e of the houses and so we talked to her adn she invited us and we taught her and her two grandsons. The Spirit was so strong in the room and they invited us to come back. I know that the those were the poeople that we were supposed to find thta day. I'm so grateful and so humbled for the chance i had to be an instrument in the Lord's hands in finding them. I know that as we desire, pray, ask, listen, and then do we will be able to be insturments int he Lord's hands in finding and saving His children. I know that this is the work of the Lord. i know that by faith all things are possible. all things. I know that the Lord will alwyas answer our prayers and will always guide us as we seek HIs guidance and listen for it. Heavenly Father give us as much guidance and direction and blessings as we let Him give us. He is willing and wants to give us all that He has and we must be willing to seek thosee things. I love Him and know that He loves us. I know this gospel is true. I love it. i love all of you and am grateful for your prayers and support! I love you and pray for you! have a great week! "Everyday should be a wonderful day." -Elder Holland
