hey everyone!!!! oh how thankful i am for the week i have had! throughout the week my companion and i conducted a few exchanges with some of the elders in our zone and it was truly a wonderful experience! haha i only proselyted with my companion for like 2 days this week which was somehow weird but due to the exchanges, we have just been WORKIN!!! anyways the highlight of the week, *drum roll please* WE HAD A BAPTISM! Brother Meinta has finally entered the waters of baptism and we are so happy for him, he is the perfect example of humility! despite all of the opposition he is facing from family and friends, he still chose to be baptized and follow the example of the savior! he reminds me of amulek who was rejected of his family, his friends, and many of his kindred to follow alma and preach the gospel of Christ.
both my companion and i have been doing all that we can to work with those around us and find more people to teach the restored gospel of christ! oh how thankful i am for the atonement of our savior! if it wasnt for him, we could not receive eternal blessings with our father in heaven. with his atonement we can all overcome sin and death. because of his resurrection we can all overcome the sting of death and rise again just as he did! but overcoming sin on the other hand is if we all follow his gospel! in order to follow his gospel, we need the priesthood authority to perform ordinances such as baptism and receiving the gift of the holy ghost!! he gave his authority to peter and the apostles when he established his church, and because that church was lost it has now been RESTORED!! and we all have the blessings of salvation and eternal life with our father in heaven as we follow the gospel and example of the savior! great blessings come when sharing the gospel and i am so thankful for each of you and encourage you all to press on in the great work of our heavenly father! love you all and wish you the best week
