This week was a really slow week. All of our progressing investigators got
baptized, so now we have no progressing investigators. All the other
investigators we have, don't have an intention on getting baptized anytime soon.
I'm keeping my head up and I have faith that we will be able to find more people
soon. I only have 3 more weeks with my trainer and then I take over the area.
Our Zone Leaders said there is a high chance that I am going to become a
District Leader and/or a trainer. There are 17 new missionaries coming in, so I
guess I will see what happens. Since our area has been the most successful area
in the mission there is a high chance I will be one of the two. We tracked a
lot this week with not much success. We have some potentials but we will see
what happens. That is about it for the work. This Sunday was crazy though. We had 7 confirmations and a
Baby blessing in our fast and testimony meeting. There was a record amount of
people at sacrament meeting with 270 people. I confirmed Sandy and we had
members confirm all of her kids. It was another good experience that I will
never forget. Sacrament meeting was already supposed to be over when the
passing of the sacrament started. So it was the first testimony meeting Ive
ever been too where there wasn't any time for testimonies. I'm am grateful to
have a convert like Sandy's family. I will never forget them and I will stay in
contact with them throughout my whole life. That was basically my week though.
We tracked heaps and I cant believe I have already been out on a mission for 3
months. It feels like I just left home last week. I will be done before I know
it. I miss you all and I hope you all are having good times. I am having a
good time. I am grateful for the success I have had. Its weird to have this
much success. Most people are lucky if they can get 10 baptisms on their whole
mission here in Brisbane, and I have already had 8. We just have to see what
will happen. I miss you all.
Love,
