RE: Weekly Mission President’s Letter
Presidente Bell!
It was great seeing you this morning. I hope
Elder Evans got off well. This week has been tremendous. Much of our focus was
placed on Less-Active members. We visited The Rossmillers who had a pretty
terrible week, but they seemed to feel better after we shared Ether 6:5 and
talked about overcoming the storms of life with them. We also visited Joey, who
fell away from the church shortly after his youth years. We gave him a copy of
The Book of Mormon to him since it had been so long since he's read it. We feel
that he may be gay and asked the ward council to be sensitive as they visit
Joey. We found much potential this week. On the downside, Jared dropped us
because his mother said she did not approve of him meeting with us anymore. We
told him to keep reading The Book of Mormon and call us if things change. I
feel like the area is definitely being prepared for more work. A few people got
dropped and others are coming out of the woodwork. Sheryl and Forrest did not
come to church but we had a quick lesson with them. We are going to teach them
in a member’s home for our next lesson so they can feel the Spirit and be less
distracted than they would be in their own home. I am excited and nervous to
train Elder Johnson. I am so grateful I get to spend 2 days in Bel-Aire with
Elder Holbrook. I am so grateful Elder Evans and I were companions. He helped
me become a better missionary. I am so glad to have met Elder Nash. I will
reflect upon the notes I took from that meeting often. I am so glad to be here.
Thank you for being so marvelous.
Te Amo,
Elder Weaver
