Week 28

Hey family! This week was super crazy! We are finally done with all of the holidays! Yay. So the emailing will go back to Monday soon. However, next week will be on Tuesday. We have zone conference on Monday!

Wednesday: We had a really fun lesson with Lena. We taught her all about God. For a little girl, she had some intense questions.

Thursday: Today we had some awesome lessons! We taught Claron all about the Atonement. What it is, how it works, why we need it, how it can help us, who it covers, when we can use it, where it works. It was so good. It was definitely a very strong experience.

Friday: Tons of awesome stuff happened today! We rode all around in the pouring rain and got totally mudded out bad! It was awesome! Then later in the day this guy who owns a lemonade factory gave us two big jugs of it for free! It was really cool to see, even though he is Hindu, that people look out for us.

Saturday (mom’s birthday!): Happy birthday! I love you so much mom! Today we met an awesome lady named Abigail! We can’t wait to go see her again. She seems really awesome! We had all of our lessons fall through today, but if that didn’t happen, we wouldn’t have met Abigail.

Sunday: Today we stayed up all night waiting for the new year! Happy 2017 everyone! We had nobody at church…it made me sad. Elder Kyler and I decided the reason for that is this: People don’t read the Book of Mormon. If you don’t, start! If you do, keep doing it!

Monday: EVERYTHING was closed. It sometimes is like that! lol. We cleaned the apartment nice though! We also had a really fun talk with Jonah, our landlord. We talked about everything from drones to rally racing. It was cool. We turned it into a Gospel discussion and bore testimony and left. Hopefully it helped build his faith back. He hasn’t come to church in a long time.

Tuesday: 
“As missionaries we all have the same calling. However, we all have something different to do!” -Elder Cooper

“What e’re thou art, act well thy part.” -David O. McKay. Two awesome quotes for today. Elder Gibbson and I went on exchanges. We stayed up really late. It was bad! Lol

This week was really interesting. I know that my redeemer lives! He gave us the Book of Mormonto bless us So we can do the things we need to do in this life to prepare to meet Him. I absolutely know that the BOM is true, is sure, is steadfast, it immovable. No other book in religious history has ever been picked apart as much. Yet, it stll stands. How? Because it was truly translated by the power of God! I know it’s true. “Lift up your heart and rejoice, for the hour of your mission is come” D&C 31:3

And your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to find out for yourself if the BOM is true! Do it!

I love you all so much!


-Elder Andrus
