Another week in the life of this missionary. (How's that for creative?)
It has been a really good week! Sister C. and I are still getting adjusted to one another and trying to get used to each other's teaching style. It is diffrent, but it is good.
At our transfer meeting President C. talked to us about trials and how once (as a lawyer) he had to learn how steel was made. He walked us through the process, and at the end, the last furnace the liquid steel goes through is the hottest, and burns off the leftover imperfections. When he asked how hot it has to be for it to work the person taking him through responded: "As hot as I can make it."
President then went on to tell us how the steel would not be nearly as strong if it didnt go through that process, and it is one that needs to happen for the steel to reach its true potential. The hotter the furnace the purer the steel.
Do you remember: "Anyone can run a mile!"?
Well now it has become: "The hotter the furnace the purer the steel."
Darn inspiration! Why does it have to be so right and so annoying all at the same time?! :)
We have a young man who is leaving tomorrow morning for the MTC. His farewell was yesterday, and he did such a nice job! I came to North Vernon right after he had gotten his call, and we have had him come for a few lessons. It has been so fun to watch him learn and grow! He is going to tear it up in Guam!
Trisha was baptized on Thursday!!!! It was so special to watch her enter into that covenant and know that SHE KNOWS! what she is doing and she will continue doing it the rest of her life!
Our other person who was going to be baptized this Saturday will have to be pushed to a later date. But that is okay, because it WILL happen, it just needs to be in the Lord's time.
Well I love you all! Hope all is well, and know that you are all in my prayers!
