Hey fam,
another busy week, and loving life. Elder Fossou, is such an
awesome missionary, and the first week with him has been great. Teaching in a
three-some is interesting, but so far it is okay. We had MLC this week and
everyone in my MTC group bore their "dying testimonies.." I still
feel like i just got here!
MLC was great, we talked all about the Book of Mormon and
how it is central to our testimony of the Savior and how it needs to be at the
center of our tools for teaching. I underestimate how incredible the Book of
Mormon truly is. Everything about it is a miracle. How it was written,
preserved, brought forth, and now how it is flooding the Earth with the most
pure and simple doctrine of Christ. We are so lucky to be able to read it's
pages and feel the Spirit. I know it is the word of God.
Sunday was a pretty special day. We conferred the priesthood
on both of our recent converts who were baptized last week. They are both so
prepared to hold the power and authority of God. One of them has been rejected
by all of his family and friends, because of his choice to become a Christian,
but he truly understands what his purpose is here. He always has the biggest
smile on his face, never complains, and simply wants to share the gospel and
serve God. A member gave him a new set of scriptures and a scripture bag on
Sunday and his face lit up and he told us that now, he is a missionary. He is
willing to give up everything to know the truth, and to share it.
I couldnt imagine a better place to serve, or a better place
to finish my mission. I love it here. My testimony has grown so much in this
area. I know this gospel is true. Jesus Christ lives. Have a great week!!
Elder Eldredge
