Hey yall!
That's such an awesome story! Regardless of
what happens with that family I know that they'll feel the Spirit from
hearing the choir in person. It's going to be an awesome experience for
yall and a great opportunity to build a friendship. Keep up the good
work! I'm glad Solomon and Amanda have been continuing to be such
powerful influences in spreading the gospel message. Teaching with
members in a members home is the best way to help people. I definitely
have a strong testimony of member work.
Speaking of member work there have been some great things going on
here in Marion. The work is really picking up so well. Audrey (i spelled
her name wrong in previous messages) is awesome! She's doing so well.
She's preparing now for a baptism on the 27th with her mom. I'm so
excited for them. They both were able to make it to church and loved
it. Her mom said she felt so welcomed and loved there. Her mom who goes
by K, told us that her husband (who we haven't even met yet) read the
Restoration pamphlet and is reading the Book of Mormon more so than she
even. She said he takes it to work with him! I'm excited for the
appointment we have with them tomorrow! It's going to be great. As we
talked with Audrey last night we also spoke to her sister Myeshia and
one of Audrey's friends, Erika. They are both really excited about the
gospel too and Myeshia is definitely coming to stake conference. She was
sad that she had to miss church this Sunday but her excitement about
the gospel is skyhigh right now. This is such a great family! They are
all really intent to learn more and have this joy more abundant in their
lives. This truth is so real and people really will feel it. Myeshia
and Erika are shooting for baptisms in early May. God is truly blessing
us at this time.
As we've been teaching Audrey we've been having this wonderful
member Jessica there with us all the time. It's been such a blessing
because Jessica and Audrey are both great friends now and Jessica's
actually going to be moving in with Audrey soon. It's really a huge
blessing for Jessica too because she wasn't quite sure where she was
going to move after some problems at her former residence. We've been
helping Jessica grow stronger in the gospel and teaching with her brings
her so much happiness she's said. I'm so excited about the work. I love
this work so much. There are so many great people here just ready to be
baptized. They are going to be such solid members too which I'm greatly
excited about. It makes me sad seeing people --who once had the light
enough in their lives to be baptized-- fall away. We can never give up
on them though. Everyone needs to go through the temple. It's really
difficult falling away after an amazing experience like going through
the temple.
I'm glad things are going well back home especially with the
missionary work. Things are clearly going so well right now and I'm just
loving it.
As a side note I have just a couple
requests, you know that cd yall have with what sounds like pioneer music
with like strings and stuff? On it there's like popcorn popping on the
apricot tree but it sounds like pioneery if that makes sense. If you can
make me a copy of that cd that'd be awesome. I'm getting a little bored
with the music I've got now so if you can send just like a couple
copies of cds with church music on it that'd be great. I don't need any
more MoTab, i've got plenty of that. But yeah we can listen to really
any kind of gospel music like Jericho Road and Efy cds and cool
renditions of hymns. So if yall have anything cool like that I'd love
it. Thanks :D
-Love,
Elder Nair
