Howdy howdy everyone! It is great to get to have yet another story time with you all!
This week the craziest story of all has to be that we were finally able to put one of our friends on date, but he is the most extra person I know other than my sisters probably, so when he was like "hermanos..." I was ready to hear some rejection but then he said he would love to be baptized! We were so hyped and smiling but then he said he wanted to wait until the summer, and said its because he feels a "special spiritual connection with the sun" and after one of my companions said he wasn't gonna be here in the summer (because he leaves in April) I hopped in and said we were thinking about in the next week, not the next few months, and we literally promised him there was going to be sun on the 4th...and he was like "if it's sunny hermanos... then I will get baptized this 4th!!!" (Prayers (and rain dances) up for real please we need sun in Washington)
This week has been so spiritual, I had to give a talk on church attendance and the missionary that went before me talked about being a disciple of Christ and I threw a lot of what I had prepared out the window and talked about her talk and then how through church attendance we can be more like disciples, it was good I hope but it made me think about: How are we being disciples in our own lives? And as a missionary that is exactly what I get to do every day, find faults in people's lives, and boldly ask them to change... so the question is, what are YOU willing to do to change?
Love you all
Sincerely,
Elder Lucas Witte
