Hello wonderful people!
This week was amazing! Took the opportunity to celebrate my beautiful companions birthday, have a bomb exchange with elder Stevens, see amazing people, preach the truth, EAT a lot, and most importantly having a share of our part in LIGHTING THE WORLD.
Elder Dove turned 22. My little boy is growing up in this big and scary world. We had a huge braii, and the next day went to get our favorite burgers: rocomamas
The next day on exchanges, while it was 41 C, elder Stevens and I had the awful idea of hot curry, and again burgers for dinner. Its the fattest time of the year. I mean fastest ;)
The gospel is moving too. Lots of people have the idea that in December the work slows down. But, we met a couple people this week, Sisanda, and Mama. (i don't know her actual name) We shared with them the blessings of the book of mormon and what it is, and committed both to church. BOTH CAME!!! It was amazing to see them come. I love giving talks at church... It is a great way to pressure... hmmm invite people to come to church! They both loved it, had great questions, and we are very excited for them to learn more, and to advance in the gospel. Funny enough.. Mama is Yonda's mom! lose one, find another!
It was very fun to Light the World this week with our ward. We made this Christmas packages for these people who live in an old age home. It was really fun! then on Sat we gave them all out, and sung Christmas Carols, and had an amazing day. The unity with our ward, and us is getting much stronger, and we are receiving more referrals.
That was the main focus of my talk. Member missionary work! it is the way to go! Please pray and look for ways that YOU can share the gospel with friends, family, and everyone who needs uplifting this season. I love being able to talk to everyone about our Saviour Jesus Christ. He truly is the Light of the World. As we share the Light of Christ that is in us, others will be drawn to Him. I love being a missionary. I love the gospel. ITS ALL TRUE.
stay blessed, and be the best
All my love, ELDER IVINS
