Sounds like everything is going well at home. Tell Matt and Jacqueline congrats on their baby! That is exciting. Lots of things are changing here in my life... Like less hair on the head and... Yeah... That is about it. Just kidding! Lots of things are changing here in Moroni! Life is awesome!
Suni and children should be getting baptized this weekend. She just needs to hold in strong with quitting smoking, but it has been over a week now so I feel like she will be able to do it. Her fear was the interview because a member told her they make you confess everything you have ever done.... So... We cleared that one up! She has strong desires to change her life, it is awesome.
Roque... Well... Monday night when we called her she said she didn't want to get baptized. So naturally we dropped everything and went. The world was coming down on her. So we had several lessons with her this week, all of which were Spirit packed. She was holding her ground pretty strong though. So we went in Saturday with all the faith in the world and... she told us that she knows the Church is true and that she needs to get baptized, but she can't do it now... It was one of the hardest moments of my mission. The Spirit was undeniable. It was so hard to see someone reject the answer from God. We are still praying for her, but for now at least she will stay with her decision. Hanks and I felt the spiritual confirmation that we did all we could do which was a nice comfort. One day.
Well we watched some Elder Bednar videos about light and the light of Christ today in leader council. I realized the importance of helping our light grow within us because light chases away darkness. As our light grows, we will be able to help others get rid of the darkness in their lives. Let us all strive to brighten that light.
I love you all. The Church is true. If you don't know, read the Book of Mormon and pray about it. Also, "Ask the missionaries! They can help!" But seriously we can. Have a great week! Can't wait to talk to you on Saturday!
Love, Elder Naegle
