Wow, what a busy week!
We've had lots of lessons with investigators and others, including Glenn...an 83 yr old that is still kickin' and he loves discussing religion! He's a member of the Church of Christ. Despite difference of belief, he says that he really admires us and our missionary work, and actually believes quite a bit of our faith--including the Book of Mormon, which he reads and shows us his favorite verses.
On Thursday we drove 2 hours to Tupelo, Mississippi for Zone Conference. It is a beautiful drive there, and the conference was excellent!
Yesterday we went out with a sister in our ward who goes out with us every Sunday for several hours. Her help to us is priceless! We were able to visit several new people in the ward and some less actives who live a good distance away. Team ups and member missionary work is what really helps the work progress!
During my personal study recently, I read Alma 36:12-21. This is a beautiful description of Alma the younger's conversion story, which I believe we can all relate to in one way or another. We all make mistakes, we all feel the pangs of guilt, and we all need redemption from the infinite grace of Jesus Christ. According to Alma, there is "nothing so exquisite and sweet" as the light that comes from being cleansed by Christ's blood. So, my plea to you is to not forget what your Savior has done for you.
Hope everyone has a beautiful week!
