For the first time in my mission, we planned an activity and got to actually do it! It was so much fun. The activity was called “Game Night” because the members are learning English jaja. Anyway, it was pretty much a game of jeopardy but with topics like prophets, scriptures, church history, and a little section of English. It went extremely well. The members are pretty competitive here, and there were a few times when we had to calm them down and remind them that they weren’t playing for the world cup, jaja but they did really great, and they learned a lot. I’ll put some pics on here for y’all.
Last night we were teaching a man named Oscar about the Book of Mormon, and he told us something super cool/woah moment type thing. We had just finished explaining the book and he said to us, “I’ve heard lots of people tell me that this book is evil, and that it goes against everything that the bible teaches, but I want to read it for myself to really know. Everytime that you’ve come to my home, I’ve felt something special, and I want to learn more.” After he told us that, I looked over to my comp, and he had the same look of awe on his face. It’s crazy how hard Satan tries to get people to not read the Book of Mormon, because he knows the power and truthfulness that it contains. I testify with all my heart that we’re in a war, and that it’s our job to share the message of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ with everyone, because this war that we’re in continues to get worse and worse. But we don’t need to fear if we’re doing the things that our prophet tells us. Please don’t take for granted the great blessing it is to know that we’re children of God, and that He has a plan for us, and that if we’re obedient to His laws and commandments, we will be protected from this ever changing and darkening world, Mosiah 2:41.
Love you guys so much! Have a great week.
Elder Anderson
