Well what can I say, the work moves on the blessings keep on flowing. We have been working really really hard, and the time seems to be flying away. It seems like just yesterday that E. Lloyd was going off the greener pastures in Ashton, and now look… that was almost a month ago! So much is happening here and the working is moving. A little slower and in a different manner than I would like, but it is still moving. We currently have no solid investigators (not the first time and probably not the last), and so we are really in the hunt (Jeremiah 16:16). We have been talking to everyone and we are finally stating to see some results. We have discovered something…. As the QGC’s come, the appointments come. As the appointments come, the investigators will come. As the investigators come, then the baptisms will come, and that is what this work is all about. The more conversations that we engage ourselves in, the more the lord will help us out. We have been seeing not only more appointments set, but we have been setting really solid appointments. We pulled 70/10 last week, and that’s the best that I have done in my whole mission. We are well on track to beat that this week though. We are excited and really moving ahead. We had a really cool experience on Saturday while we were contacting some potential investigators. I stopped a young guy named Jake and we started to chat. I walked with him for a bit, when he told me that he lived just down the road and that we could come to his home. We went and we taught him. It was a cool, but interesting lesson. He is very knowledgeable about theology and the bible, but he had a problem accepting modern revelation. We talked a lot about the apostasy, and even more about the Restoration and the need for it. The really cool part about this all is that he has two other housemates that are very religious as well. One of them came in at the very end, and made the comment that he always misses the good stuff. It was a really cool experience, and if we are not there for Jake, then we are there for someone else in his house. We really learned a lot, and it was a very neat experience. Study has really helped me with experiences like that for sure. Study is amazing!!!!! I am half way though Mark, and I just started Alma today!!!!!
I really don’t have too much more to say. That’s about all that we have been doing lately. We have been walking all over Manchester, and so I have been shattered every night when we get in, but that’s what a mission is all about right.
Well everyone I am going to cut this one short. I need to shoot off some reply’s to other people. I love you all, and I think and pray for you daily!!!! Keep studying and working hard. The blessings will come as you show your devotion to the Lord!!
Lots of Love,
Elder Neal
