Dulce Familia Mia,
We were able to teach a lady named Lorena again this
week. She told us that she'd read the whole Book of Mormon when she
does get the time to sit down and read it. It amazes me how people that
read just understand things better. It's not like I'm talking about
people that can read either, I mean the people that choose to read. Ha
We have a couple of appointments set up this week
with the Carters and the Herreras. It just feels like there's so much
more to be done than can be in a week. I guess that's why the Lord
sends more missionaries in to take over after we leave.
We have been treated so well by the members here!
The McDowells took us out to pizza on Thursday and Brigham fed us a big
plate of steak one day. We ate at the Araujo's for Giovanna's
birthday! We have also been going to see Diana's friends with her.
It's been really fun and nice having people so willing to work with us.
I swear, any member of the church I've met in Pearson would do
anything for the missionaries. It's gonna be too bad to go back to
normal life for that reason!
Elder Allen and I want to make this the best week of
our missions. We'll be sure to do nothing less than the best so I have
some awesome, fresh stories to tell you when I'm back there in
COLORADO! I love you SO MUCH!!! Sorry, I don't really have a ton more
to say for some reason, so I'll just end it with something intensely
spiritual!
I've told so many people this lately, but it's true!
If nothing else, I'm BEYOND grateful for the change that this mission
has made on me! I feel like this is who I am. I love sharing the
gospel and I want to keep the commandments. Life isn't like what it was
before. I know that change came because of the Atonement of Jesus
Christ. The Lord knows exactly what I've needed to learn and I'm
incredibly happy for every last thing - good and bad - that has happened
on my mission. I wouldn't even call the bad things bad because they
always turn out good in the end anyway. I love you for your love and
support and prayers and I love the people I have been able to serve in
Florida, South Carolina and Georgia! The Book of Mormon is true. It's
undeniable evidence that the Restoration really did happen. I know that
Joseph Smith is a prophet. God loves all of His children!! He wants
them to return to live with him! We should always choose to give him
the benefit of the doubt when we pass through trials. He knows better.
I can finish my mission saying that it was better than I could have
ever imagined. 3 missions, 3 years!!
Love,
Elder Moore
