Thanks for the birthday wishes! Wow 20! I am not sure if we will do any celebrating, we will be driving back from Bulawayo that day. We will be busy all day because we are going on exchanges with the AP's.
This week was good, we went to Bulawayo for MLC and met Elder Sitati from the Seventy and he gave us some great and simple advice. He told us to love everyone; other missionaries and the people we are teaching and not to get upset and be more understanding of where they are coming from. We are all different but we are all God's children.
We are planning to have 3 baptisms this week, Divine, Daniel and Caroline, so exciting! They are ready to be baptized. They have read the Book of Mormon which is so powerful, they are definitely ready to be members of the church.
We are teaching a kid named Trust, he is a referral from Daniel. He isn't very good at speaking English but he asked me to help him learn it because he loves what we teach. He wants to come to church but is nervous to do so because of the language barrier. I felt to tell him that if he has a true desire to live what we teach and wants to learn English, God would help him. I know that God will help him if he really wants to. God can perform many miracles but we first have to show him that we have faith. We have to follow his commandments and live the Gospel and repent of our sins. He wants to bless us and this is how we open the door to those blessings.
Love,
Elder Rasmussen
