Hi,
How are you doing? I'm doing well, we had a good week!
This week we had Zone Conference we had a mission Tour so Elder Palmer the Area President and in the Seventy came and taught us a few things, I'm pretty sure he was here to help motivate the missionaries because a few of them are complaining about the situation here with the money and all the other stuff that is going on.
He taught us something cool that is pretty unique to this mission. He asked us a simple question, he said "raise your hand if you have ever been approached by someone telling you they want to know more about what you teach?" Everyone raised their hand, he said that this is amazing, no where else in the world can a whole entire mission say that this has happened to them. He just told us that this place is so so ripe for the harvest and we need to focus on finding young adults and even older youth because they are the ones that will be the leaders of the Church here in the future.
I'm staying warm and healthy and happy everything is going well! Power goes off and on like every other day we have it, we just make sure our food stays cold and that we just keep the door closed on the fridge so that the food doesn't go bad.
Our little miracle this week was Myiabongwe... last time we met with him we gave him the Gospel of Jesus Christ Pamphlet to read. When we went back this week and asked him what he had learned he told us he had read everything in the book, so we went through the book and we discussed: Faith and Repentance, Baptism by water and Receiving the Holy Ghost and Enduring to the End. At the end I asked him what he though he needed to do and he told us he needs to repent and be baptized so that is when we gave him a date to be baptized.
My comp and I are doing super well! We are working pretty hard and are getting along really well.
Love,
Elder Rasmussen
