3.2.15
Hey family and friends!
It has been a slower week but nothing that is going to stop
my companion and I. We were supposed to have 3 baptism this Saturday and they
all fell through:( But we have learned a lot from it and learned different ways
we can be teaching better.
So the cooooolest thing happened while I was emailing just
now. I have been sitting next to this lady for about 20 minutes just emailing
away and then the power goes out so I started talking to her and come to find
out she has been looking for a church recently to be a part of. She had been
trying one church but sounded really interested in what I had to say:D Anyways
that is one thing that I have been trying to be better at lately is inviting
EVERYONE to learn. I am not really shy around people I know but trying to talk
to someone I don't know is a struggle but as I have come to know my Savior more
and come to learn more about the gospel I really do want everyone to be a part
of this gospel and receive all the blessing that are associated with it!
We had stake conference and we had both a 70's and an area
70's come and speak to us. The Clarksburg stake got a new stake presidency, and
I never knew how much goes into the process of that. The area 70's speaker
talked about how important it is to have Christ like attributes be a part of councils
and meeting that we have in the church that way we can invite the spirit to be
more present and to avoid the spirit of contention, doing the work of the Lord
and not trying to do it all on our own.
I know that being on a mission has blessed my life
tremendously and that it can bless the lives of so many others! There are so
many promised blessings that come from being a part of this church especially
if we do all we can to obey the commandments of our father in heaven. We also
were able to listen to the president and his wife of the DC temple at
conference and one thing he said was to always be worthy to hold a temple
recommend even if we cannot attend often. I hope everyone is doing well!! I
love and miss you all dearly and hope you have a great week!!
Love
Sister Mauck
