Hey y'all!
Lots of great things going on over here! I am staying in
Christiansburg for a 4th transfer and am still a Sister Training Leader so I
guess my companion and I are doing something right:) This coming week is going
to be really cool!! So one of the members of the presidencies of the 70's is
going to be coming to our mission, Elder kopeschke. We have a mission
conference for it, split into 2. Ours will be on Wednesday in Roanoke, VA and
then on Friday the leadership in the mission, Zone leaders, Assistance and the
Sister Training Leaders are going to a council with him in Charleston! A crazy
week coming up. Lots of reasons to prepare. When general authorities come into
the mission our president always gives us special things to study and for Him,
we are studying a talk on the atonement and he has asked us to come with
questions to ask him.
So miracle from the other week! We went to church and there
was this lady and her son, he is in his mid 20's, I think. Anyways we started
talking to him and he had never really heard of the church and just wanted to
check it out but wasn't interested in much more. But we started teaching him
and he wants to get baptized at the end of the month! How cool is that!!
Heavenly Father really prepares people for us to teach the gospel to or even
share a testimony about the Savior. Everyone is at a different spot in their
life but everyone can use a message about Christ! One thing I have been working
on lately is Charity, Remembering that everyone is a Child of God and that I am
not perfect. In combination with charity comes working on patience with people.
The struggles are real but as I have looked at people in a more charitable way
my testimony of how much God loves each and every one of us individually has
grown!! I hope that you all have a wonderful week! I love and miss you all
dearly! Keep working hard and loving the gospel with all your heart might mind
and strength!!
One thing that my companion and I have been working on the
past few weeks is doing a gratitude prayer in the middle of the day. And since
we have been doing that, usually right after lunch, I have really realized the
many little tender mercies and blessings that our Heavenly Father blesses us
with though out the day. The little things are the things that can make the
biggest difference!!
I hope you are all doing well! The gospel truly blesses
lives and is the center of real joy! I love you all and hope you have a great
week!
Love,
Sister Mauck
