post on the blog but I felt like I wanted to say Hello to all of you! I am doing great here at the MTC and can't wait to get out into the field! I have learned so much but there is one thing in particular that I wanted to share. All over the scriptures we read about great missionaries who are such good missionaries that they baptized thousands. Something that we've been taught here is that we can't just be average missionaries any more.
We need to be the best missionaries that the church has ever had.
When I got my call the first thing that everyone said to me was,
Oh, I have people there!" Which is wonderful, but the second thing they
would usually say is, "That is going to be a hard mission." The prophets
have told us that there are millions of people in the British Isles
waiting to hear the truth, they just don't know that they are.
That is where the missionaries come in. Out of everything
I have been taught here the thing that sticks out in my mind the most
is Faith. With faith in the Lord, ANYTHING is possible. One of my teachers said to us, "The only reason South America and Africa get so many baptisms is because they believe they can baptize thousands.

The only reason Europe gets so few baptisms is because they believe they can't." I want to believe that I can baptize thousands. I know that I can not do it by myself, but with the Lord I can. I know that it is going to be hard but I have made it my goal to believe this and to work as hard as I can because I know that the Lord can help me do it. So I was hoping that I could have every ones support in believing that we can baptize thousands. It is great if just I believe, but how much greater would it be if we all believed. Not just for me, but for every missionary across the world. I know that this is possible. The Lord is not restricted by time or anything! All He needs is our Faith, and through us I know that he can create miracles.

I ran across your blog and wanted to write because my son is in your picture. Back row right in the middle with the black hood on. This is the first picture that I have seen-so of course I cried.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to write because I came upon your blog and saw the picture you posted of your district. My son is in the picture. He is the one on the back row, middle, with the black hood on. Thanks for posting the picture. It is the first one that I have seen.
