I have been doing extremely well. I have been having a great
time in the office. I have been learning tons of new ways to work more
efficiently and I have become very good at counting money! I can see the
importance of a budget and organization skills and I have been applying more
effort to both of those skills in my life. We currently are teaching a couple
and they are struggling with the family. We were in a lesson and their marriage
was hanging by a thread. The situation was extremely delicate and we were
able to help them see that this is not what God wanted. That they were going to
have to let go of the past and Fight for the family that they wanted. Another
couple of recent converts have been having marital issues due to the dependency
that one has to her parents. I know one thing though. When we do all we can the lord provides the rest.
This week I have been learning lots of new ways to teach and
ways to help people understand Doctrinal Principles. My teaching skills have
tanked a little since coming into the office. We do not get to do much teaching
but when we do I always feel the spirit. Right now we are teaching about 4
Investigators, 8 less actives and about 15 Recent converts. We have been
focusing a lot on helping the less actives come back to church because that is
something that the ward has definitely struggled with. We have four less
actives who are all coming to church and learning tons and reaching out to
friends and family and inviting us to teach them. I have been studying a lot
harder. It has been a ton of fun to see how the lord guides you in your studies
for your lessons. I am also looking for a way to learn Spanish while in the
office. I have been looking up tons of synonyms and I have been trying to
improve my vocabulary base.
My week has gone really great. I hope all goes well with the weather!
Love
Shaw
