This week was a rather tough one. Thought a lot about the
advice that you and Dad would give me if I could talk to you. Many times the
SUCK IT UP Story came to mind. Interviews with president happened and I told
him that all that was left was to suck it up get back up and keep walking
forward. Sometimes we fall, sometimes we fall hard but we can always get back
up and keep walking.
We are going to go paintballing. I will not participate.
Tonight we have three lessons planned and the Assistants have a baptism in our
ward so we will invite all of the investigators that we can!
One investigator has been struggling with her parents
to get permission to become baptized for almost a year now. She was almost
eighteen and she told her parents that she knew it was true and that after she
turned 18 she would still want to go through with the baptism however she did
not want to do it without getting their permission and the other day she ran
into the church with the biggest smile on her face and I knew that she would be
baptized in a relatively short amount of time. It was a good day in the ward
and everyone in the ward council had watched her progress for so long and to
see her become baptized is a great victory for the lord. The lessons are with a
few less actives and two young men who are not extremely interested in the
church but their family members are members and they would like to learn more.
EXTREMELY SMART KIDS! The older one Kevin is so interested and opened minded.
It is absolutely amazing. Good news, Ezra, a member who lives here and is
constantly hanging out with us is going to give me all the photos that he has.
It will be awesome. Bad news, Elder Muñoz got an emergency change back into the
field and the new materials secretary has not figured out how to pick up the
package yet. It is here in Arequipa.
Love Elder Tanner
