Here is a question
from Bogue and my response.
What do you think the
hardest thing is to do for your mission?
Find the soul-satisfying
balance between perfect obedience and being able to goof off while not being so
hard on myself. You know?
This past week we had
2 confirmations, 3 investigators with a baptismal date, 5 investigators at
sacrament meeting, 9 member present lessons, 10 other lessons, 4 progressing
investigators, 5 referrals, 5 new investigators, 1 less-active visit, and 45
contacts. These are some of the "key indicators" that we focus
on each week.
If you read Preach My
Gospel it talks a lot about having a member at lessons with investigators.
I testify that it is so necessary for an investigator to build a
relationship with a member. The missionaries leave after they are
finished in the area, but the investigator stays. After the missionary
leaves who is the friend to the investigator? Hopefully a member who is
also staying. GO TO LESSONS WITH THE MISSIONARIES! Be that member
who loves the missionaries and who greets all of the investigators. Ask
the missionaries who their investigators are that are at church. Make
friends with them!
Love,
Jacob
