This week was good, I was able to learn a lot about how we always need to be a light to these people, and be the example for them. This week we were able to visit a reference from one of the members of our ward. He came to church last week and we visited him on Saturday. He told us that he was really impressed by the church, and that he feels like he needs to be a part of it. His friend that brought him to church has always been an example to him. He told us that he has a few friends that aren’t really on the right path, and that he doesn’t know what path to choose. He is looking for the right path, so we invited him to be baptized. He accepted a baptismal date for this month and he came to church again yesterday. We always need to be good examples for the people that surround us, and especially as missionaries. Because everyone is always watching us and what we do. If we make one mistake they will call us out on it. And I feel like they should, because we are representatives of Jesus Christ, so we need to act like Him. This helps us to improve on our mistakes and always do what’s right. My companion is improving on his teaching every day, but he feels like he hasn’t improved very much. I need to just help him and build his confidence. I remember my training, and the things that I most remember aren’t the things that he [companion] said, but what he did. He always set a good example for me, so I want to do the same for my companion. We should be having a few baptisms this month, so we know we need to work harder than ever so that we can make it happen.
Love, Elder Monson
