(no family e-mail this week. Here is a quick e-mail Jake wrote me....he was trying to decide whether to apply to be an EFY counselor or not)
I decided to apply because it's something I want to do. During Sacrament
meeting yesterday a family got up and sang the EFY Medley. It gave me a lot of
peace and it got me excited about the future.
As a zone leader our
responsibilities are pretty much the same as they were before. We get to be
around more missionaries and have opportunities to help them as well as our own
area. It's quite enjoyable.
This week was kind of
frustrating because we had a lot of people commit to come to church then they
didn't come. Why don't people just come to church? We're going to be working a
lot on that. It was fun this week though and we got to teach a lot of
lessons.
Haha Jace always has something new up his sleeve to do.
Hopefully he'll watch out for Ebola. I'm pretty sure that's what girls have...
or maybe I was thinking about cooties. Ha probably the same thing. Anyways he
wrote me a really nice email this week.
It seems like a lot of our investigators have a lot of challenges in their
lives that distract them from the gospel, but at the same time I think it helps
them to be humble enough to listen. We just hope to help them understand that
the gospel will help them through their trials. One of our investigators, Aaron,
lost one of her children in a custody battle and it's hard for her to really
focus on anything else. Everything is going to work out though.
I love you mom!
