Letter #61 from Australia

September 18, 2016

Dear Family & Friends,

           This week was really good and once again we were blessed to have a couple of new investigators! We have done a lot of door knocking and street contacting and it was really successful. We were welcomed into a couple of people’s houses to teach them and we were even fed by one family! Overall the work in our area in going really well and the investigators that we are teaching are awesome! We are still teaching a couple of Nepalese families and we had a great experience with one of them this week!

          So because we do not have any teaching materials in their language, we have to try our best to teach them in English! Well we have only learned a couple of words in Nepalese and so we try to teach them with their language too. Well this past weekend we taught one of them and it went so well! We prayed really hard that he would be able to understand and that somehow and someway, we would be able to have the gift of lounges in order to teach him! As the lesson began, we started to teach him in English and broken Nepalese, and it worked! He understood it so well and we were able to invite him to be baptized! It was so amazing to see how the spirit was with us and was able to help us during the lesson! 

          I love my mission so much and it has been the best decision that I have ever made! I am sorry that I don't have too much to report on this week, but overall the week was good! I hope that school is going well for everyone and that all of you are safe and happy! I really appreciate all of your love and support for me and for all of the other missionaries around the world! Keep up the great work and know that I love and miss you all! Remember to pray, read your scriptures and trust God!

Love,

calling us to tell us that they are taking us out to lunch! It was
super fun to be able to spend some time with them to get to
know them better!​
