PMF Central

Hello family!

Man, I know I say this every week, but this week went by so fast. It feels like we didn't have to do everything! But still, some really awesome things happened.

It's kind of been part-member family central this week. We were able to meet with quite a few part-member families in the branch, which has been super great! One that I mentioned last week is Itzy. We were able to start teaching her this week and she came to church yesterday! It's pretty funny though, because she's still this typical, anti-social teenager. But she's still coming to church! And the other PMF that we're really excited for is Daniel. I also mentioned him last week. We were able to have an amazing first lesson with him last week. It was really cool to see the Spirit work with him and help him understand. And he even accepted a baptismal date for the 19th of September! So we're SUPER excited for him.

We received word from our Zone Leaders that we're going to have another set of missionaries in the branch next transfer. So we're going to have to split the areas. So it looks like we're going to lose like 80% of our investigators. So it's going to be like starting all over. Except for Daniel! We'll still get to teach him!

A huge focus in the mission right now is using the members more often in our missionary work. And we've already been seeing some amazing miracles through using the members. It's really the only way to reach the highest potential in this work is if we all work together! So we're really excited for all of the amazing things that are going to happen for this area.

We also had a Zone Conference last week and pretty much the whole thing was about charity. And how this work, and all the service we render means nothing if we don't have charity for one another. We watched the Mormon Message, "Lift". It's my favorite one ever. It's soooo good. If any of you haven't watched it yet, go watch it! It explains so perfectly the value of service. And how really it's the only way to truly heal ourselves. Love it!

Love you all! I know this work is the Lord's! And that this is truly His church. It continues to bring me so much happiness in my life and I'm so happy to be able to bring this message to others.

Have a great day!
