PREPARE a referral for the missionaries

"So did anyone else notice that all the members in the church were asked to find someone for the missionaries to teach before Christmas? Not every family, not every couple, every member. Has anyone made any plans for that? If you don't make any plans, you probably won't do it."

These are the words of a good friend of mine who is currently on the mission..... so......plans? who`s got them! you realize that if every member gives a reference and is serious about the work of salvation our....um what`s the word.... number of members.....will double! 30 million members of Christ`s Church.... imagine that....

Christchurch... Reminds me of you Dad. Hope all is well in the desert that i call home... You all sound good, you look great and i just love you all.... Mom asked me once if it was ever hard to think of things to right you all on lunes(monday sorry sorta slipped out there...) and the answer is: no. There just isn`t enough time to put all my thoughts and feelings into a letter home....

I`m just going to make a list real fast and ask for some things in specific, sound good.... before that though i just want to thank everyone who prays for me and my companions, the Lord`s investigators.... i can`t express what it feels like to be in the mission. not in the time that i have anyway... just know this.... I LOVE YOU:) and because i love you i will reiterate what one of my beloved friends has said....so have you made plans do PREPARE a referral for the missionaries? if not....um....do it. Look for an opportunity to talk to a nonmember whom you really, honestly, and whole-heartedly love and just talk to them. I promise as president Holland has, That if you listen to your friend something they say will relate to the Gospel. Be persistent and you will be able to convert 1.millions of people 2. one of God`s Children 3. Yourself. I promise that one of the three things i have just written will happen. We just need to have the faith that it will....

i didn`t expect to talk so much about that ....but i know it will help....especially if you don`t know how exactly to share the Gospel.....

1. R. She and her family are new investigators....i don`t really know much about them and they didn`t go to church yesterday but...i`ve got a good feeling about them... pray that we can soften the heart of Her husband...whose name i don`t know.....

2. D. Funny how her situation is the exact same as R`s....um...that is weird...she needs the same kind of help...pray for 1 her husband to be less....chocante(forgot the word...cold?)2. that we can find her in a moment that she is not busy....

3. J. This is just strange...they are all the same....she`s ready to accept us... but her husband is ....slow to accept....pray for him (E) to understand the importance of what we say by the Spirit.

4. Es. Found one of her old Christian friends and didn`t go to church with us.... Pray that our words will sound in her mind as well as her heart....

um.... yeah....that`s about it...

oh one more



I Love You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
