Pushing Along

Hey all!!!!

So things are goin well still being happy and pushing along. Not many people are really receptive at the moment but its all good its always darkest before the dawn. Just gotta keep pushing forward. I have been studying on personal time Preach My Gospel along with the New Testament. Can i just say that the life of Christ is sooooo awesome. Really he worked so many miracles. As i was studying PMG i forgot what was the topic but i looked up a scripture in Helaman 10:4-5. After reading it the thought popped into my head and i felt a deep desire to have those two scriptures be me at the end of my mission. to know what it says you gotta read it!!!!!!!!!

So while on the mission a thing that i have found to be a huge importance in the lives of people including my own is to commit ourselves to our decisions. It can be in school, work, life, or what ever little or big thing. We have been talking to Gustavo who has been visiting with the missionaries for a bit of time and we have been trying to put a fixed date for his baptism. Normally we with them put the goals or the date of the baptism but this time we said hey gustavo we know you want to be baptized but you have to choose a date. we all sat there in a bit of silence and he told us the 27th of this month. since this is his commitment i know that he will pull through.

The ward that im in is really awesome. The sad thing is that there are few priesthood leaders or priesthood. We have youth and a whole mix of stuff. Right now we are trying to help the ward come all together and build each other up. I am truly grateful for the two wards that i have been apart of Plymouth 1st/Med Lake and Naperville 1st.  The experiences that i have had in these wards are amazing.

So for the next zone conference that will be with an area president, president arnold he has asked us to learn more about the atonement. Man the atonement is so awesome i love it. Really Christ did so much for us. its incredible the pain and suffering he took. its hard just to imagine the love that he has for us its unmeasureable i cant believe it. i am so grateful for him and his sacrifice. without him we would be completely lost.

my best wishes and love go to you all
