Well family, another week has gone by. We had a really
good lesson this week. We met with Brad Jacobs and just focused on our relationship with
our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. We also got to show him the Mormon
message that has the rock climber who does the free climb and it talks about
Jesus being our anchor and our support. Brad really loved that and shared his
testimony of how prayer helped him through some of the toughest times of his
life. There also is a young boy down the street that were teaching. HJis name is
Deve. He saw our car and came to the lesson at Brads and he loved it. We also
read Enos with him and got to share our testimonies of the power of prayer and
how its a two way communication with God. They both said they would be at
church this week but Brad had to work and Deve didn't want to come alone so
that was a bummer... However some of the less actives we stopped by to visit
came so that was awesome to see! This week was fast Sunday as well and a Less
active sister gave a super powerful testimony and I know it touched the less
actives that came that day. After church sister Nelson opened her mission
call and she is going to Oregon. I guessed New York lol just a little off...
Earlier in the week I got to go on exchanges with the Linn Elders and they are
truly in the sticks! Ha! Ha! But they have some awesome members out there to help
them. I also got to have my Exchange interviews while fishing on one of the
members lake. It felt so good to have that break! I could also tell the Elder I
was with really needed that break as well. He is really struggling with
adjusting to missionary life... Hopefully our exchange helped. I didn't have the
smoothest transition into the mission life either. Ha! Ha! So we had some common
ground. I just hope he sticks it out. It will be worth it! My life wouldn't be the
same if I didn't, and I know the people I've served with and taught wouldn't be
the same either. Hope everyone is stoked for General Conference!!!!
Love Elder Christensen
