1. we still do
English class! Not so much people come, but it is all good because I
feel like the weak ones got filtered out from my hard core style of
teaching HAHA just kidding, its good though. like 8 to 10 come, all
haitians!
2. We have a baptism this saturday
of Chelo and Juan Luis! They are such studs, they are working so so so
hard to succeed and come closer to Christ, it is amazing. Chelo went to a
young single adult activity with diego, miguel, and Nene and he had a
lot of fun. But he kept saying ¨todavia me falta murphy!¨ which means
that its all good there, but wheres his boy Elder Murphy? HAHA i love
that guy.
3. Elder Rincon´s dad did die, which was hard. But he went home for
2 days, and was able to do some good work out there. He gave a pamphlet
and a book of mormon to his Uncle and now his uncle is baptised. Its
really amazing, I talked to him and he said it was hard but he is glad
to be out here and just loves the work. hes a good example to me.
But yeah, its been an AWESOME week. We had 76 PEOPLE
IN CHURCH!!! HOW GREAT IS THAT??? I have never been so grinny in my
life. It was the most ever seen in Villa Gonzalez. We had 7
investigators, Chelo, Juan Luis, Ambioris, Nene´s friend Carlito, and
the children of Rosi, brian, wilson and Brittani. WOW! And 4 less active
members who we work with too! AHH I WAS SO HAPPY it was so fun! Really I
love it. Nene was saying ¨murphy this is your hard work!¨ which I would
like to agree with but really its all just the blessings the Lord sees
fit to give me.
Mom, I know you said that you would like to come
back to visit with me someday. I made the promise to Miguel and Nene
that I wouldnt come back and visit until they returned from their
missions. I hope youre okay with that, they leave soon and I wouldnt
want to come back without seeing them. Theyre going to be awesome
missionaries, nene goes out with us literally whenever we ask, which is
like 3 or 4 days of the week. He always says ¨the biggest rule to the
smallest, I am going to keep them. And if my companion doesnt agree, we
are going to have problems¨ hes going to be THE MAN out there.
But yeah, its been a real special time here. We are
helping people out and I feel so much like a servant of my Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ. My life is this work, and I wouldnt change it for
anything. I want so bad to help these people! They are so great. I have
never been so happy, and it is a little sad to think that I am already a
fourth of the way done. i have to use my time wisely!
Love you all, thanks for your prayers.
Elder Murphy
p.s.
I remembered it was Mallory Mortensen´s bday on the 20th, I hope shes
finishing up these papers because THIS ARMY OF 80000 MISSIONARIES NEEDS
HER TOO!
