Wow what a week!! Well that is a good way to describe every
week! Haha :) Life in Indonesia is AWESOME! Though this week actually was a
little rough. Our progressing investigators aren't really progressing and we
didn't get any new investigators this week... So we just didn't feel all that
successful... That's okay - we'll just work even harder next weeek!!
Ibu E didn't make it to church so she will not be baptised
on the eleventh which is a bummer others also didn't make it... in fact no one
at all made it haha. That was a little depressing because we really tried so
hard to get them to come! I just know if they decide to act on the things
we teach them, they will be so blessed!!! Elder Evans asked a very piercing
question to us missionaries last week - he said "Do you actually really
truly believe that this gospel is the things that will bring these people the
greatest happiness?" I definitely had to stop and think about that. But
after some thinking I realized that I do believe that - i know that God gave us
this gospel so we can choose to live it and because we live it, we will be
happy! I just know this is God's work!! I know he called me here so I could
bring these blessings that come from living the gospel to the Indonesian
people!
We're really excited for next week though! We will be in the
new church for next week!! Wahoo!!! I'm so excited!! We have a really big open
house planned for Saturday which we hope will go well!!! We're so excited!! The
new church is so cool!! It even has a baptismal font which was a pleasant
surprise!!!
Sorry no great stories or anything in here today!! Shout out
to my brother Drew turning 23 today :) Love you all and I just testify that
even when things are hard - there is a God in heaven who is your Father who
always loves you!!!
Elder BRown
