Kia
Ora Whanau!!
I
think I talked a little bit about how I'd been having a rough couple weeks in
my last email. I'm doing a lot better now though! I had been praying for help
and I was expecting to feel an overwhelming feeling of love and acceptance to
bring me up. That's what I had always experienced before on the mission. So I
was waiting for that but it never really came. I was able to learn that
sometimes the Lord's power of deliverance isn't always manifest in grandiose
ways, it can come in a subtle feeling of peace that slowly seeps into our
lives. It was almost like He said to me, "Jared, you have permission to be
happy. Just choose to be okay and you will be. I've given you all the help you
need."
We
started a new way to ask for referrals by going through all the people our
members know in their families and work and school and facebook to see who's
not a member and then committing them to pray about who to start working with.
We get anywhere from 20-100 names with each family!! Not all referrals of
course, but potentials! I'm really excited for this to play out.
Love
you all!
Love,
Elder
Benjamin
