Erik is super special. He has such a hard life, and the
gospel and the friends that he has made at church is his one shred of
light and happiness! I don't have much time to say much about him,
because we are going to the temple today.....but I have this certain
love for Erik. I know the gospel is everything to him, and I know that
he is everything to Pai Celestial. I have been privileged to feel a
sliver of the love that God has for Erik. I am soooo happy for him. He
will be baptized by his 16 year old friend, Hairom (it's pronounced like
Hyrum, but the spelling was Brazilianized haha). I will send
pictures!!!
I don't mean to brag or anything, but this girl
pretty much rocks at street contacting. Just kidding. I don't rock at
it........I have just grown to love it. It is funny, because that is the
thing that freaked me out the most at the beginning of the mission. I
just love making the name of the church known....whether or not the
people want to listen. And also..........it is super entertaining at
times because you talk to every type of weird person and hear every type
of stupid excuse. Hahahaha this is probably really bad and Unchristlike
of me, but the people that make obvious efforts to avoid talking to
us.......I go after those ones!!!!! It's unchristlike of me because I do
it to spite them.......but I am also doing them a favor as well!!!
I am officially out of time.....but the good news, I
don't have time because I am going to the House of the Lord!!!
Whoohooo! Love you all!!! I love the Lord and his glorious gospel!!!
