As a result of the extra focus on the Savior this week, my companion and I made efforts to serve others and talk with as many people as we could. The entire mission has a goal for each person to talk to 10 people each day! Reaching out to others and being a friend is what Christ would do. I love trying to resemble the Savior and become a better representative of Him each day. I think living our lives the way that He would is the way we can have true happiness in this life.
Okay now for the details of the week. We have been teaching this lady named Ratchani and she is one of the most interesting person that I have ever taught. She has accepted a baptismal date for the 12th and she is really progressing. She has told us she feels something really amazing when she takes the sacrament that she hasn't felt before. We told her that it was the Spirit bearing witness to her that this is where she belongs - this is the Lord's true church. Some background for Ratchani is that she has been studying other churches for over 10 years and doesn't believe Buddhism to be true either. She met us after English class and wanted to learn more so we set up an appointment and let me tell you she had over 100 questions (like seriously). However, as she has read the Book of Mormon and prayed she has come to a knowledge that this is the only true church! I can't wait for her baptism soon!!! Those that have questions I challenge you to read in the Book of Mormon and pray!
I also got to go to this buffet place with almost everyone in this ward which was way cool! All of the members here are incredible and I have come to really love them!
This week we had 5 of the people we are teaching at church, one being มิน(min). He is doing great and will hopefully be baptized next week. He has progressed so much, the only thing that could be holding him back is smoking. He has almost completely quit, I think he just smokes one cigarette a day. He is way awesome though!
That's about it for the week. Yesterday one of the people in my house found some bug spray and used it to make a giant flame with a taser. He was going a little crazy last night and burned some of the hair off my arm haha.
Love this mission and doing the Lord's work!!! Have a great week!!!
Love,
Elder Lowe
