Elder Pack's Letter 5/21/12


Hello family and friends!!!!

I hope that everyone is great and having a great time were ever they be at this moment in time.
We had a good week.  We are working with a young adult named Fabian, and well he is slowly progressing but that is better than not progressing.  The week before we had to think about if we were going to keep teaching him because he wasn’t progressing at all.  He wasn’t reading and not praying very much…also missed church on Sunday.  We decided to teach him, and well, teach him about the importance of reading constantly.  We showed him a few short Mormon messages that really helped him.  He has a hard time seeing that the Lord is answering his prayers as to if the church is true or not. We know that the Lord has answered him a few times.  He told us when he felt great in church and felt a change when he started talking to us.  So, when we came back with him on Saturday we wanted first to know if he had done his homework.  He was happy to tell us yes, but most of all he was happy because he felt that the Lord was very proud of him.  You could see it in his face that due to his work he was even happier and was even more open with us than usual.  It was great!!!   But, when his godfather asked him "If that’s how you feel then which day are you getting baptized hahahahaha," he got defensive and said "Wo wo step by step" haha it was great.  I know that he will be getting baptized in the next few weeks. He came back from his assigned homework and told us things that usually people with more time in the church understand.

I’m glad that I have this time in my life to serve the Lord and that I can do His will.  When my friends get the chance to go on the mission, I will tell them, do it.  It will be the best time of your lives!!!!.

We have plenty of work ahead of us and well I’m happy to offer my body as a tool in the hand of my God.

Hope that everyone has a great week love you all,
LOVE ELDER PACK
