Hey i am hanging in there pretty well...... So i know that you are all dying to know where the Lord has sent me to labor for the next two transfers.. Well I hope you all are... ;) But for the next 3 months or the rest of my training I will be in Hershey PA!! Yes the home of the beloved Hershey Chocolate. Its so crazy being here! my real address is actually 134 Rosedale Hershey PA 17033 ( Mariah put that one on my FB please :) ) Well the work here is great, kinda. Hershey is one of the harder areas in all of the Pittsburgh mission. The numbers here are not very high, people are just stuck in there ways here. But with my faith in the lord and it being my second week, I know that things will start to fall in to place. The ones who are ready to hear the Gospel will fall in to my path. But it will all be according to the Lords will. I learned a lot this past little while, its not on my time table for the next two years its on His. Its no longer two years of my time its two years of his. And I can honestly say that two years of my time will not be enough.
The people here are crazy awesome! The way you feel love for them the second you meet them is truly, Christ love for them! Its amazing to be able to see his love through my own eyes. For example today we were walking here to the library, oh yeah I am in a walk area, so everywhere I go will be on foot!! Fun huh ;) ha. But anyways we were walking here and we have to OYM, open your mouth, so we seen a lady walking down the road so I OYM'd I started by just saying hi, she looked at me and my companion lowered her eyes to our name tags. I continued by asking her if I could ask her a question, she just looked at us and said I only believe in one God and walked away... At first I was so mad! I was so mad cause she didnt even just take the time to hear us out. But as she walked away I got this over whelming feeling of sorrow... And I know that was the Lord allowing me to see her as he does. That feeling of sadness that someone would turn down this happy message that would make her just as happy as I.
This mission is great, all missions are great! I am in love with this work. I just want to stand and have every one feel of my love and of His love. Thats the only hard part about it, is you see all these people that just dont know what they are missing. Oh yeah so my companion His name is Elder Rasmussen, he is related to Peter Newman for those of you who know him. He has only been out for 3 months, he is fresh out of training himself. He is very in touch with the spirit. I love him already, lets just hope it stays that way for the next 3 months! Ha I hope to hear from you all real soon!! I love you all!
