Washington, Serving in the Rain: Ward Mission Plan.... GO!

I had to Ninja clean the Microwave because the floor had just recently been mopped

This week has been a little rough and not much has happened. Which means it is probably going to be a short email.

This week we have been making an emphasis on teaching our members that they can also do missionary work. Which most members seem to think that only members who have name tags on can do it. This is more wrong then having to do math homework during Summer break. Members of the earth... You are, in my opinion, way more important than the missionaries in a multitude of ways. Now hike up your pants and do it.

Anyways there is my 2 cents on member missionary work. We were able to teach 5 member lessons this week. Our last one I think brought the most fruit. We were at the Sutton Jr. household and we showed them the video called, "Faith in the Work of Salvation." Before we even said anything afterward about what we as regular members can do, they went off on how they need to invite their friend who has been asking questions about the church. Then as we were talking, they just invited him right then and there over the phone. I was just totally pulling a determined baby face, and saying yes, yes, this is exactly what we need to be doing. Dash Point now has a day where they are going to teach the first lesson to this friend of the Sutton Jr. VICTORY! It is the best when the members finally understand that the success of getting someone baptized isn't in them getting baptized, but in them actually giving them an invitation to act.

Anyways sorry that it was so short. Here is the news about transfers. Drum roll ..................................................................................................................................................

........................I am going to the Korean Branch. Extensive fist pumping! I now get to try and learn a language. Plus I am going to be with one of my favorite Elders. Elder Jeong. We are in a tri-panionship with Elder Kim.

Well thats all for this week. I hope you had an awesome week as well.
