My companion is fluent in Swedish German and English.
He can also kind of understand Afrikaans because it's similar to English
Swedish and German. Me and him have been having the greatest time.
I don't think I've ever worked this hard in my whole mission. We are
really smashing it, it feels great. We've been having some really amazing
spiritual experiences. Just this week a guy got online and ordered a Book
of Mormon. We went and brought it to him and sat down with him and he explained
to us that he is the founder of a church that has 8 branches. He's very
wealthy and he has 5 kids. 4 of them have already married and moved out
of the house. He basically has a massive household with so many potential
members. He told us that after all of this time he just feels so drawn to
learn about Mormonism and the Mormon book and that he wants to learn all the
details about it so he can decide for himself if he wants to join the
church. He said that he wants us to come by about once or twice a week
and talk about things which is really exciting. He is also in like 5
different organizations in the community. This guy is a potential stake
leader so I'm really excited to teach him.
We also met a guy named L. He is really
awesome. He's 19 and he's so excited about the Restoration. He told
a bunch of his friends and stuff and he's planning on getting baptized on July
30th. Even though I just met him this past week my vision for him is that
he will get his mission call before I go home from mission.
Me and Elder Lillback got our hair cut and Elder Lillback
decided to go big or go home hahaha. We are just having the greatest time
together. Right now we have 34 people on date for baptism for the end of
the transfer so our goal is to have at least 10 baptisms together which may be
a bit high but we're working super hard and we are very optimistic. I can
really see the Lord blessing me in my missionary work right now.
