Fam,
But anyway, Mom how was the talk? I hope it went great, sorry I didn't really provide very much information haha! How were the other talks? It's crazy to think that I have friends literally all over the world right now! Sharing the Gospel and stuff. Truly a miracle! I just want you all to know that for the last 20 minutes, I have been sitting here trying to figure out what I should write for my second paragraph of this email. So I concluded that I would just write what I am doing right now! I am looking up cool documents on LDS.org about Church Doctrine and also about deeper stuff :D haha. I have totally become super interested in the Doctrines of the Church, there is sooo . much we as church members don't even know about and almost all of it is on LDS.org! Yup, it turns out they used to put a ton of crazy cool stuff in the ensigns back in the the 60's-80's I think the members of the church were more ready for things than we are now, IDK. But sometimes it's weird that they even published them cuz they are pretty nuts! I didn't get pictures of Pacifica, but I have videos of it...but since I can't send them since they are too big I will just have to hold on to them! Oh speaking of videos! Did you ever find the Wisdom teeth ones? The Missionary Broadcast was good! It was about teaching repentance and baptizing converts with the spirit. It just talked a lot about getting back to the basics of missionary work and stuff like that. Very insightful and it really helped me evaluate what parts of missionary work I was making too complicated. So I think it was much needed! Hey so some updates on our investigators!Pa**e: We saw him on Wednesday... #progress! We actually were able to have a spiritual discussion! IT was awesome! We talked a lot about the sacrament and why it was important, then more about Jesus Christ and his atonement. He was confused as to why Christ suffered for our sins, he couldn't quite grasp the concept of "He loves us that much, so He did it." But in the end he figured it out and he prayed at the end which was great as well! K***, P***, and ***: Elder Lui taught about the Plan of Salvation, ....they had some ideas about the Garden of Eden, Paradise, and stuff like that, so we are going to probably go over that again. But they were good questions and they committed to pray and read the Book of Mormon to know if it is true! R**: She is still investigating, 4 years and counting now! Elder Lui was on exchanges with Elder A when they taught her, but I guess her concern is still Joseph Smith and Prophets, which in turn means the Book of Mormon. So we are starting all over again with her to help her with the history. But she still has that desire to be baptized, but I guess there are still questions that haven't been answered in like 4 years. Im up to the challenge though. In other news! K*** F** said the prayer yesterday at church! I was super stoked about that! THey are just coming to church and doing everything just fantastico! But everytime they have come the Temple Prep teacher hasn't been there! so they think "it's a sign" UGH!!!! But they are still cool and are still planning on showing up, I am pretty sure they were joking with us...hopefully :D
Love,Elder Meier
PS Elder Lui and I are jokesters...
.we take pictures together.
