"This week was amazing!
We got the opportunity to meet up with so many of the members from Scarborough. This week the YSA branch was closed because of the trip to Kitchener, so we decided to go to the nearest chapel in stead....which was SCARBOROUGH! Man...Elder Nugent and I both served here for long periods of time and so we knew everyone. It was a nice reunion with everyone! We saw many of the people we had taught before and the members were so friendly and kind. That is one of the nicest parts of serving a mission is you gain so many lifetime friends. We loved it there!
This week was a little slow in terms of teaching but we still taught many lessons. Elder Nugent and I are brothers! We get along so well and i love the guy. His family are pioneers in Jamaica and helped to establish the church there. So he has some strong background in the church. Its nice to have a stalwart companion.
Shady is still progressing but is planning for her birthday this week and so we will have to see how that goes in terms of helping her prepare for baptism. She has been at home for a while now because of her foot healing, but we continue to visit her and she is learning well.
had some exchanges with other missionaries this week too! Taught some great spiritual lessons on those exchanges and saw many miracles!
I testify that when there is love at home. When there is kindness in our relationships. when we serve others, especially the ones closest to us in our lives, no matter where we are in our relationship with them...love can conquer all fear...it can and will turn the night to day.
I also testify of the power of forgiveness and the great plan of redemption. I know that Christ overcame death for us...not only that but he understands each individual life. He knows me. He comforts me when faint. He gives me power to do that which I feel I cannot. The Atonement is real, and it provides humble power to overcome the obstacles of life. Of this I am certain. Every good thing came into life because of Christ and still does today.
I invite each of you to take the time to ponder and pray about the Atonement of Jesus Christ. To ask god if it is true. Look for ways to use this power in your life and you will find it. The Atonement can heal any hidden wound or scar and can change our very natures :)
Keep being happy and positive!
The Lord will make up the rest :)
Have a great week!
Elder NuWeh! Nugent and Wehi!"
Great news, Elder Wehi sent three photos for this week. I would like to share with you one of the photos that he has shared and the photos are also shared on "Mission Photos" section of this blog.
Again everyone, thank you so much for being patient with me and Elder Wehi. We really appreciate it.
