Dear Family and Friends,
How
are you guys all doing? I am doing great here in Anthem doing the
Lord's work. The weather has still been hot but below 110 so it is not
so bad just another month or so then it will start cooling down below
100. This week was a good week teaching. We finally met with Micah
after a long time because he has been so busy during the summer. We
just talked to him about his thoughts on Baptism and he feels he is does
not want to do it and does not fully understand why he needs to be
Baptized. Hopefully we can start meeting with him regularly and help
him gain a testimony about the restored Gospel and how he can be blessed
by living it. We had a spiritually, wonderfull lesson with Joni this
week on the Book of Mormon and we read 3 Nephi 11 with her. It was so
great reading the powerful - visit of Jesus Christ to the People in
America and how he established his Church. She knows that the gospel is
true and the spirit was so strong as she said the closing prayer and
thanked God for all her blessing that she receives through her trials.
We also met with Lea this week and had a great lesson with her on how
the Book of Mormon came about and what the Book of Mormon talks about.
Pictures and analogies works really well with her to understand the
Principles of the Gospel. This week we did alot of finding through
members and keep checking on their missionary work and help them to
Share the Gospel. I had a great exchange with Elder Farnsworth in my
area, nothing much went on besides visits which lots of people were not
at home. I had a great District Meeting on teaching people, not lessons
by Following the Teaching in PREACH MY GOSPEL in
Chapter 10 on Asking inspired questions and checking for understanding
to teach to their needs. On Saturday, I got a call from President
Taylor to TRAIN A NEW MISSIONARY
for the 3rd time. The Lord is definitely keeping me working hard until
the end of my mission by giving me the most important assignment you
can give on a mission to be a trainer. So Elder Beck is getting
transfered along with Elder Ure and Okelberry in my District. Elder
Farnsworth, Elder Burgoyne, and myself are all training a new missionary
so we will be getting 3 new missionaries to our District tomorrow at
transfers. So that means I will probably be ending my mission here in
Anthem and my new companion will be my last companion on my mission. I
am so grateful for the Trust in the Lord and Mission President to be
ending the last few months of my mission by training new missionaries
and helping them Learn the things that will make them successful
missionaries in inviting others to Come unto Christ. I went to the
Trainer Meeting for the 3rd time and President Taylor always talks about
the importance of a missionaries 1st companion
in setting the foundation for the missionaries success and setting an
example in Obedience to the mission rules. I hope I get a companion
that is excited to do the Lords work and keep me going with his fresh
energy to share the gospel with our Heavenly Father's children. Well
that was my great week here in the Arizona Phoenix Mission (APM). I
love and miss you all. Take care and have a great week.
Love,
Elder Lance Kuhi Cabral
