Well, West Lethbridge is as good as
ever, and it'll be that way for at least another six weeks! Neither
Elder Law nor myself will be transferred this transfer, which is a
little weird, but also awesome. I've loved this area so much, and it'll
be great to see how much the Lord will give us as we continue to work
hard and try to find the work He's prepared for us.
Not too much to update ya'll on this week. It's been tough to
find times to meet with people, and Randy, sadly, dropped us this week.
He's a great guy, and we'll hope for good things in the coming weeks
for him.
Sam didn't make it to church this week, and some things came up
that will prevent him from being baptized this week. We'll keep
working with him, however, and hope that he keeps progressing and
working towards that covenant with his Heavenly Father.
Rob is doing just as fantastically as ever! We were able to
meet with him once this week, and taught him the Law of Tithing.
Apparently, he's been asking his fiancee when he can start paying his
tithing. They're even going through a pretty tough time financially
right now, and he's still so willing and excited to do everything he can
to keep his Father in Heaven's commandments.
There was also some exciting news this week regarding the
husband of one of the members of our primary presidency. I
told you a little about him last week, but he was at church this past
Sunday...and stayed all three hours! It seems like he's making really
great progress, and we're hoping to see something come of it all soon.
This week, we taught Gospel Principles...again, and the lesson
was on the Creation. It was actually really interesting and somewhat
challenging to teach on it. There was one scripture that stood out to
me particularly as we were talking about all the incredible things our
Heavenly Father has given us. It's D&C 59:18-19:"Yea, all things
which come of the earth, in the season thereof, are made for the benefit
and the use of man, both to please the eye and to gladden the heart;
Yea, for food and for raiment, for taste and for smell, to strengthen
the body and to enliven the soul." This Earth and everything on it, in
it, above and under it was created for us. Our Father in Heaven loves
us so much, that He has given us this incredibly beautiful and useful
world, and I, for one, am so incredibly grateful for all of it.
Well, my beautiful friends and family, have a fantastic week!
Good luck with all you're doing, and always remember how much your
Father loves you. Never forget that, and you'll be able to get through
anything. Be good! Have fun!
I love you all so much,
Elder Hafen
