What is Love??

This past week was some traveling and not as productive I would have liked.  We traveled to San Pablo for Zone Leader training meetings, which took a couple days.  Then, when we got back to our area, we had district council meetings, so that took a big chuck of the day as well.

Right now we are working with many of the members, who are doing great in helping with finding many former investigators and less active members who we can work with and teach.  It’s so great. One of the less active members, referred a friend of theirs, who turned out to be a former investigator.  She is so excited to learn and meet with us.  She had a desire to be baptized, so that great!!!  She then referred her cousin who we will start working with shortly.  It’s great how the Lord works to lead us to those whom he had prepared.

Junior, who we have been working with and was schedule for baptism this past Saturday, didn’t get baptized because he is going to be moving about an hour south of us.  We’ve made sure he knows the missionaries in that area, and plans on getting baptized when he gets there.  We were able to visit with some others, and just need to help them come to church.

So, kind of funny story…In church, we were in the young men’s class and they were talking aspects of missionary work and the teacher asked “what is love” and the young men sat there, stone faced and didn’t know how to answer.  The only thought that went through my head was the song…..and now you are all singing it….right!!!????

My thought this week comes from my reading in Jesus the Christ. I can't remember the scripture reference but, remember, even if the Lord takes time to answer prayer, pray continuously, He will answer. Have faith and know that He is there for you!! He wants to help, sometimes He just wants to see if you will always turn to him!

Sorry – no new pictures.  Maybe next week,
