Dear Mom,
This past week I can hardly
remember. It wasn't the best of weeks - we only taught one lesson with all
others not home or what not - but we did have zone conference in Canberra
which was great. The assistants to the president spoke on listening and
asking questions in teaching situations (which are found in Preach my
Gospel). It was really good because you need the investigator and less
active to talk and you need to really hear what they are saying so that you
can come closer to knowing their needs and showing that you care.
For the highlight of the week we
met Mitch, who came to stay with Brother Shoobridge's friend, Tom. We were
able to see him at the gaming activity that happens at the family history
center. Right before he left we visited Tom so we could see Mitch
off, and we had the chance to give him a Book of Mormon as a gift,
wrote our testimonies in it, talk about the Book of Mormon
and the restoration, and he was open and said he'd read them. That was
pretty awesome.
We're emailing late because we
had to come up to Canberra today because Elder Balenaveikau is being
emergency transferred so I'm getting a new companion, Elder Osmani, tomorrow
and will drive down to Merimbula either tomorrow or the next day
depending on if we do trade-offs.
Well that sums up the week.
Love,
Elder J. Cederlof
