That time of the week has come again where you all get to hear from your favorite Elder :) Things are going great up here as usual here in El Paso de Robles!! We've gotten a lot of awesome work done this week, so are the highlights :)
1. We spent most of our week this week contacting everyone we could on the ward list. We've met a LOT of awesome people, and there's several people that we're hoping to start working with. Hopefully we'll be able to help them recapture the Spirit they once felt and bring them back to the fold! We still have a ton of people to go, but so far its gone well!
2. We had an awesome lesson with a LA that we've been trying to get ahold of FOREVER. We talked about the importance of the gospel in our lives and he said that he really wants to recapture the excitement he had when he was baptized a couple years ago. And guess what??? He was t church yesterday!! So that was awesome!!
3. On a less awesome note we had to get our tire fixed because we ran over a nail :P But we ended up talking to this really cool guy at the tire store and had a really good gospel discussion with him! The Lord works in mysterious ways :)
As for the spiritual thought, I just wanted to share something really quick :) So the mission goal for this transfer is becoming more consecrated missionaries. As I thought about that, I read an awesome talk by Elder Christofferson. After reading it, I was able to identify 5 things that really define a truly consecrated disciple of Christ:
1.Humility
2.Repentance
3.Charity
4. Servitude
5.Dedication
I'd encourage all of you to find ways that you can consecrate yourself further to our Savior's work :)
I hope you all have a good week!! Keep on keeping on :)
Love,
Elder Brennan Jon Rosenlof
Here's a picture with his birthday cake. He accused me of stalking him.
