First official week with my new companion and it's been crazy
good to see him again. This is the same Elder P that was my companion in the
MTC. This week has been pretty good! It's been an interesting transition from
companions in an area like this, but it's all good!
So we got this referral from our mission president for this
boy that recently moved into our area. We tried visiting him a ton but we weren't
even able to catch him. Well we finally got him and his story is amazing, he
came here by himself from Mexico and is living here with his aunt and has been
looking for the church for a pretty long time. It felt so amazing to finally
find him and help him come to church. While we were there with him we got to go
to all of his classes and we went over the topic of patience and let's face it
we all need it hahah. Something I came across again, was when you ask for
patience it's not given to you; you're given opportunities to gain patience. I
know our Heavenly Father knows what he wants us to become and at times things
may seem really hard or that it might seem like it's too unbearable, but it is
just for a small time and it will make us into who he wants to be. We read these
few verses in Doctrine and Covenants section 121 verses 7-9… I'll let y'all
read that one ;) hahah it really told me once again that it all has a purpose.
Sorry this email has been super short; hopefully this week will be a lot more
fun filled! Hah, thanks for checking in guys! If you have any questions let me
know!
Love,
Elder Tidwell
