Yep.

Okay, well this week was a dive bomb. Opposition slammed us hard with
our boy that is supposed to get baptized this weekend. His wife
straight up cracked his jaw because she has sleeping probs, and
doesn't like getting woken up. So, they couldn't get married this
week. The Micronesian family almost dropped us Friday, but we saved
it. Hopefully we can bring them back into progress this week. My
companion has to have nose surgery so we aren't sure if he will be in
the field much longer, sad day cause he's my first son in my own
posterity, and a darn good missionary. I have never had such great
success.

We had our Christmas conference on Tuesday. It was legit, (I attached
a video, please excuse my terrible voice) I hope I don't get
transferred this area is flaming right now!

I had a lady try and tear me to pieces about the policy on gay
marriage. She was a less active member, and I didn't know them so we
contacted them, and the husband answered and was super nice, and we
had some good topics, and then she came busting down the stairs and
just started rattling off some anti, and random stuff that isn't even
doctrine. I let her go on for about 15 minutes. I stood there and
waited. Then I said this "when you joined the church, you felt by the
Holy Ghost that there was a prophet called, right?" She said "yes, I
did". I said "then you can't deny that feeling, the Holy Ghost doesn't
lie". And she turned around and walked away. I felt the deepest
compassion in my heart for that women. And I pray that she feels
spirit witness to her of the truthfulness of this gospel.


I love the Lord. He has been my strength this week. No matter what
kind of curve ball is thrown at me, I can remember that he is still
there. I remember what he went through for me.
