I am doing great! Everything is going well and we just had transfers and I found out that I am staying another transfer here in Murrieta! Yay! I love it here! And my companion and I are getting along so, it should be a great 6 more weeks ;) I’m excited! We also had the whole stake get split. Our ward boundaries changed a little bit but it’s good because now we have a little bit of new area to work with. We also have a few new members, so it should be good! We also had a baptism this week, it was a kid that was 8 and got baptized but we taught him and a few of the family members because they are less-active. We thought that maybe the baptism of their son and the missionary lessons would help them a bit, but it seems as though they are stuck in a bit of a routine. It must be hard to get out of it once you have not been going to church for so long. Man I can’t imagine what I would do without the church!
The Doctrine of Christ is so simple really if you think about it. None of us is perfect. When we sin or make mistakes, it brings feelings of guilt and shame into our lives. When we repent and take the sacrament the feelings from the mistakes that we made are removed and our sins are forgotten and forgiven.
Isn’t that easy? I am so thankful, and I feel so blessed that I have the opportunity to be on a mission, and to be so fortunate to truly understand the doctrine of Christ as described in 2 Nephi 31. I think if we, as members of the church, studied that chapter over and over again for years it still wouldn’t be enough. Until you truly understand the concept. It’s so profound yet so simple!
Well have a great week! Love you!
