"Kinda Sad Saying Goodbye to Them"

Mon July 1, 2019

Hello family! It’s getting cold! I have been using my big jacket pretty consistently. This week has been good! President and Hermana Smith left on Thursday. On Tuesday our zone had interviews and then a lunch and testimony meeting to say goodbye. It was actually kinda sad saying goodbye to them. They have been great to have as a mission president.

I remember one time I had an interview with President and he asked me if I thought I was converted to the Lord. I started to explain how I have had amazing spiritual experiences and moments where my testimony has grown so much. After I had finished talking he looked at me in the eyes and said, “that is a beautiful testimony Elder Moe, but I asked you if you are converted.”

Haha, that made me think. President and Hermana Smith really helped me learn how to set goals and stick to them. But back to the conversion thing, sit and think about that. Are you fully converted to the Lord Jesus Christ? What does converted even mean? And what is the difference between conversion and a testimony? Just things to think about.  Elder Bednar 2012 - "Converted Unto the Lord"

So Presidente Zuniga is here! I haven’t met him yet but I’m excited!

We basically dropped a lot of investigators last week so we don’t really have a lot to teach right now. Saturday we started contacting like crazy. We were talking with everyone! And for some reason it seemed like nobody wanted to hear anything. There was one guy that even borderline started yelling at us next to a park. Days like that really strengthen my testimony because no matter what they say… I know I’M RIGHT!! HAHAHA! I love being a member of the Church of Jesus Christ!! It’s the best! 

Yesterday we were able to find some good people that we are going to try to work with this week!

Love you fam!
