Hello
everyone,
This
week was crazy we had our district conference and well being a missionary here sometimes
you don’t get to go to them because you can get transferred before you can go
to it. I left two weeks before the stake conference in Brazzaville so it just
depends on your transfers.
Our
district president gave two wonderful talks. I loved the first. He told a story
how a couple of weeks ago he was visiting his sister and she has pigs and when
he got there that day they talked and then she made something for the pigs and
she put a lot of salt in it and then she called out to the pigs and they came
right to her. He asked how she trained the pigs to learn her voice she
explained how. Then he explained how we need to know our saviors voice and if
we don’t ever come and listen to him we won’t know his voice. His second talk
was about how when he was a child and learning to fish. He said there are two
rules. 1. Don’t make too much noise and 2. Don’t stir up the water. If you do
that the fish won’t be able to see the hook. And then you will go home without
food. As members of the church we need be good examples. If we aren’t good
examples then the people who are looking for the church won’t be able to find
it. I know that it is true by our example we can lead people to the saviors
church or not.
I
am so very grateful to be a missionary and share the gospel of Jesus Christ,
but missionaries need help. They need your examples and your willingness to
share your love of the gospel with others. And then the missionaries can talk
to them and they have a friend in the church is so helpful. I love you all I
hope you have a wonderful week.
Love
Elder Stephens
