This week is going to be transfers, but I am staying here in Appleton for some more time!! So feel free to send mail all you want cause I will be at the same apartment! Sadly tho, my companion Elder Fronk is leaving... He is going to my first area in Green Bay though, so hes going to a good place! So my new companion will be Elder Raymer, and I don't know anything about him, so it will be fun to meet some one new! I am super excited that I get to stay here in Appleton, its a great area, and there is so much work to do here! Speaking of work, we set a baptismal date this week with a lady named Kim. She has been taught a ton before and just doesn't think she can say that she knows that the Book of Mormon is true. So we are trying to help her get an answer for herself! It has been pretty fun to be able to teach her! Other than that this week has been pretty normal, I went on an exchange with Elder Parker, but he came into our area so it wasn't too different!
Spiritual thought for ya:
Alma 26:12 says:
"Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever."
There are a lot of things we do, especially as missionaries, that it seems like we should get credit for. But we have to realize, like Ammon does in this situation, that there is nothing that we can do without God. And I love the fact that "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me" Remember that you can do anything through Christ and that you NEED Him in all that you do!!
Hope you all have a great week!
Elder Reynolds
