Elder Christopher Maughan 11-23-10

          Well today is Tuesday and it’s my p-day because yesterday was the mission tour which I’ll talk about latter. But Debbie will not be getting baptized this week because we still have to teach her some stuff and she will be out of town a lot because her son is getting new casts for his feet. But it’s looking great she has still stopped smoking and I think really she wants to get baptized so I’ll keep you informed about her. Bruce and Jason are doing great! The ward really helps and they just love coming. And they are able to help us a lot with missionary work as well. Haha its great!
            Another cool story is that this week I got sick for a day (I'm all better now) but we had district meeting in the morning and I wasn’t doing so good but then we went to a lesson with a new convert. The lesson wasn’t going so good and I just didn’t want to be there but then I prayed for strength and felt great! I was able to ask some really good questions that brought out a really big concern and testify and bear testimony on it but as soon as I was done I felt terrible a gen, but my comp was able to take it from there. When I got home I feel asleep and the next day was great a gen. it was really cool and I know that through the spirit anything can happen! It was also really weird because I felt perfect until I had said everything that I needed to say. =D  it was fun.
            Then yesterday we had Elder Packer come and talk to us (president Packers oldest son) and he is going to Queen Creek in a few weeks for stake conference so thats cool. But it was really neat and I learned a lot about how the spirit works/ what I need to do to have it with me. He gave some really good talks and I was able to really see some was to become better at my calling. I love how in this gospel there is never an end to how much we can learn and get better. The lord will always give us something new to learn so we can get better but we have to choose to do it, there are no fence sitters in Christ church and as such we have the chance to choose to become better and he is there to help. 
            But I'm really excited for Christmas! And ill be in Smithfield for it because my comp is leaving , this is his last week and transfers are on the 30th so yep… ill be in Smithfield. for at least 6 months of my mission… that’s ¼ of my two years… wow that’s weird…. But get to work haha well I love you all and I really hope everything is going great! You da’ best!  Haha that’s southern I'm getting good at it.
ELDER MAUGHAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
