Wow this week has been crazy! So much stuff and it all started with elder penny leaving in the middle of the transfer and I needed to find a ride down to the temple to pick up my new comp Elder Butts. His is a great missionary and only 6 weeks younger then me on the mission, but we are already really good friends and just laughing all the time it has been just wonderful. And ever since he has gotten her we have done a LOT of service so we are going to make our own company and so far the name is “Butts and Maughan Mormon Mulching Moving Window Washing Landscaping Game Corporation” and our slogan is “we’ll do everything except the way you want it” haha so let me explain:
Saturday: we mulched at the church then right after we went and helped a member wash widow for about 4 hours (that was long but he really trust us now)
Monday: he helped another member move 4 engine blocks and a lot of other stuff
Tuesday: we helped another member dig up his front yard
And then we also have done a lot of little things for everyone we meet o and the game part comes form the fact that in elder butts and my free time (which isn’t a lot) have made a Book of Mormon Risk game! Haha its really cool but that is our company and it is great! And I'm so glad Elder Butts is here the spirit is so much stronger and our lessons have so much more power! But so we where in a lesson last night and we are teaching about forgiveness and I start talking about praying and the power of it, when all the sudden I say something really random on the lines of “you need to pray about everything even those days you wake up and really feel like you don’t want to go to work, you need to pray” and after saying that I was like that was really random…. But then Bro Key (the investigator) is like well two weeks ago that happened to me that I really didn’t want to go to church….lalala…. and it really helped the lesson and for them to feel the spirit. It was wonderful and I'm so glad that the spirit can do such amazing things through me and all I have to do it open my mouth… I JUST LOVE BEING A MISSIONARY!!!!
So to day I just got back from the temple and that’s why I'm sending the e-mail now because its our p-day and it was so wonderful! The spirit was so strong and I cant wait to be home where I can go to the temple all the time! And another great thing that is going to be going on is this Saturday Elder Scott of the quorum of the twelve apostles is coming to our mission! I will be able to talk to a prophet seers and revelator! Its going to be amazing! I'm so glad I'm in the true church and I have the chance to meet some one with the same priesthood authority of the twelve apostles that Christ called when he was on the earth!
I love you all so much and thank you all for all you do!
ELDER MAUGHAN
