Hey everyone!
I guess I spilled the
big news from last week, but Elder Dibble came
in from Kumamoto last
week! It's way exciting to get to work with him,
because I'd already met
him once when I was in Omuta, but mainly
because he is ready to
work. And after a couple weeks of teaching
nonstop, some slower
paced door knocking has been long missed. Sadly,
he will be heading up to
Fukuoka this week for leadership training
with Elder Barker, so I
won't even get to work with him this week, but
it's a start. Of course,
I'll have another five weeks after this, so
we are ready to roll!
With that said, and the
big news being transfers, the only other news
I have was a surprise
split with Elder Rowe, who is in the neighboring
area. Due to his
companion leaving, I got to go down and keep him
company on transfer day
until his companion came. It was fun for me,
because he was in the
apartment when I was in Yamaguchi, and I loved
getting back together
with him, even if just for a day. We spent the
entire day outside,
talking to everyone we could, and as a result,
there are two more
people in the world that might come to church, that
are willing to meet
missionaries more, to know how they can be blessed
through the gospel,
through living prophets, through personal
communication with God.
Of course, two of 7,000,000,000+ isn't a large
number, but being a
missionary reminds me of a commons quote. "To the
world, you may be but
one person, but to one person, you may be the
world". Obviously a
single missionary can't be himself change
everything in the world,
teach every person. But bit by bit, step by
step, and person by
person the army of God is marching forth. I'm so
glad to be marching as
part of it, to bring His truth to the world.
Sadly, that's really all
I did the past week. Next week is Mother's
Day, so congratulations
to all the amazing mothers in the world! In
honor of that, I might
have more to say then! Love you all!
Elder Mitchell Woodhouse
