Hey this was a party week (haha) so listen up!
This week we did a lot of contacting to try and get some new
people to teach. We have been dry lately, but we have still been working hard
to get more and more people unto Christ. We had a lesson with this guy named
Theodore that I met on the street and it went pretty well. He is a young, law
student who is a big truth-seeker with huge questions. So we met with him and
tried to answer his questions as best as we could. He had deep, meaningful
questions about God and Christ and why everything is the way it is. We shared
the message of the Restoration with him and gave him a Book of Mormon and
promised him that he will receive answers to his questions. The only problem is
that he is shaky with prayer and its importance so we pray that he gains a
testimony of prayer.
We visited some great members this week, mainly to eat food
haha. We visited Daisy again because she cooked us some Filipino food, which
was the highlight of the food this week haha. Moral of the story, serve your
members and they will serve you ;)
So this week was my birthday and I'm very thankful for all
the notes people sent this week. You all are amazing and I am very thankful for
each and everyone of you. Keep being the awesome people you are and you will be
blessed. So on my birthday I received the most interesting presents probably
ever. Some missionaries blessed me with corn haha and then this Orthdox Priest
named Alin (who is a great friend of ours) gave me an icoana of I think Jesus.
Oh well, it was super cool and I enjoyed it. We then had a really fun time
contacting with President Hettinger and he bought me some ice cream which was
great and then we had a talent show. Many fun acts and many fun times. We
really had a fun time partying and having a good time.
Work hard, play hard as people say. Don't stop working hard,
but don't forget to enjoy life and the many great things you have been given. I
love you all and have a great week!
Va iubesc,
Elder Bowen
