Dear Family,
How was your week? Mine was fantastic! Happy anniversary Mom
and Dad. And Happy Birthday for you Dad. Hope you have a good.... 50th? Not
yet. But I love you both and hope you have a great week!
We had interviews with Pres. Dalton this last week. It was a
very good experience. We talked about the mission, family, goals for after the
mission and everything. Transfers are next week, I´ll let you know of any
changes.
We had a baptism this last week. His name is Darius. He´s
dating a member of the ward and had been going to church on his own. He said
that last week at church he received an answer. He felt peace. His baptism was
very special. We´re taking them to visit the temple this weekend, to start
thinking about the next steps. He´s anxious to take the name of his
grandparents to do baptisms. He is a great guy.
The world cup is over, so that´s nice. Not as many
distractions now. And things are basically back to normal.
It´s incredible to think that I´m never alone on the
mission, well I´ll always have my companion, but in DC 84:88 it says that there
are angels round about us to bear us up. I learned recently that those angels
are not necessarily strangers. Why would the Lord send angels that didn´t have
anything to do with our lives? I believe that they are the people we love. Our
ancestors, descendents and the family of our investigators.
For behold, angels are declaring it unto many at this time in our
land; and this is for the purpose of preparing the hearts of the children of men to receive
his word at the time of his coming in his glory.
Love
you all!
Elder
Barker
