We ARE His Children

This letter is from June 9th, I was just slow getting it posted :)

Family!

This week has had quite a few firsts for me (even after being out for a whole year!) One of them was teaching 3 Iranian women who have been in the country for less than a month English from the Book of Mormon. It made me realize how little I know about how English works. And the Book of Mormon is old English,m so we'll have to switch to using something else to read out of. Any tips you have on teaching English would be much appreciated! The women are so so nice though, and they're Christian, which is pretty cool. Another first, we've been teaching quite a few Muslim people, and it's actually been really strengthening my faith! I am so so so grateful for our knowledge that there is a prophet on the earth today and that we receive revelation from him. I am also ESPECIALLY grateful for my knowledge that Jesus is the Christ,that he overcame death and sin for US, and that he gave his life up on the cross, voluntarily so that we could follow his example and be resurrected! I have a great respect for the Muslim religion, but I am truly grateful to know Jesus Christ is my Savior and that I am a child of God! These are very important doctrines to know and understand! 

P3 is doing really well! He seriously makes my day. He is reading the Book of Mormon and is doing amazing. Our main struggle with him right now is helping him commit to baptism. He is having a hard time seeing the need to be baptized again, because his previous baptism meant A LOT to him. Keep him in your prayers please! 

All in all, things are going really good. I LOVE learning more about the gospel and applying it more into my life. I love these people here. They are honestly AMAZING! 

Sorry this is short, I ran out of time!! 

 

This is a picture of the canal/rover thing that we pass through on the bike trail to several ward members homes. Isn't it beautiful with the arches??

 Love you all!
