Hey
Fam,
This
week began with a shock, I was told that I would be training new missionary by
the name of Elder Lambert from Arizona. When it came time to meet the new
missionaries, here walks in a familiar face. We played freshman basketball
together and we shared a lot of the same friends. So we instantly bonded, same
interest, same desire to do the work and same height (I wish). We drove back
and have had one of the most productive weeks since I have been here.
One
experience that we had this week happened, as we were going through some former
investigators we came across a lady and her 24 year old son who have family
that are members in Namibia. It seems like they were written off by other missionaries
because of some issues that they were having so we had met with them and had a
great lesson with both her and her son. They are struggling to make ends meet
and she is very sick at the moment, but we taught them about commandment
keeping and obedience. We promised him that if he started to live the gospel
that his life would turn around for the better. Sunday came and he came to
church and after while visiting with
him told us that he hasn't felt as happy in his entire life! Sometimes we all
just need a little reminder that it is the simple things like obedience that
bring us the most joy. Please keep praying for him. I'll take a picture with
him this week, he has some sweetest dreads I’ve seen here!
I love you all and am
sorry for a short email this week; we have to move someone today so our time is
short :)
Have an awesome week!
Love Elder Broadhead
