Hey everyone! I had a great week last week! Don't have much time but
I'll try to update you on he highlights of my week:
We had a bunch of great lessons! We have three people getting baptized
next weekend so we've been busy teaching them and making sure the
baptism is all planned for and set :) then we have another baptism
the next week, so we're pretty excited! had zone conference with our
mission president which was awesome. Me and my companion and two other
Zone Leaders gave a training for it. We talked about teaching people
and not lessons and how important it is to teach the people and not
get caught up in the bullet points of each lesson. It's so important
because the gospel of Jesus Christ helps us with our individual needs!
Today for p-day we went golfing with some other elders that live next
to us, it was a blast! I played horribly but it was still fun :) I
also may have crashed a golf cart a little bit. :/ It was SUPER
embarrassing but super funny too. Someone must be up with our
companionship because yesterday my companion accidentally broke a
coffee table.
We have had a great week! We have knocked a lot of doors without
results this week trying to contact people but we have also had some
great lessons and opportunities to serve!
Love you all,
Elder Baxter

"For Latter-day Saints, Jesus Christ is joy! That is why our missionaries leave their homes to preach His gospel. Their goal is not to increase the number of Church members. Rather, our missionaries teach and baptize to bring joy to the people of the world!" -Elder Russell M. Nelson
