Elder Oaks gave the devotional on tuesday night! It was so amazing! He
talked about teaching by the Spirit and the importance of the Sacrament
and the renewal of covenants, as well as teaching people not lessons.
For me that has been one that takes a bit longer to become good at
because of the language. However, now I'm able to ask questions and
change subjects if necessary in order to teach to the investigators
needs. New Elders joined our zone this week. Those I know are Elder
Rackham, Tibbits, and Eberhard. Two of our Elders flew out to the Ghana
MTC once their Visas came in and that was hard because we all had become
so close, but we know they'll be amazing and that we'll all keep in
touch. It was a great week for Elder Seelos and I when it came to
teaching investigators. Hospice is thinking about baptism, also we got
him to pray with us! Nathan is understanding and starting to develop
belief in the Plan of Salvation. It's so amazing to see the change in
their Spirits when we teach them something they had questions about. You
see them light up and you know they're starting to believe. Sunday's
are the best because the Spirit is so strong! Elder Seelos and I taught
the Priesthood lesson with our district and the Haitian district on
Faith and we read and discussed Ether 12. It's amazing how much more
powerful scriptures are when you read and discuss them with others
because you hear testimonies and how they have impacted their lives and
it really builds your own testimony in Christ and on the scriptures.
French is coming slowly but it's coming! I'm so grateful I took five
years, however I still have so much to learn, but I've got 2 past tenses
down, two future tenses down, and sorta understand the conditional
tense! I'm learning so quickly and so is my district. The gift of
tongues is so impactful and so influential.
Je sais que
Jésus-Christ est notre Sauveur. Je sais que Jésus-Christ a été tués pour
nous et que il a pris nos péchés. Je sais que Père Céleste est notre
Père et il nous aime. Je sais que Le Livre de Mormon est la parole de
Dieu et que il est vrai. Je sais que l'Église de Jésus-Christ des Saints
des Derniers Jours est vrai. Je vous aime et je vous manque. Étre
sécurité!
Amour,
Elder DiReda
